“It’s me.”
Theodore’s magnetic voice came from the other side of the line. Even though they couldn’t see each other, Elaina could feel his
warmth, and her mood improved a lot.
“Theodore, how have you been? When are you coming back?” Elaina asked with a smile. She did not ask why Theodore did not
contact her, nor did she ask if he had already let go of the past.
“I’m pretty good. The establishment of a branch company overseas goes quite smoothly. Everything is on the right track. It might
take a while before I can return.” He sounded like he had really opened a branch company.
Elaina laughed when she heard that. Just as she was about to ask more, she heard Theodore ask,
“You broke up with Jalen?”
Theodore did not know when they were together and only knew that they had broken up after hearing the news. He could still
call to ask.
When it came to Jalen, Elaina’s originally bright smile froze. “Yes. You also know about that?”
It spread so far and wide, even Theodore, who was abroad, knew about it.
Elaina did not know that although Theodore had gone abroad, he still paid attention to her. Other than letting Andrew take care of
her, Theodore had arranged for someone to protect Elaina.
It was just that he could not say it out.
“The matter has hyped up. It would be difficult for me not to know about it,” Theodore chuckled
and seemed to be joking.
Elaina did not know how to explain the matter to Theodore. She couldn’t tell Theodore about Ethel,
right?
Otherwise, Theodore would hate Jalen even more.
Elaina did not know why she still cared about this, but subconsciously, she did not want Theodore
to hate Jalen.
She laughed dryly before explaining, “We are not right for each other, so we separated.”
“Is that so? Didn’t he bully you?” Theodore, who was on the other side of the line, frowned and did
not believe it.
Elaina’s heart skipped a beat. She was pale, but Theodore could see the expression on her face.
“Of course not. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? He can’t bully me.”
Theodore was silent. He felt that it made sense. Elaina was not the kind of person who would be
easy to bully.
Theodore heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I told you that he was not suitable for believe me. Now you know, right?”
you, but you didn’t
“Yes, I do.” Elaina also regretted it. If only she had listened to Theodore at that time.
But there was no use crying for spilled milk. She did not know that she had been taken as a
substitute.
“It’s good that you know. Keep a distance from him. I will come back as soon as possible.” As if afraid that Elaina would feel
aggrieved, Theodore decided to come back early.
Elaina nodded and agreed. She had broken up with Jalen, so naturally, she would keep a distance
from him.
Theodore was about to hang up when Elaina suddenly said, “Theodore, did Dexter tell you anything
before he left?”
“Huh? What do you mean?” Theodore did not seem to understand.
Elaina took a deep breath and told him about Jaydon. “I know he has a plan, but I don’t know what
he wanted to do.
“Theodore, I am just an ordinary person from Peach Village. Why does he have to pester me?”
Not only Jaydon but also Nitzan had a plan. But Elaina did not say it. She wasn’t sure if she was
right.
Maybe Nitzan only liked her and had no other purpose.
After she finished speaking, Theodore did not answer for a long time. If Elaina was in front of him, she would find that Theodore’s
face was terrifyingly gloomy at this moment.
