Chapter 1833
Did he have no shame?
He truly left Ellinor speechless.
Veronica and Moran were taken aback for a moment and then nodded to each other in silent
agreement.
Then they watched as Theo, in an assertive manner, carried Ellinor upstairs.
Ellinor was, of course, reluctant, but she gave up struggling. From what she knew about this man,
the more she struggled, the more embarrassing it would probably get.
She couldn't predict what this man might do next, so she decided to let it go..
After watching her brother and Ellinor disappear upstairs, Veronica broke down in tears again. Her
brother was truly back.
Thank goodness!
At that moment, a tissue was handed to her. âCome on, wipe your tears. Your makeupâs all
smudged.â
After coming back to her senses, Veronica looked at Moran. She pouted and looked wronged. âAh..
My brother is disgusted with me. You're not going to be disgusted with me too, are you?â
Moran couldn't help but laugh at her antics.
Afraid she would overthink, he moved closer and wiped her tears for her. âSilly! How could I ever be
disgusted with you?â
Veronica blushed and took the tissue to wipe her own tears. âThen stop staring at me. My makeup is
smudged, and I look hideous.â
Moran chuckled. âNo, you look adorable. Like a little kitten.â
Veronica's face turned even redder. âStop teasing me! Ahem, by the way, what were you and my
brother talking about earlier? Did he say how he came back?"
Moran shook his head. âHe didnât explain much. I just expressed my feelings for you to your
brother.â
Veronica blinked. âYou... What did you say?â
Moran took her face in his hands. âI told him I'm serious about you and that I want a future with
you.â
Veronica's eyes flickered. âWhat did my brother say?â
Moran looked a bit vexed. âWell... he didn't seem too pleased with me. He didn't say much.â
Veronica wrapped her arms around Moran's neck and rested her head on his shoulder. âIt doesn't
matter! My brother doesn't get the final say; Ellinor does.â
Moran smiled. âEllinor said the same thing earlier, so I'm not worried anymore. I was afraid your
family wouldn't approve.â
Veronica tightened her grip around Moran's neck. âEven if they don't agree, I'm still going to marry
you! But with Ellinor around, they can't really object, especially my brother. He's a total softie
around her.â
Softie?
Moran looked surprised. âI didn't quite get that impression earlier.â
âYou'll understand once you get to know him better. He might seem tough on the outside, but in
front of Ellinor, heâs like putty. She can make him do anything.â Moran laughed. âWell, that's good
then.â
Upstairs, Theo carried Ellinor straight into a guest room.
Their bedroom was currently occupied by four children playing around, so it wasn't really
appropriate for certain activities
As soon as she was laid down on the bed, Ellinor felt a wave of warmth enveloping her. She was
under the manâs shadow, and their eyes were locked onto each other. âWhat are you planning to do
to me in broad daylight?â
Theo wasn't in a rush, and he just pecked her on the cheek. âWhat do you think? Donât you know
what I want to do?â
Ellinor frowned. âStop it! We have dinner soon. Grandma and Grandpa are waiting for us. It's not
right.â
Theo couldn't help but laugh at her. âSo, little miss, you're quite confident about my endurance,
aren't you? You think I can't finish before dinner time, huh?â
