Chapter 419
“What are you guys up to?” Theo’s voice boomed, authoritative even without anger
Caught in their heated debate about whether to call an ambulance, Ellinor and Byran both turned to
see Theo standing there, his face a blank slate.
“Thea!”
Patricia snapped out of her gloomy thoughts and instantly put on an innocent facade. She trotted over
to Theo, sighing helplessly, “Theo, I came to apologize to Ellinor. I think there’s been some
misunderstanding between us, but it seems like she’s not willing to forgive me.”
Theo cast a glance at Patricia then lifted his gaze to Byran, but his eyes finally settled on the men’s

Ellinor didn’t respond
A chill went down Byran’s spine. He hurriedly explained, “…Theo, Ellinor said she was cold, so I gave
her my coat! And also, she’s having an allergic reaction on her neck I was about to call an ambulance,
but she’s refusing. You need to talk some sense into her!”
Theo was already ticked off by Byran putting his coat on Ellinor, and now he was anxiously checking
out Ellinor’s neck while her dress neckline was already quite low
Ignoring Patricia, Theo walked over to Ellinor, “Darling, return the coat to Byron.”
Ellinor hadn’t planned on wearing his coat. Byran had forcefully put it on her after removing the towel
she had around her neck
She was so focused on stopping Byran from calling an ambulance that she forgot about the coat.
Upon hearing Theo’s words, she took off the coat and handed it back to Byran.
Then, Theo took off his own coat and draped it over her, covering her from chest to back, ensuring no
one could get a glimpse of her
Byran reluctantly took his coat back but still seemed uneasy, reminding Theo, “Her allergic reaction on
her neck.”
He dared to mention her neck again and even dared to look at it?
Theo sternly admonished him, “Mind your own business. Take Patricia downstairs to Balfour to avoid
any mishaps on my wife’s end!”
With that. Theo put his arm around Ellinor’s shoulder and led her back to their room.

“What is it? Theo paused.
Her eyes trembling Patricia said, “Theo, you remember the thing you promised me, right?”
Theo looked back at her, and his gaze was complex. “Don’t worry, I won’t forget.”
Patricia nodded obediently and trustingly, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Ellinor was left puzzled. She turned to look at Patricia and saw a smile on her face, the meaning of
which she couldn’t decipher.
More than that, Patricia deliberately touched her stomach and gave her a challenging look.
Suddenly, Ellinor remembered the scar on Patricia’s abdomen. She claimed it was from a cesarean
section and that she had a child with Theo.
“What are you thinking about?”
