    Chapter 682


    He didn’t really want to pick up the call.


    But if he didn’t, it would seem like he was hiding something from her. He had just managed to get her


    back, so he didn’t want any misunderstandings to upset her because she could disappear the next day


    So he picked up the call and put it on speaker.


    On the other end of the line was Patricia’s voice, filled with sobs and panic, “Theo, where are you?”


    “I’m at home.”


    “Theo, can youe over right now? I need you…


    “I can’t”


    Patricia didn’t give up after hearing his t refusal and cried out


    “Theo, I know it’s bad to always bother you, but Baber is missing! I’ve searched everywhere I can, but I


    can’t find him. I really don’t know what to do! Theo, could something have happened to Baber?”


    Hearing this, Theo furrowed his brows. Baber was missing?


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Ellinor, who was sitting beside him, had finished half a bowl of food, put down her spoon, and said,


    “You should go and check. After all, he is a child you and Ms. Howard adopted together, you have


    some responsibility”


    Theo didn’t respond to Patricia on the other end of the line; he hung up and looked at Ellinor, “You have


    to trust me, that kid…”


    Before he could finish, Ellinor put a finger to his lips to stop him from continuing.


    Ellinor calmly looked at him, “You don’t need to exin. I understand everything. I won’t be mad.”


    Theo was slightly taken aback and moved by her understanding.


    Ellinor continued, “But first, you need to carry me upstairs to change my clothes. I want to go with you


    to see what happened.”


    Theo gently picked her up, “Okay,e with me.”


    He med himself for not telling her about the adoption because he was scared that she’d get mad.


    If he had been honest with her from the start, she would’ve understood and wouldn’t have stormed off.


    She wasn’t narrow-minded. She was always open-minded when it came to major decisions; it was he


    who had underestimated her.


    Ellinorzily held onto Theo’s neck, “This is ourst chance. From now on, don’t keep anything from


    me, or else I will never forgive you!”


    He smoothed her hair, “Okay, I promise I won’t keep anything from you ever again.”


    “That’s more like it!”


    After they changed, they left together, heading for the Howard family’s home.


    But not long after they left, a ck car drove out from a nearby street, quietly tailing them.
