Chapter 1361
Tumed out that Theo and she had something in common. His mom went missing when he was just a kid; no one
knew if she was alive or dead. Just like her mom
“So where’s his dad now?”
Belinda heaved a sigh. “After Theo’s mom took off, his dad stopped going outside. Not long after, he ran off to a
monastery on Cloud Mountain and became a monk.
Putnam Blanchet kept sending people to Cloud Mountain to get him, but Theo’s dad wouldn’t come down. This
pissed Putnam off so much that he got sick because of it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater, Putnam realized his grandson Theo was nothing like his son. His son was always messing around and living it
up when he was young, while Theo was all about work and didn’t show any interest in girls. This got people
assuming that Theo might be gay.
Putnam was freaking out and pushed him to get married. He said any girl would do. If he didn’t get married,
Putnam wouldn’t have surgery. And that’s what led to all the stuff that happened later.”
Ellinor felt a bitter pang while listening to this. “Did his parents just abandon him like that? How old was he then?”
Belinda thought for a moment.
“From what my mom said, he was about seven or eight. Even though he was just a kid, he understood what was
happening at home, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Everyone thought Theo was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and that he had it all from the get-go. But no one
knew that he had been carrying a heavy burden since he was a kid; he was always under a lot of stress.
He didn’t have a normal childhood. His dad was a deadbeat and got cut off by his family. The elders at home put all
their hopes on him.
From the moment he was born, he was seen as the successor of the company. The moment he opened his eyes
every day, there were all kinds of classes waiting for him. From morning till night, he didn’t have any time for
himself until he became an adult.”
Listening to Belinda recount Theo’s past, Ellinor subconsciously dug her fingers into her palm, her mind in a whirl.
She had never asked about Theo’s background, nor had she intentionally looked into his past.
Like most people, she thought he was born into a family where he was loved by everyone, worry-free, and had
everything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheo never complained and never talked about his past. He just often smoked alone in silence.
There was a bitter feeling in her heart. She realized that even someone born at the top of the pyramid could have
so much sorrow.
“Veronica is actually Theo’s half-sister. The Blanchet family rarely has girls, so she was brought up in the family.
Theo has always been good to Veronica.
And as his niece, he’s also always been good to me. Theo might seem strict sometimes, but he has a gentle side.
He’s not a hopeless bad guy.”
Ellinor actually agreed, nodding unconsciously.
Theo gave off a very cold and strict impression, giving off a “strangers keep out” vibe, but he wasn’t a bad guy.
Belinda carefully asked, “So Ellinor, you’re gonna give Theo another chance this time and make up with him, right?
