Chapter 160
Ellinor continued, “Mr. Blanchet, you’ve never truly believed in my loyally to you! You had Collin arrange
work for me so you could keep an eye on me and know my every move, right?”
Theo stared at her intensely, not responding immediately
*Mr. Blanchet, I’m only here for three months and am a fleeting presence in your life Please don’t try to
control me! If you don’t trust me, I can swear an oath to you!
Ellinor said, raising her hand resolutely, “I swear, in the next two months and seven days, I will not do
anything to betray you, and if I do, I am willing to accept punishment” After firmly making her pledge,
she lowered her hand and turned to walk towards the door to the staircase.

by Theo from behind. The door was now tightly shut!
“Did I say you could leave?”
The door was stuck, causing Ellinor to frown. She had already made her pledge, what was this man still
unsatisfied with?
A bit impatiently, she said, “Mr. Blanchet, don’t act like a jealous little boy!”
Little boy?
Theo seemed to have heard something preposterous. He then leaned over, chuckling softly in her ear,
“Jealous? Ms. Mendoza, do you think I would be jealous over you? To me, you’re just a kid‘
“But to me, you’re a man!”
Ellinor blurted out in frustration. After saying it, she felt it wasn’t quite right and wanted to take it back.
But what’s said is said, like water poured out, how could she take it back?
All she could do was leave!
She tried to forcefully pull open the door, but it was held tightly by Theo and couldn’t be opened.
He whispered in her ear with his deep voice, “What did you just say?”
“…I didn’t say anything!”
Ellinor just wanted to quickly leave the staircase, but she still couldn’t open the door and was turned
around to face Theo again!
At this moment, Ellinor was blushing from her slip of the tongue, unable to look at Theo.
Theo stared at her flushed face.

She had just mentioned that there were two months and seven days left.
She remembered so clearly!
Since when did his emotions become so easily affected by this little girl?
He didn’t want her to have too much contact with other men. Seeing others compliment her made him
uncomfortable and even anxious.
She thought he wanted to control her, but if he simply wanted to control a woman, he didn’t need to
confine her somewhere because wherever she was, he could know everything about her if he wished.
He arranged work for her because he knew she couldn’t be idle. He figured it was better for her to be
under his watchful eye than to be managed by others out there.
Ellinor had misunderstood him!
