    Chapter 301


    The cop was sweating bullets, trying toe up with a legit reason to exin to Mr. nchet why


    Elinor was under arrest. From the previous confrontation, he’d figured out that Elinor was probably Mr.


    nchet’s wife.


    But Theo didn’t say a word. He just sidestepped the cop and ced his cup on the bedside cab.


    The straw in the cup was all chewed up, with teeth marks clearly visible.


    After setting down the cup. Theo stood by the bed, his gaze on Elinorplex and unreadable.


    In the face of his silent stare, Elinor’s nonchnt attitude shifted slightly.

    She frowned a bit, nced at him, then lowered her eyes, murmuring. “I didn’t do it.”


    His response was calm: “Mhm.”


    Elinor looked puzzled at him. What did he mean by that? Even with the evidence stacked against her,


    he didn’t doubt her. But he didn’t say anything more, leaving his thoughts a mystery.


    Elinor furrowed her brows, shifting her gaze from him to the cop. “Officer, can I see mywyer now?”


    The cop nodded, “Yes.”


    Elinor continued, “Then could you pass me my phone? I need to call mywyer.”


    Theo chimed in, “I have awyer. I can have them.”


    Elinor cut him off, saying, “No, I have my ownwyer. Don’t trouble yourself.”


    Theo’s brows knitted together, he coolly handed her the phone from the cab, then turned to leave.


    As soon as Theo left, Patricia’s gaze followed him, trying to wriggle out of her brother’s arms to follow


    him.


    Balfour didn’t feelfortable letting Patricia go alone. He shot Elinor a look, then left with Patricia.


    Once the cops had done their job and cuffed Elinor, they took off.


    In the empty ward, Bryan stormed up to Elinor, his eyes seemingly aze.


    Seeing Bryan’s hostile stance, Elinor arched an eyebrow and asked, “What are you going to do? Hit


    me?”


    Bryan snapped, “Elinor, I’m so disappointed in you!”


    Elinor chuckled, “Well, be disappointed then!”


    Bryan gritted his teeth. “You…”


    “Bryan, let’s not waste our time on her! The police will handle her!” Haillie walked over, shot Elinor a


    disgusted look, then pulled Bryan, his face a mask of disappointment and anger, away.


    With everyone gone from the room, Elinor picked up the phone and dialed Chase.


    “Chase, get the legal team toe to the hospital.”


    Chase, puzzled, asked, “Boss, why are you at the hospital? What happened?”


    “Nothing serious; just have thewyere alone. You don’t need to tag along.”


    “Alright, I got it!”
