Realizing that she really didn't want to, Theo sighed, "Fine, I respect your decision. If you don't want to, then forget it."
He really let her go.
Ellinor didn’t let her guard down, though. She asked him, "Aren't you leaving?"
Theo gently scratched her nose with his finger, "You've brushed your teeth and washed your face; now it's my turn. You're the one who should leave. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't mind."
As he spoke, he began to unbutton his shirt, revealing his collarbone.
Upon seeing this, Ellinor quickly left. She knew his personality; if she stayed any longer, trouble would definitely ensue.
Theo chuckled as he watched her rush off. She was carrying his child and still acted so shy. How cute!
After leaving the bathroom, Ellinor made sure to close the door to prevent him from bothering her again.
She didn't feel happy about their reunion.
She hoped he would tell her who the woman on the phone was, but he didn't seem to care.
He clearly knew that she heard that woman's voice.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Ellinor, who had just changed her clothes, thinking it was Collin, went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Bartlett's smiling face appeared, "Good morning, Ellinor!"
Ellinor managed a smile, "Morning!"
