Chapter 843
The two of them strolled to the end of the corridor, looking out the window at the small hospital garden, a place for the patients to get some air
Ellinor was feeling a bit bored, so she turned to Theo, lazily wrapped her arms around his sturdy waist, buried her face in his chest, and started acting all lovey–dovey like a
kid
Ellinor made the first move, which Theo was naturally happy to reciprocate, but he also had the sharp sense to notice that something was off.
“You feeling blue?
Ellinor leaned into the guy, listening to his strong heartbeat, “Theo, are all men dogs?”
What?”
Theo furrowed his brows. Even though there was a near ten–year age gap between them and some things got lost in translation, he could tell dogs‘ wasn’t a compliment.
Ellinor’s eyes were empty, and she had a hint of sarcasm on her lips, “Take Mr. Howard for instance, he’s from a good family and well–spoken. Yet he cheated on his wife. He ditched her, married the other woman, and now he’s started giving her the cold shoulder.
Do men always think the grass is greener on the other side?”
Theo got her drift and answered in his deep voice, “Relax, I’ve only got eyes for you.”
After hearing him be so serious, Ellinor was a bit at a loss, and she made a face, “That’s just because we’re still in the honeymoon phase. Give it some time, you might start to find me annoying”
Theo lifted his hand, gently ruffling her hair. “We’re still in the honeymoon phase? Haven’t we already made it official? What more do you want?”
Hearing that, Ellinor blushed and rolled her eyes, feeling a bit peeved, “I’m talking about emotional connection, not that!”
Theo slightly raised his eyebrows, “What?”
Ellinor was so mad that she let go of his hand and gave him a firm punch, “Theo, you’re so disgusting. I’m not talking to you!”
With that, she turned around to leave.
Theo extended his long arm, pulled her back into him, and held her tightly. “Enough, don’t overthink it. I know you’re upset about McNeil Howard’s affair because it reminds you of your mom. But don’t worry. I’m past my playboy days, I know what I want. You’re the only one I want in this life”
He held Ellinor tightly, making her feel warm and secure.
She loved his mature scent
“Theo, lets make a deal If one day you’re tired of me, you can look for someone new, but you can’t cheat on me before we break up. I hate being lied to, and I especially hate being betrayed. If you’re tired of me, just tell me straight up, I won’t cling onto you. We can part ways peacefully, then you can go find your new squeeze”
Theo didn’t like hearing her talk about breaking up, “Stop daydreaming! I won’t break up with you, and you’re not allowed to break up with me“”
Ellinor had to admit that she really liked him, and she believed that he was sincere in what he said to her.
But she wasn’t a hopeless romantic, she didn’t naively believe that there was such a thing as eternal love in this world.
So, she still insisted on her point of view, “Theo, I think we should discuss some possible situations, like if for any reason we break up in the future, I should have custody of the kids. I think we should also sign a prenuptial agreement.”
Theo frowned, “Do you really have to do this?”
Ellinor nodded, “This way I’ll feel more at ease.”
Theo squinted, “What if I don’t want to sign that agreement?”
Ellinor looked at him, “Then that means you think there’s a chance you might break up with me, that’s why you’re afraid this agreement might come true
