    Chapter 513


    “Alright, I’ll hitch a ride with Mr. nchet.”


    She headed towards the fancy Mercedes. Collin had already beat her to it and opened the backseat


    door for her.


    Once inside, Ellinor was hit by a strong smell of smoke that lingered in the car.


    Theo was smoking, and even with the windows down, the smoke didn’t immediately clear.


    His recent smoking addiction seemed to have worsened and he was even continuously puffing away


    back at Pearl Moon.

    Considering the baby inside her, Ellinor felt ufortable in the smoke-filled car.


    But, after all, it was not her car, so she had no right toin. All she could do was roll down her


    window to let the smoke out and politely said, “Thanks for the lift, Mr. nchet. You can drop me off at


    the freeway exit, I can catch a cab home from there”


    Theo was lounging, cigarette in hand, ncing at her.


    His mature and deep face was inscrutable. After a while, he let out a cold chuckle.


    Ellinor felt ufortable under his gaze, not understanding the meaning behind his chuckle.


    What was heughing at? Was there something funny about what she just said?


    After a while, he finally asked her, “Where have you been?”


    “What?”


    Ellinor was a bit surprised, not immediately understanding his sudden question.


    Theo nced at her, authoritatively saying, “I asked you, where have you been for over a month?”


    Ellinor blinked embarrassingly. “Oh, nowhere in particr, just hanging around.”


    Theo squinted, took a puff, and slowly exhaled the smoke, his sarcastic tone revealing a suppressed


    emotion, “Hanging around? Your version of hanging around is quite careful, you left no trace. Did you


    not want me to find you?”


    Ellinor said casually, “I just like to protect my privacy. Is there something you wanted, Mr. nchet?”


    Theo looked at her nonchnt demeanor, quite displeased, wishing he could just strangle this cold-


    hearted woman.


    Theo frowned, “You said I wanted something?”


    Ellinor turned her face away from him, casually looking out the window, “I wouldn’t know, Mr. nchet,


    you’re such a mysterious man, I can’t figure you out!”


    Theo reached out a hand and gripped her chin, forcibly turning her face towards him.


    His fingers lightly grazed her cheek, as if carefully inspecting the quality of a product, finally coldly


    saying, “You’ve lost weight.”


    Ellinor paused for a bit, “You have quite the memory to notice that!”


    Not only could he see it, but he could also feel it. He remembered every inch of her.


    Back at Pearl Moon, when he held her, her tiny waist was even smaller than before and was all bones.


    He thought she would be doing great without him this month, but she had made herself so thin.


    Ellinor really didn’t like this vague contact; she moved back ufortably but still couldn’t avoid his


    hand, so she frowned and expressed her dissatisfaction, “Mr. nchet, please let go, don’t do this.


    There should be a proper distance between men and women!”


    Theo scoffed, “Proper distance? You seem to have forgotten the intimate things we’ve been through.”
