    Chapter 1134


    Chase caught on to Ellinor’s hint from her eyes. He grinned and said, “Ms. Mendoza, we don’t just


    come to you when we need something. right?”


    Ida chimed in. “It’s been a while since we’ve seen you. We just came to have a chat.”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Both of them avoided calling her boss in unison.


    Ellinor responded, “I’m kinda bored anyway. Your visit is right on time. We can y some poker to kill


    time.”


    Chase grinned. “Sounds good!”


    Belinda chimed in. “Cool Mr. Larios gave me a half day off. I can join you guys for some poker.”


    At this moment, Marissa nchet emerged from the kitchen with two maids.


    “Ellinor, I heard you have friends over, so I made some snacks. Please invite your friends to try them.”


    Ellinor, who usually respected Marissa, surprisingly ignored her goodwill this time.


    Belinda stood up and said, “Marissa, thank you!”


    Marissa looked at Belinda with a gentle smile, “Belinda, it’s been a while since you’ve been here. I


    almost couldn’t recognize you! You’ve be more and more beautiful!”


    Belinda blushed at Marissa’spliment and responded awkwardly.


    Chase and Ida also stood up and greeted Marissa.


    Marissa, though polite to Chase and Ida, whom she had never met before, had a hint of caution in her


    eyes.


    “You must be Ellinor’s friends, right? Please don’t mind. Theo cares a lot about Ellinor. He is afraid that


    she might get hurt, so he checks all visitors for security. It’s not personal.”


    Chase grinned and said, “No worries, we understand.”


    Ida remained silent.


    After the maids put down the snacks, Marissa sat down next to Ellinor and Baber.


    When Marissa sat down, the other three also took their seats.


    *Come on, please try the snacks I made and give me some feedback.”


    Marissa invited them again and picked up a cookie that Ellinor liked and handed it to her. “Ellinor, this is


    your favorite red bean-vored cookie. I baked extra for you.”


    Ellinor declined politely but coldly, “Thank you, but I don’t want anything sweet right now.”


    Marissa paused but didn’t get angry. She handed the cookie to Baber, who was next to Ellinor, “Here,


    kiddo, try this cookie and tell me if it’s good.”


    Baber happily took the cookie and started eating.


    Ellinor nced at Baber but said nothing.


    With Marissa around, the youngsters couldn’t really chat and fell silent.


    Actually, in the past, Marissa usually wouldn’t get involved in the youngsters’ affairs. After delivering the


    snacks, she’d go back to her room and let them chat freely.
