The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 744

Chapter 744

"Spill it, why are you tailing me?” Ellinor asked bluntly, having already had her suspicions.

Belinda looked a bit sheepish, "I just wanted to see where you'd go and what you'd do.’

Ellinor casually folded her arms, "Why the curiosity about what I'm up to? Care to be a bit more specific?"

Belinda knew her stalking was out of line and felt pretty rotten about it.

But then she remembered she had a reason, so she puffed up her chest and asked, “Ellinor! I saw you coming out of the office of Crescent Society's president. What's your deal with them?"

Ellinor didn't even bat an eyelash as she simply replied, "They're old friends of mine from childhood. Is there a problem?"

Belinda was taken aback, her face a picture of surprise, “What? Ellinor, you're childhood friends with the president of Crescent Society? But didn't you grow up in the boondocks?"

Ellinor looked at her, “So country bumpkins can't make it big? Is it so weird that a childhood friend of mine made it from rags to riches as a corporate bigwig?"

Belinda quickly waved her hands, "No, no! That's not what I meant; I thought you and the president of Crescent Society..”

Ellinor finished for her, "Thought I was in a romantic relationship with the president of Crescent Society?"

Belinda felt even guiltier, “It's what Collin told me; he said you and Chase from Crescent Society tied the knot, so I just.’

Ellinor fell silent.

There had been a misunderstanding between her and Theo before, which made Theo think she had married Chase.

So, it was conceivable that Theo's right-hand man, Collin, would think the same.

So Belinda worked at Crescent Society; that's why she saw her coming out of the president's office.

Ellinor looked at the naive girl helplessly, "Then how did you get close to Chase?"

Belinda shook her head, "Ah! I haven't even gotten close yet.

I can't seem to find the chance.

Ellinor, your partner...I mean, your friend. Your friend is hardly at the company and is always busy working. On the rare occasions when I get to serve him a cup of coffee, he doesn't even glance my way!

I'm beginning to doubt myself! ls my appearance really that unattractive? Have I completely lost my appeal to men?"

Ellinor breathed a sigh of relief; at least Chase hadn't messed around with this girl.
