Chapter 179
If she doesn’t do anything today, she’ll feel guilty later on, and that’s even more mental torture!
Realizing this. Elinor took a deep breath and said, “Hold on! I can help you!”
Theo stopped in his tracks
Just like a vampire, still with a shred of humanity, struggling with his primal instincts when faced with an enticing human, trying to control the urge to pounce…
Theo squinted his eyes menacingly “Why?”
Elinor stepped in front of him hesitated for a moment, then undid the belt on his bathrobe and said. This is an emergency, consider it a humanitarian act! Besides, you’re pretty handsome and have a great body, so helping you out isn’t a loss for me! Let’s do it!”
Her words, all hitting his soft spots, were devoid of emotion, only fairness.
Theo, suppressing his excitement, stared at her and said. “If it were any other man in this situation, would you also be so kind to help him?”
Elinor nodded “If he’s a good person, I would!”
Theo was planning to let her off the hook, but hearing her firm answer, he felt angry instead.
So, he’s not special at all!
Would she do the same for other men?
Theo extended his arm, putting it around her waist as if to punish her, looking at her and saying, “Alright, since the kind–hearted Ms. Mendoza is so charitable, I’ll accept.”
Elinor had more to say, but a passionate kiss swiftly approached, silencing her!
Theo picked her up and threw her onto the bed, his strong body pressing down on her, his rough hand gently brushing away the hair on her face. “Regretting it yet?”
Elinor, dizzy from the kiss, closed her eyes, unwilling to confront him, and declared firmly, “No regrets for doing a good deed”
Theo’s eyes sparkled with a fiery light, and he laughed sarcastically, “Good, even if you regret it now. I won’t let you off. Kind–hearted Ms. Mendoza, no crying from now on!”
Elinor was in turmoil, she knew she was slowly getting caught up in it, but she attributed all her reactions to saving a life‘, ignoring any other emotions.
This way, her relationship with Theo will be easier to manage later, less complicated, and still just a partnership that can be ended at any time.
After a night of passion,
By the time she woke up, the day was already bright.
Elinor stirred, feeling pain all over, as if she’d been taken apart and put back together.
She was alone in bed. She found a bathrobe to put on and got out of bed.
She wanted to go to the bathroom but noticed the door to the room was slightly open and there were voices in the hall; it was Collin.
She went over to take a look.
“Mr Blanchet, the kidnappers from yesterday have all been caught, but their leader vehemently denies knowing his men and even had a perfect alibi prepared. There’s no evidence of contact with his men in his communication tools; the police couldn’t do anything and had to release him again.”
“Find that man, bring him to me.”
“Understood”
Theo turned around to push the door open. Seeing Elinor with sleep in her eyes standing at the door, he frowned slightly and asked, “Are you awake?”
