Chapter 1849: Chapter 1849

At the hospital.

While Ellinor was chatting with her mother, Theo was seated quietly by their side, peeling apples for the two women.

Ellinor warned him not to strain his arm, but he just brushed it off, claiming he was fine..

Since his arm was injured, he didn’t return to the office in the afternoon. He left the work to his subordinates.

Before they knew it, evening had arrived. Just as Ellinor was pondering what takeout to order for dinner with her mother, there was a knock on the door of the hospital room. Theo got up to answer the door, and upon opening it, he came face-to-face with Thaddeus, and his expression instantly cooled.

Thaddeus didn’t look too pleased either. His gaze scanned Theo from top to bottom, and he finally rested on his legs.

He snorted. “So, your leg is healed. You sure played that up!”

Theo squinted his eyes. “Why bother being genuine with you guys?”

Just as Thaddeus was about to retort, Bertha quickly tugged on her husband’s arm and said, “Mr.

Blanchet, we came to apologize to you and Ellinor.”

Theo scoffed. He didn’t believe that Thaddeus had such intentions.

In the end, he just nodded at Bertha and returned to Ellinor’s side.

Bertha dragged her husband into the hospital room and closed the door.

Upon seeing Thaddeus, Ellinor’s eyes instantly flashed with caution.

Bertha’s smile was warm but awkward. “Ellinor, we brought dinner for you. Why don’t you and your mom eat first?”

Lea rushed up to Ellinor with a food box. “Ellinor, here! It’s really yummy!”

Ellinor took the box and placed it on a nearby cabinet, then spoke while letting out a chilly laugh.

“Bertha, your timing is impeccable. I was just wondering what to order for dinner, and here you are with a meal.”

Bertha forced a laugh. “Then don’t order anything. Eat while it’s still hot. I wasn’t sure what you guys would like, so I ordered a few dishes based on your mom’s preferences.” Ellinor gave her a faint smile.

“We can eat later. Bertha, you brought this man here, so he must have something to say to us, right?”

Since Ellinor asked, Bertha nodded honestly. “Ellinor, he came to apologize to you and Mr. Blanchet.

We’re sorry for separating your family and causing you pain these past three years. It’s our fault.

Thaddeus, you should apologize to the children!”

Thaddeus kept his face stern. He seemed reluctant to speak.

Lea tugged on her father’s hand. “Dad, come on! You need to set a good example for your daughter!”

Thaddeus cast a glance at his younger daughter, then finally forced himself to speak. “I apologize for the trouble I’ve caused you both over the past three years. It was my fault, and I’m sorry.”

He spoke very fast, and his apology lacked sincere remorse.

Ellinor tilted her head and exchanged a look with Theo. They understood each other.

Then, Ellinor looked at Thaddeus, whose face showed no remorse, and finally rested her gaze on Bertha. “So, Bertha, you want us to forgive him just like that?”
