The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775 

Mr. Blanchet’s mood swung like a pendulum; one minute he was raising hell, and the next he was talking to Ellinor in soft whispers. 

Ellinor stifled a yawn and responded, “She needs to learn and needs to challenge herself. Otherwise, how is your sis gonna survive out there? What if she can’t even get married?” 

Theo patted her head in agreement, “Yeah, time to throw her in the deep end.” 

Devin was speechless. 

Was Mr. Blanchet really such a loose cannon? 

Theo turned his face, and any trace of a smile was gone. He spoke coldly. “Where is she? Bring her here!” 

Devin answered respectfully, “Ms. Veronica is washing dishes in the kitchen.” 

Before he could finish his sentence, the sound of dishes shattering came from the kitchen, almost blowing everyone’s eardrums. 

Devin awkwardly continued, “I will fetch Ms. Veronica right away.” 

With that, he made a beeline for the kitchen. 

Not long after, Veronica Blanchet emerged from the kitchen, dirt–streaked and flustered, “Theo, you’re back!” 

Theo squinted at her pathetic state, his temple starting to throb as he asked, “That’s all you noticed?” 

Only then did Veronica notice Ellinor next to Theo and greet her, “Ellinor, you’re back too!” 

Ellinor nodded in response. 

Theo scolded her, “You’re grown up, yet you can’t even do some simple housework? And you can’t study either! What can you even do?” 

Veronica lowered her head, “Theo, I didn’t mean to. I’ve never done housework before” 

Theo cut her off, “You have one hour to clean this mess up!” 

“Alright…” 

Ellinor tugged at his hand, “You go up and take a shower first; I’ll talk to her.” 

Theo gave Veronica a cold glance before turning to Ellinor, his demeanor softening instantly as he lightly stroked Ellinor’s cheek, “Be careful not to slip, and watch out for the broken shards.” 

Ellinor nodded, “Alright.” 

Then Theo strode over the mess on the floor and headed upstairs. 

Once Theo’s figure disappeared at the top of the stairs, Veronica turned her head and glared at Ellinor venomously. 

“Ellinor, you wicked woman! This is all your fault! I got scolded by Theo again because of you!” 

Ellinor ignored her, simply asking, “Have you eaten?” 

Veronica was taken aback, and she glared back, “What are you even saying? You know I haven’t eaten! You gave all the servants the day off; who’s supposed to cook for me?” 

Ellinor lifted up a box in her hand, “Theo and I had dinner outside and brought you something. I’ll go warm it up.” 

Veronica was dumbfounded again, not understanding Ellinor’s intentions.
