The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 517

Chapter 517 

She didn’t want him to know where she lived. So she politely said, “Don’t sweat it, Mr. Blanchet. I’d be really grateful if you could drop me off at the highway exit. I can hitch a ride back home from there” 

She kept her address under wraps, and he didn’t pry, simply telling the driver, “Take me home.” 

The driver responded, “Yes, Mr. Blanchet” 

Home? The Blanchet’s place? 

What was that supposed to mean? She hadn’t misheard, right? She had no intention of heading back to the Blanchet’s home with him! 

Feeling comered, Ellinor reluctantly gave up the name of her residential community, “Harmony Residence.” 

With an impassive face, Theo gave a nod that indicated that he got it. 

Collin picked up on his cue and directed the driver to Harmony Residence. 

Having heard the conversation between Mr. Blanchet and Ms. Mendoza, he felt a pang of pity for Mr. Blanchet. 

Poor Mr. Blanchet had spent a month searching for Ms. Mendoza, only to find she already had a new husband. How was he supposed to take that? 

Soon enough, they pulled up at the entrance of Harmony Residence 

“Thanks for the lift, Mr. Blanchet. Take care” Ellinor said. Then she quickly got out of the car and hustled into the building. 

Collin was somewhat taken aback. He wanted to ask Mr. Blanchet where to next, but he noticed Mr. Blanchet had also gotten out of the car and was following Ms. 

Mendoza. 

Perhaps he didn’t believe that Ms. Mendoza already had a partner and wanted to verify it himself. 

Once inside the building, Ellinor hit the elevator button. As the doors were about to close, a big hand suddenly reached in and the elevator doors reopened 

Then Theo, without any expression on his face, stepped in. 

Ellinor halted and frowned in disapproval, “Mr. Blanchet, why are you tailing me?” 

Theo replied calmly, “I’m thirsty, so I thought I’d get a glass of water at your place. I hope you don’t mind.” 

Ellinor was speechless. 

Mind? She minded a hell of a lot! 

What on earth was this guy up to? 

The elevator started moving. Ellinor made a last-ditch attempt to push back, “Mr. Blanchet, it’s pretty late and I am a woman after all. It might lead to misunderstandings if people saw you heading up with me.” 

Theo turned his head to look at her with a sharp gaze, “You have your partner at home, don’t you? What are you scared I’ll do?” 

Ellinor had no response. 

With no other option, Ellinor reluctantly led Theo into her home. 

She knew that no matter what excuse she came up with or how much she resisted, Theo wouldn’t back down. That’s just how he was.
