Chapter 799
Damn! He wondered when they suddenly started talking about him.
Alyssa grinned at him, “I guess he also wants to go out and explore his other options. Men! They always get real at the last minute!”
Dean frowned, “That’s not it! Honey, what on earth are you talking about? We’ve been together a lifetime; do you really think I’m that type of guy?”
Alyssa scoffed, “If you’re not, then what kind of nonsense are you teaching Ellinor?”
Deanell silent.
In truth, he just couldn’t stand the thought of such a good kid like Ellinor marrying into the Blanchet family. He just wanted to save the kid!
Dean sighed and turned to Ellinor, “Listen, Ellinor, your Grandma Alyssa and I are different. We grew up together, we’re the same age; we understand each other deeply; and we truly love each other.
But Theo is almost ten years older than you; you don’t even know him. You have no idea how crafty an old man can be; it’s not something you can figure out quickly.
I just think you’re still young; you should choose carefully and find someone who suits you.”
Ellinor knew the Howard family and the Blanchet family didn’t get along, so Dean’s dislike for Theo was predictable.
She didn’t give much thought to the old man’s words, answered casually, and then sought to excuse herself, “Grandma Alyssa, can I have some cookies? Mr. Howard asked me to help him with his homework; I could bring some cookies to him.”
“Of course, take as many as you want! Ellinor, we’re sorry to have you over and then ask you to tutor Byran.”
Ellinor smiled, “It’s alright. I knew him before; helping him is like a review of what I’ve learned before; otherwise, I would forget.”
Alyssa, full of admiration, nodded and smiled, “Good girl, off you go! We’ll call you for dinner.”
“Okay!”
Then Ellinor took a plate of cookies and left.
As she stepped out of the room, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Dean was determined to stop her from being with Theo, and Alyssa seemed very suspicious of her identity, constantly investigating her background.
If she didn’t find an excuse to leave, she might be exposed.
In the room, after Ellinor left, the expressions of the two elders of the Howard family became serious.
Dean frowned and asked, “Honey, you just asked Ellinor a lot of questions about her background; even if she had a mole in the middle of her eyebrows when she was a child, are you suspecting…”
Alyssa did not deny it and said, “Don’t you think the girl’s eyes resemble Pearl’s?”
As Ellinor was carrying the cookies upstairs to find Byran, she suddenly caught a strong smell of perfume.
The perfume didn’t smell bad, she could tell it was a carefully crafted, high–end perfume.
However, no matter how good the perfume, if overused, it could still irritate the eyes.
Following the smell, she looked up just as the impeccably dressed Patricia was coming downstairs.
“Ellinor, what are you doing at my house?”
