Chapter 1133
Well, no wonder she recognized the things in the hands of those guys following Devin. They looked
like airport security equipment.
âDevin, is this really necessary? They are Ellinor's friends; they are not bad people!â
Devin insisted, âMs. Wesley, it's Mr. Blanchet's order before he left. Anyone who comes to see Mrs.
Blanchet needs to go through security checks. We're just following orders.â
Feeling helpless, Belinda replied. âOkay then, let me talk to my two friends and see if they can
accept this.â
Devin showed respect, âAlright.â
Belinda felt it was a bit too much to do security checks at the front door. She wondered if Mr. Larios
and Ms. Gipson would accept this kind
of treatment.
As she walked over to explain, Chase spoke first, âIt's fine; we can go through the security checks.â
Somewhat surprised, Belinda asked, âMr. Larios, don't you and Ms. Gipson feel offended?â
Chase smiled, âMr. Blanchet is doing this for Ellinor's safety; why shouldn't we accept it?â
Feeling awkward, Belinda said, âAs long as you guys donât mind. It wasn't like this before. It's
probably because Ellinor is pregnant and Theo is overly worried.â
âIt's fine; tell them they can check us.â
âAlright, I'll let them know.â
After Belinda informed Devin, he instructed his men to conduct thorough security checks on Chase
and Ida and refused their gifts.
âI'm sorry, but Mr. Blanchet is concerned about Mrs. Blanchet's health and doesn't allow her to eat
food bought outside. Your kindness is appreciated, but the gifts can't be brought in.â
Chase smiled, âOkay, we understand. Mr. Blanchet really cares about his wife.â
Devin didn't seem to catch the sarcasm in Chase's words. After the security checks, they all entered
the courtyard.
The Blanchet villa's living room was spacious and bright, with a few waiting servants and no one
else.
After inviting them to sit, Devin politely said, âPlease wait here; Mrs. Blanchet will come shortly.â
Then he went upstairs to get Mrs. Blanchet.
Obviously, he hadn't asked for Ellinor's permission before they arrived.
About five minutes later, Ellinor slowly came down the stairs.
She was wearing a housecoat, and her hair was casually tied in a ponytail, looking a bit tired.
Accompanying her was a child.
After seeing Chase and Ida, Ellinor's expression remained calm, not making eye contact with them.
Belinda stood up, excitedly walked over, and complained, âEllinor, your house is like Fort Knox now!
We have to go through security checks just to get in, and our gifts aren't even allowed in. It's stricter
than airport security!â
Ellinor responded with a faint smile, âArent these all your kind-hearted uncle's requests?â
Belinda gave a bitter smile, âTheo is indeed being a bit over the top. But heâs doing this for your and
the babyâs safety. He's abroad and can't be with you, so of course he's worried.â
Ellinor gave a sarcastic smile but said nothing.
Then she sat down on the sofa with Baber, casually looked at Chase and Ida, and asked, âWhat
brings you two here?â
Upon seeing Ellinor safe and sound, Chase and Ida felt relieved, but they could clearly feel the tense
atmosphere in the Blanchet Villa.
