Chapter 726
When Veronica said this, Ellinor had already plonked herself on the living room couch, turning a blind eye to Veronica’s sarcastic remarks and just focusing on ordering takeout on her phone.
Veronica felt like she was punching cotton. Nothing she said could get to Ellinor, and it was super frustrating for her.
She raised her voice and continued, “You’re taking ages just to order some grub? With the money in some people’s hands, they probably can only afford the cheapest dish!”
Patricia was about to burst into laughter, but she still pretended to be sympathetic, “Veronica, don’t be like this. We should respect other people’s lifestyles”
Veronica snorted as she rolled her eyes, “But I’m just stating the facts! She’s just a country bumpkin, she’s not even in the same league as us! Even if she can attract my brother now, their values are not aligned, and they won’t last! She’s really clueless! How could she still live in our house?”
Ellinor couldn’t care less about Veronica’s sarcasm. She had already placed her order and paid. At the same time, Theo also received a payment notification.
Last night, Theo gave her all his passwords and several private bank cards, indicating his intention to spend the rest of his life with her
Although Ellinor was not short of money, it felt pretty good to occasionally use her boyfriend’s money.
While Veronica was still spouting off, Ellinor acted as if she hadn’t heard a thing. She lounged on the couch, turned on the TV, and waited for her food.
Suddenly, a glass of milk was held in front of her.
Ellinor looked up and saw Patricia offering it.
Patricia was smiling gently and innocently. “Ellinor, your food might take a while, right? Have some milk first, don’t starve yourself!”
Ellinor looked at the glass of milk with a clear lipstick mark on it. It was obviously Patricia’s leftover.
Offering someone else your leftover milk? Patricia sure was an interesting character.
‘Ellinor didn’t get angry, she gently pushed away Patricia’s milk, flashed her a smile, and said, “Thanks for the offer, but I’m not that hungry yet. You can have the milk
Disappointed, Patricia sat next to her and cheekily asked, “Ellinor, why won’t you drink it? Is it because I drank from it? I thought you wouldn’t mind, considering you accepted my ex.”
With a raised eyebrow, Ellinor glanced at her, “Your ex?”
Patricia laughed heartily, “Yeah, isn’t Theo my ex? You accepted him, but when it comes to milk, you suddenly mind?”
Ellinor looked at Patricia and asked, “Did he ever touch you?”
Patricia nodded. “Of course. Do you think Theo never had a girlfriend before you? That’s impossible! How could a guy like Theo, with no shortage of female admirers, possibly be single till his thirties?”
Ellinor stared at Patricia seriously, and went silent for a while, making Patricia think that she believed her and was mad.
Then, Ellinor suddenly burst into laughter as if she had heard a joke, “Ms. Howard, you tried to make me believe that you had a child with Theo, now you want me to believe you guys were intimate? You think I’d believe you?”
Patricia’s face stiffened for a moment, then she also started laughing sarcastically, “Even if he hadn’t been with me, do you think a vibrant man like Theo could’ve
only dated you?”
Ellinor smiled lightly, ‘I confirmed it in my own way; he indeed only had me.”
Patricia frowned. “You confirmed? How did you confirm? I know how women can confirm, but how can men? Don’t fool yourself, Ellinor!”
Ellinor chuckled softly, “How I confirmed is not something I can tell you, that’s Theo’s personal privacy! Anyway, I’m very sure Theo is pure and innocent!”
The confidence and determination on Ellinor’s face, along with the sweetness that leaked out unintentionally, were enough to make Patricia’s face turn sour in an
instant
Patricia’s grip on the milk glass tightened, as if she wanted to crush the glass and tear Ellinor to pieces.
Patricia still remembered how she purposely got drunk and stripped naked in front of Theo, but Theo didn’t even spare her a glance, let alone touch her.
