Chapter 945


    Chapter 945


    She didn’t mean to butter up Marissa nchet; she was merelyplimenting her hard work, and she


    genuinely thought the seafood soup tasted great.


    Putnam had made it clear he didn’t like her, so no matter what she did, it was never good enough for


    the old man.


    She could be polite to the elders, but if he really couldn’t stand her, she wouldn’t force it.


    Marissa felt super awkward, shot Putnam an annoyed look in secret and sighed helplessly. Then she


    said to Ellinor, “Ellinor, ignore him. If you like it, have more. There’s plenty more in the kitchen!”


    Ellinor didn’t give a damn about Putnam’s attitude and smiled sweetly.


    “Sure!” she replied cheerfully.


    As she was having her soup, her phone buzzed twice. Ellinor took it out while eating.


    It was a message from Chase.


    Chase: Just as you predicted, Tracy Mendoza and She Mendoza left early this morning to meet


    Patricia Howard in a park. Patricia gave them a suitcase, probably filled with cash.]


    Along with the message, he sent a photo.


    Looking at the message from Chase, Ellinor wasn’t surprised at all. She calmly continued to have her


    soup while opening the photo in the


    message.


    The photo was taken from a hidden angle. Behind some greenery, Patricia was handing a ck


    suitcase to She.


    At that moment, the man next to her stood up.


    After a few bites, Theo got up, took his coat, gave a quick greeting to Marissa and Putnam, then turned


    to leave.


    Seeing him about to leave, Ellinor took a sip of water, stood up, and said, “Putnam, Marissa, I have


    some business to attend to with Mr. nchet. Take your time with breakfast.”

    Then she turned to Moran and Veronica and said, “You two eat more, then study hard.”


    After saying this, she followed the man’s steps and left the house.


    Once outside, Theo gave the girl a cold sidelong nce and said in a low voice, “What are you doing


    following me?”


    Ellinor raised an eyebrow, “Can’t I follow you?”


    He snorted, “Your ssmate even came to your house, why are you following me? Shouldn’t you stay


    at home and keep himpany?”


    Ellinor knew it was about that. She shrugged, “Theo, haven’t we talked about this already? Moran is


    your sister’s crush. I brought him to tutor Veronica’s sses to create opportunities for her! Otherwise,


    if she ends up bringing you a good–for–nothing brother–inw, you’ll be even more upset!”


    Theo nced at her, still sulky, “If my brother–inw has designs on my wife, wouldn’t that be even


    more annoying?”


    Ellinor gave a slight smile, “Teenage boys always have some unrealistic desires. In fact, I don’t know


    him well! Just like you and me, we weren’t each other’s ideal type before, but we still ended up


    together, didn’t we?”


    “Huh, yeah, this old man fell into the hands of a little girl like you!” Theo’s face finally softened a bit. He


    looked like he couldn’t stay mad at her. “Why didn’t you wear a coat when you came out?” he asked,


    removing his coat and cing it on her shoulders.


    Ellinor gave a pout, “You left so fast. You didn’t even wait for me.”
