Chapter 891
Devin said with a grin, “Ms. Blanchet, no worries. Ellinor already brought back your new bag yesterday. It’s in your
walk-in closet.” Only then did Veronica breathe a sigh of relief. She frowned at Ellinor, “Ellinor, you’re pulling my leg
again!”
Ellinor casually sipped her soup and asked, “What time did you come back from handing out flyers with Moran
yesterday?” Veronica’s face turned red at the mention of Moran. She became shy and coughed. “Um, probably
around eight.”
Ellinor chuckled, “The school gates are usually empty by six, right? Where did you guys go after that?”
“We didn’t go anywhere special; we just took a random stroll.” Veronica lowered her head to eat, looking somewhat
shy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDevin came over with a kettle to refill Ellinor’s cup. He whispered, “Ellinor, the bodyguard saw Ms. Blanchet with a
boy on the street yesterday. The boy even walked Ms. Blanchet home.”
No wonder Veronica was in such a good mood today; things seemed to be going well.
Ellinor didn’t find it surprising. Moran was well-mannered and would never let a girl walk home alone.
Veronica suddenly remembered something, “Oh right, Ellinor, my grandparents are coming back in a few days.”
“Oh.” Ellinor replied without any particular reaction, continuing to sip her soup.
She had met Marissa Blanchet before and thought she was a very kind woman.
She had not met Putnam Blanchet, who apparently forced Theo to get married. He said he wouldn’t undergo
surgery unless Theo got married.
Seeing that Ellinor was in her own world, Veronica added, “My grandma likes you, but my grandpa is very picky. He
might not approve of you, so prepare yourself!”
“Thanks for the heads-up.” Ellinor continued sipping her soup, still in her own world.
What was she supposed to prepare for?
They might not even end up as family.
She decided to just go with the flow.
At this moment, a servant came in and said, “Ellinor, a person claiming to be your classmate is looking for you
outside.”
Before Ellinor could react, Veronica became alert, “A boy or a girl?”
The servant truthfully replied, “It’s a male classmate.”
Veronica frowned, “What are you up to, Ellinor? Why are you having guys over while my brother is not home?”
Ellinor looked at her, “Are you more jealous than your brother now? Can’t I have a male friend?”
Veronica blinked unnaturally, lifted her chin, and snorted, “Hmph! Who’s jealous of you? You’re full of yourself!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEllinor ignored her and turned to the servant, “If he’s looking for me, let him in.”
“Yes.” The servant left to carry out the order.
Shortly after, the servant led Moran in.
The moment Veronica saw that it was Moran, she realized she was still in her pajamas and ran upstairs
immediately.
As Moran approached the dining room, he only saw the figure of a girl running upstairs.
“Ellinor, what’s wrong with her?”
Ellinor chuckled, “She went to get her phone. You’re here early; have you had breakfast?”
A mix of disappointment and complexity flashed in Moran’s eyes. He tried to keep his composure, “I ate already,
Ellinor, don’t worry.” Ellinor gestured, “If you’re not eating, then please have a seat.”
A waiter came over to pull out a chair for him. Moran sat down and asked, “Ellinor, did you call me over to tutor
someone? Do you have kids in the house?”
