Chapter 128
“Me? Knowing someone as distinguished as Mr. Blanchet? In my dreams!”
Ellinor retorted quickly while trying her best to withdraw her hand.
But she was too vigorous, and the cup got knocked off track, spilling half its tea. The man’s hand was scalded red in an instant.
“Good Lord‘ Ellinor, what’s wrong with you?!
Sheila yelped, pushing Ellinor aside and rushing over to fawn over Theo’s burn.
“Mr. Blanchel, are you in pain? I’m so sorry, my country bumpkin assistant is so clumsy. I’m gonna give her a piece of my mind later!”
Theo coldly withdrew his hand without letting Sheila touch him, shaking off the remaining tea and accepting a napkin from a waiter, slowly wiping his hand.
His gloomy gaze remained fixated on Ellinor. He didn’t even frown at the burn, but after a moment of silence, he ominously said, “A harsh lesson is in order
Sheila reached out and grasped at thin air, her movement stiffening To cover her embarrassment, she turned her head and scolded.
“Ellinor, what are you standing there for? Apologize to Mr. Blanchet now!”
Ellinor simply bowed and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Blanchet. I didn’t mean to!”
Theo ignored her, his stone–cold face showing no emotion, sending chills down one’s spine.

The other three gentlemen remained composed, sipping their tea and silently observing, each with their own thoughts.
The atmosphere was stifling Pollock was also at a loss. Mr. Blanchet was a man who should never be offended. This situation was bad! He frowned and signaled to his goddaughter, Sheila.
Sheila immediately understood her godfather’s intentions. After pondering for a moment, she dismissively waved at Ellinor, “Alright, Mr. Blanchet surely won’t hold a grudge against a clumsy woman like you! You’re such a klutz, don’t just stand here, find a corner and stay out of sight, lest Mr. Blanchet gets annoyed by your presence!”
Of course, she wasn’t trying to protect Ellinor. In fact, she was hoping Ellinor would piss off Mr. Blanchet and get a good scolding But since Ellinor was her assistant, her actions would reflect on Sheila as the employer. If Mr. Blanchet decided to make a fuss, Sheila would also get dragged down. So, it was better to keep the peace.
