    Chapter 163


    In the moment of emergency, she pped Theo to free herself.


    Hearing the sound of them leaving, she breathed a sigh of relief


    Suddenly, the phone rang again, and it was Chase calling


    Ellinor furrowed her brow and answered the call


    Chase’s teasing voice came through. “Ms. Mendoza, is that you? Some guy just said you’re married, I


    don’t believe it! Quickly tell me it’s not true…”


    Ellinor interrupted him irritably, “Enough pretending, it’s me!”


    Chase paused for a moment, then immediately resumed his usual tone andughed, “So, how is it?”


    “How is what?”


    “You know, any progress between you and Mr. nchet? Was he jealous just now?”


    Ellinor understood his intentions and warned sternly, “Stop doing these silly things in the future! I’ve


    said it before, between Theo and me, it’s only a three–month working rtionship, nothing more!”


    Though she emphasized it verbally, her mind was in turmoil!


    She couldn’t forget what Theo had just done to her so quickly


    In fact, this wasn’t the first time they had kissed.


    The first time was a light peck to make the man she was arranged to meet feel awkward.


    The second time was in the private room of Twilight Bar, where she yed a game with some


    hooligans, lost, and had to find someone familiar of the opposite sex to kiss for a minute. Theo didn’t


    allow her to find someone else, so he kissed her himself.


    But this time, there was no idental reason, no external factors interfering, he just suddenly kissed


    her…


    He had said before that he would give her everything except his feelings.


    If he kissed her without any feelings involved, what did he take her for? Disgusting man!


    With these thoughts, Ellinor wiped her mouth with disdain, annoyed!


    On the other end of the phone, Chase said, “Actually, I think Theo is a good person. Though he’s a bit


    older, he’s handsome! And he’s intelligent, capable, and without the scandals that those scions of


    wealthy families often have. Why not actually be together with him…”


    Ellinor couldn’t listen any further, “Enough! Stop talking nonsense. He has someone he loves in his


    heart, and I have no interest in getting involved!”


    Chase was taken aback, and immediately became displeased, “Ah, he’s really no good!”


    Ellinor said, “Whether he’s a good person or not has nothing to do with you and me! There are only two


    months and seven days left, and it will pass quickly. By then, he’ll be a stranger to me! By the way, your


    call came at the right time. I have something for you to take care of!”


    When it came to business, Chase became serious, “Alright, what is it?”


    Ellinor exined her arrangements in detail….


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    Chase epted the assignment, “Yes, I’ll take care of it right away!”


    Just as she hung up the phone, Ellinor hadn’t had a chance to catch her breath when She


    Mendoza’s call came in.


    As soon as she answered, she heard She’s criticizing andmanding voice, “Ellinor, have you


    gone crazy? During work hours, why aren’t you answering the phonel”


    Ellinor rubbed her temples wearily and forced a smile, “Just a friend called and we chatted for a while.


    Is there something you need, She?”


    She’s voice filled with resentment as she spoke loudly, “Who allowed you to answer personal calls


    during work hours? Ellinor,e to me immediately!
