Chapter 1168
Although it was called Chase’s apartment, it was actually shared between Ellinor, Chase, and Ida.
Last time, after Ellinor left the Blanchet household, Theo found her holed up here.
The moment Theo stepped out of the elevator, he started hammering on the door like a madman. When no one
answered, he got antsy and kept banging
away.
Thankfully, the building was designed so each elevator served only one unit; otherwise, the neighbors would’ve
been onto him for the racket he was making.
Eventually, after Theo’s relentless assault, the door swung open.

are you here this late instead of catching some Z’s at home?”
Without changing his expression, Theo cut to the chase. “Where’s Ellinor? Get her out here now!”
Chase, nonchalantly, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said, “Mr. Blanchet, your guys have already
searched my car. Why are you still hounding me? I actually wanna know where you stashed her.”
Ignoring Chase, Theo barged right into their place.
“Ellinor, come out!”
Chase followed him in, frowning and clearly miffed. “Mr. Blanchet, do you realize you’re trespassing? I could call the
cops, you know!”
Theo ignored him. He made a beeline for the room where he’d last seen Ellinor packing, knocked, and, without
waiting for a reply, barged right in.
But there was no Ellinor. Just a chubby white cat asleep on the bed, whose fur puffed out in alarm at the sight of a
stranger invading its territory. “Meow!” Chase walked in, picked up their cat, and said to Theo, “Mr. Blanchet, she’s
really not here!”
His bloodshot eyes scanned every corner of the room, but Theo couldn’t find Ellinor, which only made him angrier.
“Where are you hiding her this time?”
Chase, looking innocent and cuddling the cat, replied, “We’re not hiding her! Mr. Blanchet, if she wanted to avoid
you, she wouldn’t be somewhere you could find her. She hasn’t even been in touch with us to avoid being found.
We called her today, and it went straight to voicemail!”
Theo’s fists clenched, and his heart filled with rage. Did the mischievous woman really not want to be found?

Other men’s wives might run away to blow off steam, deliberately going to places where their husbands could
easily find them.
But Ellinor seemed to want to run away to somewhere far away from him.
-Theo’s expression was so cold that he looked like someone owed him money.
Regardless, Chase continued to irritably speak to him. “Mr. Blanchet, maybe you should reflect on why she wants to
run away from you in the first place! If you’ve wronged her, I suggest you stop looking for her! Knowing her, even if
you find her, she won’t forgive you!”
Theo’s brow furrowed. “What did I do wrong to her?”
Chase snorted. “How would I know your marital problems? I’m just guessing since she wouldn’t disappear for no
good reason!”
Theo’s eyes dimmed, and his brows furrowed even further. “Do you know where she is or not?”
Chase answered solemnly. “I swear, I really don’t know! I wish I knew where she’d run off to; I’ve been calling her
non-stop and I can’t get through!”
