At out if you’ve got somethin If not, if the to hit the sack.”

In this answer. Then I’m hanging che was devoid of emotion, but there was a bace of a yelled threat. You can go to bed, but don’t hang up the video call Einer looked puzzled Tm going to be how can I not hang up? You want to watch me sleep or something?”

his Yorehead with one hand, teemingly unfazed by this Despite the man’s poker face. Ellinor was pretty pissed off at his attitude.

Theo responded. 7 don’t have any other women.”

Ellinor retorted. How can there be no other women? You could call your wife, Sophia. Given your relationship, it wouldn’t be too much to ask her for a striptease. Upon hearing Sophia’s name, Theo’s impassive face furrowed. “You don’t want that painting anymore?”

Ellinor fell silent.

This jerk! Did he have any other topics?

Theo continued. “Point your phone camera at the bed; go to sleep if you want.”

Elinor stared at her phone screen for a minute, barely managing to keep her temper in check. She placed the phone on the bedside table with the camera facing the bed.

Collin, seated in the passenger seat, turned around holding a blinking phone, asking, “Mr. Blanchet, it’s Ms. Sophia. She probably couldn’t reach you, so she called me.”

Fearing he might wake Ellinor on the other end of the video call, Theo consciously lowered his voice.

“Tell her I’m resting.”

“Got it!” Collin nodded in acceptance of the order, then leaned against the car window to answer the call, whispering, “Hello? Ms. Sophia!”
