What a coincidence!
Damn, was God playing some kind of joke on him?
So, Ellinor was actually Pearl, the sister he had been searching so long for Pearl was Ellinor!
Balfourâs eyes were red and swollen. Regretfully, he said, âSo, as her brother, I misunderstood my own sister again and again. I bullied and scared her along with others, splashed coffee on her head, and almost caused her to get an abortionâ
Quintonâs face was stiff. He was a bit at a loss, âUh.. Mr. Howard, you didnât know that Ellinor was Pearl either.â
They finally met again, and he treated Pearl so badly. Would Pearl still be willing to recognize him as her brother?
Balfour touched his forehead and took a deep breath, weakly asking, âWhere is Ellinor now?â
Quinton said, âShe went back to the Blanchet familyâs mansion with Mr. Blanchet, she should be asleep now.â
Balfour nodded somewhat dazedly, âTomorrow, find a way to let me see her alone.â
âOkay!â Quinton agreed.
Balfour looked up and instructed worriedly, âDonât force her, even if she doesnât want to see me, you have to talk to her nicely.â
Quinton nodded, âDonât worry, I understand.â
Balfour rubbed his eyebrows and responded, then waved his hand tiredly to dismiss him Quinton then left there Morning When Ellinor woke up, she saw Theoâs deep eyes.
She always slept alone since she was a child, so suddenly waking up to find a man next to her caused her first reaction to be jumping back in fear.
Theo looked at her scared reaction and frowned, âWhat? Not used to it?â
Ellinor then realized she had moved back to the Blanchet familyâs mansion yesterday and that her relationship with Theo had changed.
Even though everything that should have happened had already happened, she blushed a little and coughed, âYou, what time is it? Donât you have to go to work today?â
Theo squinted at her, âHow can I go to work with someone lying on top of me?â
Ellinor frowned in confusion, then turned her head to see that she was not resting her head on a pillow but on Theoâs strong arm. 1 She laughed awkwardly and pouted, âYou can pull your arm out when Iâm asleep! My head isnât made of stone; am I so heavy that you canât move?*
This womanâs words were so sharp first thing in the morning.
Theo pretended to be angry, pinched her face, and sneered, âYou were really tired last night, so I wanted you to sleep more and was afraid that moving would wake you up. How can you be so ungrateful?â
He said the phrase âso tiredâ in such an ambiguous tone that she couldnât help but overthink Ellinor blushed as she thought of their intimacy last night and sat up, Iâm awake now! Thanks for your arm; you can take it back!â
Theo sat up with her, stretching his arm that had become numb from Ellinorâs weight, âSo you donât remember me as soon as you wake up? Werenât you all over me last night?â
Ellinorâs face turned red instantly. She was extremely embarrassed, âTheo!!!â
