    Chapter 1049


    Belinda snapped out of her thoughts, “Huh? Ellinor, what’s up?”


    Ellinor replied, “I’m fine, no problems here, no need to keep watching over me and wasting your time.


    You can go about your business. Just drop by when you’re free.”


    Belinda shook her head firmly, “No can do. I’ve already promised Theo that I would take good care of


    you here. I can’t go back on my word.”


    Ellinor shook her head, “I’ll exin to Theo. There’s no need to do everything he says. He only thinks


    his work is important; it’s affecting your work by having youe and look after me. You don’t have to


    follow his ns to a T.”


    Belinda didn’t seem troubled, “Ellinor, my work isn’t being affected; I’ve taken leave. Mr. Larios


    approved it and has already arranged for someone else to cover my work.”


    Upon hearing this, Ellinor nced at Chase. Chase had just said he had no idea Belinda was here, yet


    he approved her leave. How could he possibly not know the reason for her leave? He was talking out of


    his ass!


    Ellinor sighed.


    Belinda being here and watching Chase’s performance was undoubtedly a p in her face…


    “I’ve already arranged Belinda’s work since she wants to take care of you here. Don’t reject her


    kindness!” Chase had overheard their conversation and chimed in, grinning from ear to ear.


    If his girlfriend weren’t present, Ellinor would want to p Chase!


    Seeing no one acknowledging him, Chase turned to Belinda with a smile, “Belinda, you’re on leave


    now. I shouldn’t be adding to your troubles! But I’m in a bit of a pickle. Could you help me out if you’re


    free?”


    Belinda blushed at Chase speaking to her. She nodded, “Mr. Larios, whatever it is, just say it. I’ll help if


    I can.”


    Chase smiled, “I knew you were the best! Could you book a room for me in a nearby hotel? My


    girlfriend usually sleeps in, but she woke up early today to visit the boss at the hospital. She’s a bit tired


    now. I want to take her to rest for a while.”


    He was taking his girlfriend for a rest and wanted her to book the room.


    Anyone would feel ufortable with that. Belinda, though thirsty for love, was not without reason.


    She frowned, “Mr. Larios, if you want to take your girlfriend to a hotel to rest, why don’t you book it


    yourself online? It’s very convenient on the phone…”


    Veronica, standing nearby, also thought Chase’s request was out of line and chimed in, “Exactly!”


    Chaseughed somewhat helplessly, “Yes, I know it’s convenient to book online, but my phone is out of


    battery. I think it’s not quite right for a man to let his girlfriend pay to book a room. Plus, she’s shy. She’s


    embarrassed to book.”


    Belinda was at a loss for words.

    Veronica rolled her eyes in exasperation, “Then you two go ‘rest‘ in the car! You even need someone


    else to book a hotel for you. Your girlfriend doesn’t seem so shy! What good girl goes to a hotel with


    her boyfriend in the middle of the day? What a fake innocent!”


    At Veronica’s mocking, the girl in Chase’s arms buried her face into his chest, looking like she was


    about to cry.


    Chase held the girl and gently patted her back,forting her tenderly, “It’s okay, don’t listen to her


    nonsense! I’m just nning to take you to a hotel to rest. No one can talk nonsense, okay?”


    The girl nodded in his arms, looking wronged.
