Chapter 1380

He wasn’t as lucky as Ellinor. At least when her mom took off, she took her along, even though she ended up living

with the Mendoza family out of sheer desperation.

So in her fuzzy childhood memories, her firmest belief was that her mom loved her to bits. Even when her mom

was not around, she never felt devoid of motherly love or abandoned, thanks to this belief.

As for Theo, he could hardly deny that his parents chose to ditch him; they didn’t give a damn about him. His young

soul surely took a heavy blow. Luckily, even though Theo grew up in the harsh environment of the Blanchet family,

his personality didn’t get twisted. He just became a bit cold and standoffish, which made people find him hard to

approach. But deep down, he was still kind and gentle.

That was pretty darn admirable.

Thinking about all this made Ellinor’s heart soften a bit. “Theo.”

Theo was peeling shrimp for her. “Hmm?”

“Give me an address.”

Theo raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding her request. “What address?”

She pouted a bit bossily. “Sophia’s address! Just in case you don’t come back in three days, I’ll have somewhere to

find you.”

Theo’s expression froze for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face. “Are you really that scared that I

won’t come back?”

Ellinor frowned. “Cut the crap! Just give me the address!”

Theo fed her the peeled shrimp. “I promised to be with you in the delivery room. I will come back.”

“I don’t care. Just give me the address.”

“Alright, I’ll text it to you later.”

That was more like it. Ellinor ate the shrimp he fed her, then held out her hand and gave him a thumbs-up. “Theo,

when you come back, we’re gonna stick together. But you can’t lie to me or hide things from me anymore.”

Theo looked at her small hand and then hooked it with his rough, big hand. “Hmm, I won’t. I’ll never do it again.

From now on, I’ll listen to you in everything; we’re gonna stick together.”

Ellinor felt a bit sad while holding his warm, big hand. She really didn’t want him to go.

Maybe it was because her due date was approaching and her hormones were all over the place, making her

emotions fluctuate.

Soon, the Howard brothers, Balfour and Byran, came back. They chatted about other stuff, finished their meal

together, and then went to the airport to see Theo off.

Before boarding, Theo lightly scratched Ellinor’s cheek. “Alright, go rest with your brother. I’ll call you as soon as I

land.”

Ellinor nodded, watching Theo and his assistant, Collin, walk into the VIP passage of the airport.

Even when she couldn’t see him anymore, she stood there for a long time, lost in thought.

Balfour gently ruffled Ellinor’s hair, bringing her out of her daze. “Alright, we should head home now.”

Ellinor felt a bit uneasy, her brows slightly furrowed. “I don’t know why, but I’m a bit worried.”

Understanding her feelings, Balfour tried to comfort her. “Don’t worry, even though Thaddeus is a tough nut to

crack, Theo isn’t a pushover either. He’ll be alright.”
