Chapter 894
Ellinor said, “My kin.”
Chase frowned, then chuckled, “Ellinor, we grew up together in the countryside. Who are you kidding? You don’t have any relatives! I bet it’s Mr. Blanchet’s relatives, right? Ellinor, you treat Mr. Blanchet’s family like your own!”
Ellinor glared at him, “You’re not allowed to touch her. She’s a good girl, not someone you can mess around with. Stay out of trouble.”
Even though Chase was scared of getting hit by Ellinor, he pouted, a little unhappy, “Ellinor, what’re you implying? So, she’s a good girl, and I’m not a good guy?”
Ellinor watched this guy grow up. She knew him better than anyone!
Ellinor didn’t have the energy to deal with Chase. She got up and left, “I’m off!”
Chase followed, “Ellinor, wait up! My car’s parked on the other side. Let’s go together; I’ll give you a ride!”
Without looking back, Ellinor waved him off, “No need, I’ll take a cab!”
Watching Ellinor’s retreating figure, Chase shrugged helplessly. That’s Ellinor, always low-key. She didn’t even own a car!
Chase swiftly redirected his attention to his phone upon hearing two pings.
It was a picture from Belinda, four dishes and a soup, “Boss, your lunch!”
Chase casually sent a “hungry” emoji back to her.
So, this girl was Theo’s relative? How’d she end up in their company?
Chase put away his phone and stepped out from behind the truck, only to see Theo standing there with his hands in his pockets, staring at him expressionlessly.
Chase paused for a moment, then regained his composure. He smiled, “Mr. Blanchet, are you here to check on our work?”
Ellinor wasn’t far from the construction site when a black car pulled over next to her.
She turned to look. The car’s rear window slowly rolled down, and Patricia’s innocent face appeared, beaming brightly at her. She seemed completely unbothered by the embarrassment of being exposed at the hospital a few days ago.
“Ellinor, what a coincidence, running into you here!”
Ellinor nodded and said, “Quite a coincidence.”
Patricia asked with a sweet smile, “Where are you headed, Ellinor? Can I give you a lift?”
Ellinor didn’t want to deal with her, “Thanks, but I don’t need it.”
With that, Ellinor walked off, ignoring Patricia.
However, Patricia didn’t give up. She instructed her driver to go slow, trailing behind Ellinor at a leisurely pace.
“Ellinor, get in the car. Let me give you a ride! I’ve missed you so much these past few days!”
Doesn’t Patricia feel nauseous spouting such nonsense?
Ellinor wasn’t a fool, and there was no way she would believe Patricia’s lies about missing her.
