Bartlett didn’t answer her, but he also didn’t try to shake off her hand.
Soon after, a light suddenly appeared in the darkness. The butler of the mansion hurried over with a flashlight, calming everyone down, “Guests, please don’t panic. The power outage is due to a circuit short–circuit! We have sent someone to fix it; it should be
back on soon.”
“Please fix it ASAP, my girlfriend is scared of the dark!”
“Man, you gave us
real fright!”
“Don’t worry everyone, it’s just a power cut!”
About a minute later, the chandeliers in the banquet hall lit up again.
Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief. Everything was back to normal.
However, Jonah was already standing in the middle of the dance floor, having straightened his clothes and tie. He smiled at his friends, “Sorry guys, I finished my dance during the blackout. If you missed it, well, better luck next time!”
Ellinor was suspicious. Could the blackout have been Jonah’s doing?
If not, Jonah was quite lucky. A power outage right at the crucial moment.
She didn’t want to watch Jonah strip, but he had obviously raised the stakes in the poker game just now on purpose. It was of a letdown to not see him get his just desserts.

Her words suddenly stopped because when she looked up, she didn’t see Bartlett as she had expected. Instead, she was met with Theo’s cold and expressionless face.
Theo?
How could it be him?
He clearly wasn’t standing there before the power cut.
Ellinor never expected that the person she grabbed in the dark was Theo.
Instinctively, she stepped back, wanting to get away from him.
However, because Bartlett had ordered a juice for Ellinor, the waiter bringing it was approaching from behind her.
Startled by Ellinor’s sudden move, the waiter almost dropped the tray, and the juice almost spilled on her.
“Watch out!”
At that moment, Theo reached out and pulled her back, preventing her from colliding with the waiter.
Although the waiter was visibly shaken, he still managed to steady the tray.
Ellinor had wanted to get away from Theo, but instead, he pulled her towards him. He tightly embraced her and the atmosphere instantly became tense..
