The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 511

Chapter 511 

Ellinor said, “I’m here for work, not for fun. Even if you’re not dropping me home, you could at least leave me somewhere I can hail a taxi, right?” 

Balfour squinted, “Ms. Mendoza, you’re asking for a bit much hem” 

Ellinor stared him down, “Any boss with some decency wouldn’t treat their employees like this” 

Balfour chuckled lightly, “What’s wrong, Ms. Mendoza? Can’t handle a little adversity? 

You were the one who confidently told me you weren’t like my sister. She wilts like a flower in a greenhouse at the slightest breeze. But you can thrive in any 

situation 

Ms. Mendoza, if you’re so sure you can survive anything, let’s see how you handle tonight’s challenge. I believe in you, Ms. Mendoza. I’m sure you can find your way off this highway just fine.” 

Ellinor bit her lip and held back her anger as she listened to Balfour. 

She wouldn’t be playing secretary to this jerk if it weren’t for her mother’s case. But now that she was in it, she was in it till the end. 

With this in mind, Ellinor smiled, “Fine, Mr. Howard. I won’t disappoint you. Have a smooth ride, and I’ll see you at the office tomorrow.” 

With that, she opened the car door and hopped out without hesitation. 

You’re not supposed to stop on the highway, but Balfour had the driver pull over just to let her out. 

And the sudden detour to the highway was definitely a setup. 

To think this guy was her own brother 

Once Ellinor was out, the car took off without wasting a second. 

Quinton, sitting in the passenger seat, watched Ellinor disappear into the darkness and felt a pang of sadness. He turned to Balfour, “Mr. Howard, it’s not safe for Ms. Mendoza to be out on the highway this late…” 

Balfour glanced at him, “What? Are you smitten with her too?” 

Quinton blushed and quickly shook his head, “No, Mr. Howard. I just think that if anything happens to Ms. Mendoza, it would look bad for you and the company.” 

Balfour smirked, “Don’t worry, she’s not the type to let anything happen to her.” 

What type? What did Mr. Howard think of Ms. Mendoza? Quinton couldn’t make sense of his boss’s sudden change of attitude. 

On the way, Mr. Howard was all gentlemanly, worrying about Ms. Mendoza getting cold and asking him to give her a coat. 

But now he was leaving her on the highway?
