Chapter 320
Theo frowned, “Irresponsible? Tell me, how am I being irresponsible?”
Just as Ellinor was about to point out his issues, her phone in her pocket suddenly started ringing.
Her train of thought was interrupted. She took out her phone, and the screen displayed a number she
hadn’t saved.
–
She had an incredibly good memory, especially for numbers – she could memorize them in a glance.
She immediately recognized it as Patricia’s number
“You pick it up yourself, it’s your Ms. Howard,”
She handed the phone right to Theo, and Ellinor turned to look at the street view outside the car
window, politely excusing herself.
Theo didn’t even glance at the phone, he directly hit decline and said seriously, “Ellinor, turn around,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlook at me.”
Ellinor turned her face to look at him, her eyes carrying a touch of sarcasm, “And then?”
Theo gazed into her eyes, “That day, when I asked you to go to Pearl Moon, I actually was…”
Just then, the phone rang again, the ringtone sounding over and over,
A flash of annoyance crossed Theo’s eyes.
“Answer it! What if she has an emergency?”
Theo thought for a while and answered on speakerphone.
Patricia’s soft voice immediately came through from the other side of the phone.
“Theo, are you home yet?”
“Not yet, what’s up?”
Patricia said helplessly on the other side of the phone, “Theo, Balfour’s car broke down half way and
we can’t move. Can you come pick us up?”
“What about Balfour’s crew? Can’t he find someone else to pick you guys up?”
“Balfour’s phone is out of battery, and he didn’t write down his crew’s phone numbers… I only have
your number saved in my phone and can’t contact anyone else… And I’m feeling a bit unwell right
now…”
“Wait, I’ll send someone to pick you guys up.”
Hearing his arrangements, Patricia seemed a bit hurt, “Theo? Weren’t you just discharged from the
hospital? You should be close to Donebridge, right? Can’t you come by yourself? Or is it… Ellinor
doesn’t want you to go?”
Ellinor, who was nearby, heard this, rolled her eyes, as if saying, how could this be about her?
Seriously!
“Theo, I think I’m feeling unwell again. I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on until the person you send
arrives… Theo… I’m really uncomfortable right now…”
Theo frowned deeply, silent for two seconds, “Send me your location.”
Patricia’s tone immediately brightened, “Okay! I’ll send it to you right now, thank you…”

When Theo hung up the phone, Ellinor had already unbuckled her seat belt, ready to get out of the car.
But just as she moved, her wrist was grabbed!
“Where are you going?”
He sounded complicated.
“To avoid anyone thinking that I’m affecting your relationship with Ms. Howard, I choose to leave by
cab! You don’t have to worry about me, you go!“,
She took the opportunity to vent at him, relieving some of her internal discomfort.
“Sit down, we’re going together!”
Then, Ellinor was forced to buckle her seatbelt….
The car quickly turned around, heading towards Donebridge.
Ellinor was a bit annoyed, “I shouldn’t be there when you go to Patricia…”
“But the person I like is you!”
Theo impatiently interrupted her.
Ellinor was surprised.
“Stop making such jokes, I won’t…”
