Chapter 227


    Chapter 227


    When Ellinor came out of the bathroom with her hair still wet, she noticed only Belinda was there and


    instinctively looked around for Thea


    Belinda leaned in and said, “Ellinor, Uncle just left. He’s probably off to give Haillie–that wicked woman


    a piece of his mind, all for your


    Ellinor froze and her brow furrowed


    Haillie was indeed nasty. She was sly and cunning pretending to be sweet while plotting Today, she


    even tried to kill Ellinor


    But, Theo, Haillie, and Jonah had been friends for many years. He wouldn’t ruin the friendship just for


    her, a pawn who would be gone in three months.


    Besides, Haillie was Patricia’s bestie, and Patricia was the girl Theo had a crush on. He wouldn’t do


    anything to Haillie.


    As Ellinor was thinking. Belinda, grinning from ear to ear, grabbed her and said, “Ellinor, let me dry your


    hair for you!”


    “No need. I let it dry naturally Ellinor casually rubbed her semi–wet hair with a towel.


    But Belinda shook her head and said seriously, ‘No way! The nights here are chilly If you go to bed with


    wet hair, you’ll catch a cold! Plus, Uncle told me to take good care of you if you catch a cold and he


    hears you sneezing when hees back, he’d me me for sure!”


    Belinda was overthinking, especially when it came to her and Theo’s rtionship!


    Ellinor had no choice but to let Belinda dry her hair. Belinda pushed her into a chair and started blow–


    drying her hair.


    The hairdryer Belinda brought didn’t make much noise and didn’t interfere with their conversation. It


    was pretty good


    “Ellinor, I saw that you guys brought back a bear from the valley. Are you going to roast it and eat it?”


    Eat it?


    With the right amount of heat and wind from the hairdryer, Ellinor, feeling sleepy,zily answered,


    “That’s an endangered animal, we can’t eat it. If I hadn’t stopped your uncle today, he would have killed


    it”


    Belinda was a bit surprised, “Ellinor, you are so kind. Only you can handle my uncle like that!”


    Ellinor was puzzled, “What do you mean?”


    “He didn’t kill the bear because you stopped him. You don’t know, but my uncle is a famous wildlife


    hunter. He hunts in the tropical jungles abroad every year to practice his shooting skills, and he never


    shows mercy to any wild animals. He only listens to you. If it was someone else, he wouldn’t do it!”


    Ellinor asked awkwardly. “…Really?”


    Belinda nodded vigorously. “Yes‘ Ellinor, you just married him a month ago, you probably don’t know


    him well yet. Once you get to know him, you’ll see how ruthless he is!” “How can you badmouth your


    uncle like that? He seems pretty nice to you!”


    “Of course, my uncle cares about me because we’re family! But he’s really ruthless, heartless, and


    brutal towards outsiders. He has a bad reputation, and his name alone scares the hell out of many


    people!”


    Ellinor had heard about Theo’s brutal reputation before.

    That’s why when she found out that the man she randomly kissed on the street was Theo, she was so


    scared!


    But she hadn’t really seen Theo’s brutal side yet. Was he really that terrifying?


    At that moment, someone knocked on the door of their suite.


    Who could it be?


    Belinda turned off the hairdryer and ran to open the door.
