over instead.

udden dear in her eyes, he reluctantly changed his mind and handed the boy

The next second, he realized what he’d just done, and his face soured. “Just because she’s Theodore’s worsan, she gets special treatment?” he thought

Once Eliana took the little boy, he wrapped his tiny arms around her neck and stared at her, silent.

Eliana gave the boy a massuring smile and then frowned at Clinton, “You even go after kids

Is now!

Clinton narrowed his eyes and said in a bow, deliberately ominous tone, “Didn’t you notice? All those annoying women from yesterday are gona:

Eliana suddenly realized how eerily quiet the courtyard was Alarmed, she snapped, “What did you do to them?!”

Clinton jerked his chin behind her. “See for yourself.”

Eliana immediately turned around and saw, through a nearby window, two female teachers inside teaching the kids how to make sandwiches. Just then, one of the teachers looked up, saw her, and waved with a bright smile.

“How is everyone acting so calm and peaceful when there’s trouble right outside?” Eliana wondered.

At that moment, Clinton continued, “I don’t want this place anymore. Y

You can renew the lease.”

Eliana turned around, shocked, “Why the sudden change of heart?”

Clinton raised an eyebrow. “Before I answer that, why don’t you tell me what your relationship is with Theodore?”

‘He knows Theodore?” Eliana thought. She didn’t know who Clinton was, so she stayed on guard. “If you’re curious, ask him yourself.”

Clinton snorted. “If he were willing to tell me, would I be asking you?”

Eliana shook her head. “Then I’m afraid I can’t tell you either.”

Clinton frowned, unable to figure out how Eliana really felt about Theodore. Then he remembered how Anthony had held her yesterday and couldn’t help but wonder if she would do the same thing as Alice had done.

“Let me give you some advice,” he said. “Theodore isn’t someone who falls for people easily. Don’t toy with his feelings just because he’s going through a rough patch. If you hurt him, you’d be in serious trouble.”

‘Il Theodore truly has feelings for me, then why wouldn’t he tell anyone that I’m his wife?” Eliana thought, confused. Then she nodded and replied, “I get it–if someone does you a favor, you return it in kind.”

As soon as Clinton left, Eliana hurried back inside with the little boy in her arms.

The moment she walked in, a round–laced girl came over, lace full of admiration. “Ellie, you actually got that man to change his mind. That’s incredible!”

But Eliana knew the truth–it wasn’t her who was incredible. It was Theodore

She looked around the room. The aroma of food was already drifting through the air–dinner must be on the stove. All the kids and teachers were there,

Chapter 68

Just like any other day.

Aber setting the little boy down, still buzzing with excitement, Elana slipped into a quiet corner and called Theodore. She was eager to share with him without having to wall until she got home,

This was her first time calling him. She just hoped he’d answer. Three seconds later, the call connected.

Eliana’s face it up, and she immediately said, “Theodore, it’s me, Eliana”

Theodore just gave a calm “Mm,” sounding like he’d expected her call. “I recognized your voice. What’s up?”

Thinking about how she’d claimed last night that even the floor to ceiling windows were paid for with her own money, Eliana suddenly left little embarrassed and mumbled, “So you’re actually super rich?“

To her surprise, Theodore replied, “I’m not rich”

“Then how did you get Clinton to back off from buying the Therapy i

Center?

Other than outbidding Clinton, Eliana really couldn’t think of any other reason that would make Clinton walk away from a piece of land he was so determined to get.

But Theodore’s explanation was blunt and direct. “Because I’ve put him in his place before”

Eliana w

was suddenly at a loss for words.

She thought, “How can I forget? At his peak, Theodore was the kind of guy who’d send his own dad to jail and break his brother’s leg–dealing with someone like Clinton was nothing to him. Who needs money for that?”

Just then, someone tapped her on the shoulder from behind. “Ellie, who are you talking to?”

Glancing sideways, Eliana saw it was one of the teachers she was familiar with. She quickly said into the phone, “Uh, I’ve got something to do. Let’s talk when I get home.”

“Alright, I’ve got something to handle too, Theodore replied coolly, hanging up first.

As soon as Eliana put her phone away, the teacher gave her a mischievous look. “You’re literally glowing–are you in love or something?”

“Was I?‘ Eliana wondered. She sniffed and changed the subject. “Mom, something smells amazing. What is that?”

The teacher chuckled. “Sandwiches! They’re ready. Why don’t you stay and have some before you go?”

Eliana was tempted, but then she remembered Theodore was waiting at home to be fed, so she asked, “Could I maybe take some to–go?”

The teacher’s smile grew even wider. “How many servings?

Eliana blushed bright red, but still honestly held up two fingers.

“Ah–hal I knew it. Spill it is it that handsome guy who came running to save you yesterday?” the teacher said excitedly.

“No, not He’s got a fiancéel Eliana hurried to explain.

“Alright, whoever it is, you’d better bring him by for us to meet sometime.”

Eliana just shrugged. “Well, that depends on whether he is willing to come or not.”

Meanwhile, in Theodore’s room at Russell Manor, a middle–aged doctor and two strong young male nurses stood by, fully equipped and looking ready for anything.
