Chapter 106
Ellinor seemed to be feeling worn out and said slowly
“I hope you can try to trust me in the future, don’t always be on quard, thinking I’d stray to other men. I need some personal space! I’ve told you that since I’ve agreed to work with you for the next three months, I won’t do anything to harm you before the contract ends. You can rest assured
Theo asked, “Do you think I came to see you today because I don’t trust you?”
Ellinor looked up and glanced at the man. “What else? If you trusted me, you wouldn’t have stuck around with us all day and kept an eye on me in our booth, it was super awkward for my classmates!”
Theo said lightly, “Ms Mendoza, we may be business partners, but during the next three months, I will inevitably share some responsibility for your safety I don’t doubt your character, it’s the guys hanging around you that I don’t trust Can’t you see they’re after something?”
Ellinor shrugged off his concerns, Tm not a fool, of course I can see what they’re up to. But I know how to handle it.”
Theo snorted. “You know how to handle it, then why did you take the drink they offered so readily?”
“It was just a cocktail!”
Ellinor genuinely thought Theo was overthinking!
“Just a drink?” Theo’s eyebrows knitted together in disapproval “How do you know there’s nothing slipped into that drink? You’re an adult, shouldn’t you know better than to accept drinks from strangers in a messy place like this? Do I need to remind you?”
Ellinor was stunned and caught off guard by his lecture.
Did he see himself as her guardian now after attending her graduation ceremony as one today?
Since her mother passed away, she hasn’t had anyone to take care of her.
Her father barely paid attention to her and only cared if she’d embarrass the Mendoza family’s reputation.
It had been a long time since anyone had spoken to her in such a caring tone.
Ellinor snapped back, “So, if you offered me a drink, I shouldn’t take it either?”
Theo paused for two seconds, then squinted, “Am I the same as the others?”
Ellinor chuckled. You’re definitely not like the others! You obviously have no shortage of women, you don’t need to resort to dirty tricks to get them, the key point is that.. you’re not interested in me, so you wouldn’t stoop to such tactics, right?”
Theo replied casually, “Ms. Mendoza seems to understand quite well.”
Ellinor snorted, “You’re a strange one! One moment you’re mocking me and saying no one would dare marry me, the next you’re worried someone might spike my drink.”
Theo instantly responded, “There are plenty of men in the world, someone might end up liking you.”
Ellinor replied, “Well, thanks for your concern!”
Her voice gradually softened
Then, Theo felt a weight on his shoulder, a small head had fallen asleep there..
