Chapter 910
After Ellinor finished speaking, she left, having the servant take her out for a bit.
Theo, knowing the complicated relationship between Ellinor and her family, felt a twinge of worry. He stood up, planning to accompany her outside.
*Theo!
Just as he was about to leave, he heard his grandfather’s stern voice stop him.
Theo turned to look at Putnam, “What’s up, Grandpa?”
Putnam, expressionlessly turned his wheelchair in a different direction, “Uh huh, come to my room for a sec. I’ve got something to ask you.”
Theo glanced at Ellinor’s retreating back, thought for a moment, and finally decided to go to his grandfather’s room first.
When Ellinor got to the door of the Blanchet family’s home, she saw Sheila Mendoza’s old–school red sports car.
Sheila also spotted her, and her heavily made–up eyes instantly widened.
Ellinor had the servant who was following her go back to his own work, then she left the Blanchet family’s home by herself to meet with the Mendozas, whom she had not seen for a long time.
“Wow! Ellinor, long time no see!”
Sheila got out of her sports car and strutted toward Ellinor in her towering high heels, looking quite smug.
Ellinor watched her calmly, not batting an eyelid, “You need something?”
Sheila gave Ellinor a once–over from head to toe, then scoffed, “It seems like being Mrs. Blanchet isn’t as glamorous as I thought. Tassumed you’d be decked out in designer gear and dripping in gold. Turns out you’re still as plain as ever!”
Ellinor was very familiar with Sheila’s superficiality and couldn’t care less about her uninteresting jabs.
However, while she didn’t care, someone else did. A figure dashed out from the Blanchet family’s home, shouting back at Sheila.
“Who are you calling plain? With your outdated designer clothes, you think you’re so chic and classy? How outdated!”
Veronica, who had dashed out, cussed at Sheila, who was taken aback. She looked at Veronica unhappily, noticing her expensive, latest designer clothes, making her bravado deflate a bit, “I was only talking about Ellinor, not you.”
Veronica was always arrogant, “Even talking about Ellinor is unacceptable! Ellinor is my family, and you’re not even fit to mention her! Look at yourself!”
Sheila’s face turned sour, but she didn’t dare offend the key members of the Blanchet family. So she took a deep breath, swallowed her anger, and without looking at Veronica, she turned to Ellinor
“Ellinor, it’s not just me who’s here today. My parents also came to see you.”
Ellinor looked at her calmly, “Skip the small talk; why are you here?”
“You have the nerve to ask?” Sheila scoffed, getting angrier.
She despised Ellinor. Because of Ellinor, she went from a promising actress to a nobody who begged for acting opportunities.
And Ellinor was living comfortably as Mrs. Blanchet. How dare she!
Ellinor raised her eyebrows slightly, “If I don’t ask, how would I know what you’re here for?”
