Chapter 919
A deep male voice echoed from behind the crowd, followed by steady footsteps as he came closer.
People turned around and were completely stunned by his handsome, flawless face.
Especially Sheila. It wasn’t her first time seeing Theo, but her heart still raced uncontrollably at the sight of him.
This man was once almost her husband; he almost took her as his bride. If it weren’t for Ellinor, she would be Mrs. Blanchet.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, but she could only watch as he walked over to Ellinor, elegantly sat down, and even casually took a sip from Ellinor’s coffee.
His affectionate gestures toward Ellinor were enough to make anyone green with envy.
Even the girl who had been sobbing with her head down looked up in shock at the handsome man sitting next to Ellinor.
Yet, Ellinor seemed to have little reaction. She just glanced at him and quietly withdrew her gaze.
Theo glanced at the uninvited guests in his living room, squinting lazily. “If you’re here to badmouth my wife, you better leave now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.” His tone was calm and steady, but the invisible pressure he emitted made people shiver.
The Mendoza family members, having witnessed Theo’s protectiveness towards Ellinor, fell silent. Only Sheila continued to daydream.
Despite being intimidated by Theo’s aura, Ellinor’s high school friend’s mother didn’t back down. Gathering her courage, she spoke up. “Sir, you must be Ellinor’s current husband, right?”
Theo gave the middle–aged woman a cold glance. He didn’t like the word ‘current‘ she used in front of ‘husband.” “I’m her husband. What do you want?”
His intimidating aura made the woman shrink back. She stuttered. “Mr. Blanchet, your timing is impeccable! I’m not here to tarnish your wife’s reputation. I’m here for justice because she once replaced my daughter’s admission test scores, causing my daughter to lose her college opportunity.”
Theo remained expressionless, gently placing his hand on Ellinor’s shoulder and squeezing it, clearly indicating his position.
“I heard some of what you just said when I came in. My wife asked you for evidence, which is reasonable. But it seems like you don’t have anything solid.”
Under Theo’s stern gaze, the woman was a bit flustered, “I’ve already said, the evidence is Ellinor’s high school attendance record. She would always skip classes to hang out with some delinquents; she never focused on her studies. How could she possibly get into Creston University?
Mr. Blanchet, I know it’s hard for you to hear this, but I’m telling the truth. Ellinor’s behavior in high school wasn’t good; she’s not a
Theo remained expressionless, his eyes deep, “I’ve already said that I know best whether my wife is a good girl.”
nice girl. You might have been fooled…”
The woman was surprised by Theo’s trust in Ellinor, but she was not convinced. She rolled her eyes, “Mr. Blanchet, I guess you might’ve judged Ellinor’s purity based on some details from your wedding night, right? But don’t be fooled by appearances. With today’s advanced medical technology, some promiscuous girls would have surgeries to ‘restore‘ certain things before getting married!”
