The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1375

Chapter 1375 

He spotted this massive, sparkly moissanite in the shop, thinking no one could tell it apart from the real deal. But by the looks of Mr. Larios’ reaction, he easily clocked that it was a fake in a heartbeat.

At the Howard Group. 

Balfour was eyeballing a hefty document. It was everything he’d asked Quinton to dig up on Thaddeus International Corporation. 

Sophia, Thaddeus’ daughter, was sure as hell not going to let Ellinor off the hook because of Theo. And as Ellinor’s brother, he couldn’t afford to drop the ball. 

Quinton had just handed over the document and was about to duck out when he suddenly remembered something. 

“Mr. Howard, we’ve got wind of someone snooping on Ms. Mendoza today; it’s probably one of Thaddeus’ henchmen.” 

Balfour, engrossed in the Thaddeus International Corporation info, wasn’t surprised. “Does Theo know?” 

Quinton replied, “Probably. He has a bunch of plainclothes bodyguards patrolling our turf. They are likely to protect Ms. Mendoza from any moves by Thaddeus’ people.” 

Balfour snorted. “If it weren’t for him, Ellinor wouldn’t be in this mess.” 

Quinton kept his trap shut. 

It was a tough call, but he could tell Theo didn’t want anything to happen to Ms. Mendoza either. 

“We can’t bank entirely on Theo. We need to beef up our own security at horne. For the next few days, keep Ellinor indoors and limit visitors.” 

Quinton nodded. “Don’t sweat it, Mr. Howard. I’ve got it covered. But the doctors said Ms. Mendoza needed to stay in the hospital because of the stress. She’s home now, but she might have to go back for the delivery. The hospital is a madhouse. I’m worried…” 

Balfour had already thought of that. “I know. When the time comes, I’ll be with Ellinor in the hospital. You handle the company business for now. Alright, 

you can go.” 

“Yes, Mr. Howard.” 

After Quinton left, Balfour rang up Theo. 

The call connected quickly, but neither of the tight-lipped men said a word. 

After a moment of silence, Balfour impatiently broke it. “What’s your plan for Thaddeus?” 

Theo seemed to have expected the question, so he answered coolly, “Don’t worry, I’ve got a game plan. I’ll meet him in person in the next couple of days.” 

Balfour scoffed, “Meet him? Do you know what Thaddeus is like? Aren’t you afraid he might keep you there and make you his daughter’s hubby?” 

Theo caught the sarcasm in Balfour’s tone but didn’t argue.
