Ellinor picked up a glass of orange juice with a light and nonchalant expression on her face. âIâm not bothered. But you, itâs your big day today. Donât let unimportant people ruin your mood.â
Belinda gently patted her face. âRight! I need to stay in a good mood and look my best. I canât let a wicked woman get to me.â
Chase brought over a pair of flats and noticed Belindaâs furrowed brows. âWhatâs wrong? Your feet hurt?â
Belinda huffed. âI blame you! How could you arrange security so poorly that an unwanted guest got in?!â
Chase hadnât seen Sophia come in. He crouched down to help her change shoes. âWhat happened?
Who came in?â
âAsk Ellinor! Didnât a wicked woman just come to bring me bad luck?â Belinda pointed her chin towards Ellinor, only to find that the seat where Ellinor had just been sitting was now empty.
âHuh? Whereâs Ellinor? She was just here.â She looked over at the kids, but Ellinor wasnât there either.
Chase helped her into her flats and stood up, taking her hand to help her up. âAlright! Boss will be back. Donât furrow your brows. Letâs go greet your relatives on my behalf, okay?â
Belindaâs cheeks were a rosy red as she got up. After looking at her handsome husband, her sour mood instantly lifted.
It still felt like a dream. This man had truly formed a new family with her; he was truly hers.
Ellinor walked alone to the back garden of the wedding venue, where there was a small pond. It was very serene.
The wedding guests all preferred the hustle and bustle, so they wouldnât come here.
She took out her phone and sent a message to that man. [Where are you?]
One minute, two minutes, then twenty minutes passed, but no reply came.
Sophia had said earlier that the man had already flown back to M State. Was it true?
Why didnât he say anything before he left? He had clearly recovered his memory.
Having experienced a major loss once, Ellinor now lacked a sense of security. She didnât understand why he couldnât simply send her a message. Why didnât he let her know?
Was it that difficult?
âBoss, what are you thinking about here all alone?â
Idaâs voice came from behind her.
Ellinor came back to her senses and turned to look at Ida, who had come up to her, lightly pursing her lips. âNothing; itâs just a little too noisy over there. I wanted some quiet.â
Ida looked at Ellinor with concern. âAre you worried about Mr. Blanchet?â
Ellinorâs brows were slightly furrowed. âNo. He should be just fine now. He doesnât need me to worry about him.â
Ida let out a light sigh. âOur people found out that Sophia had Mr. Blanchet and Tristan sent to the airport to catch the earliest flight back to M State this morning.â
Upon hearing Idaâs report, Ellinorâs heart seemed to be tightly gripped by something. So, it was true. He really left without saying a word.
âBoss, what should we do now?â Ida asked for instructions.
Ellinor squinted her eyes. âWe proceed as planned. As for that man, if he runs away this time, I can still catch him.â
âYes!â Ida nodded. âAlso, Boss, thereâs one more thing.â
Ellinor raised an eyebrow. âWhat?â
âI found out that Lady Lotus might be in the country.â
What? Ellinorâs dark face suddenly showed shock. âWhat did you say?â
Ida truthfully told her about what she saw at the hospital the day before yesterday. As well as the results of the investigation by her men.
Ellinorâs pupils violently trembled. She suddenly thought back to how Bertha and her daughter, who had come to see her the day before yesterday, said they wanted to introduce her to an old acquainta
