Chapter 392
Theo had heard the rumors about Ellinor having a tough time at her home, but he had no idea it was
this bad, even her own family treated her like this, her dad included.
Looking down at the expressionless Ellinor, Theo felt a knot in his stomach. He couldn’t even begin to
imagine how much crap she must’ve gone through growing up in the Mendoza family to become this
unflappable.
“Swap? Why would I swap? I’ve always intended to marry Miss Ellinor here, not someone else. Theo
scoffed.
Sheila wasn’t buying it!
She thought it was all Ellinor bewitching Theo with sweet nothings.

say anything to marry you! You’re supposed to marry me, I even received the engagement ring you
sent me! Look!”
With that, Sheila raised her hand, showing Theo the diamond ring she had purposely worn on her ring
finger.
Theo just stared blankly at Sheila’s diamond ring
Then he took Ellinor’s hand, his fingers brushing over the diamond ring on her ring finger.
I’m sorry, this is the Blanchet family’s heirloom engagement ring: I’m not sure where you got yours.”
Sheila frowned, a bit confused.
When the Blanchet family sent someone to deliver wedding gifts, they said ‘Ms. Mendoza‘ had
accepted Mr. Blanchet’s engagement ring.
Around that time, she received an anonymous diamond ring. If it wasn’t from Mr. Blanchet, then who
could it be?
There’s no such thing as a coincidence!
Mr. Blanchet must be marrying her!
“Ah! I get it! It was her! Ellinor swapped the ring when I wasn’t looking, fooled you into trusting her, and
took my place!”
Theo’s eyes darkened with disgust, “The ring on Ellinor’s finger is the Blanchet family’s heirloom. The
band is made of platinum mixed with a special material. It can’t be taken off without a special solution.
If it can’t be taken off, how could it be swapped?”
Sheila was taken aback, “How…how could that be?”
Holding Ellinor’s hand tenderly as if it were a precious treasure, Theo said, “Moreover, this ring was put

Sheila looked stunned. Engaged? Theo and Ellinor were engaged?
She refused to believe it and shook her head vigorously, “No, this can’t be1 Mr. Blanchet, a man of your
stature couldn’t possibly be interested in a plain Jane like Ellinor! I’m a popular actress and I’m clearly a
better fit to be your wife!”
There was no emotion in Theo’s eyes, “Miss Sheila, I’m not sure where you got the impression that I
would be interested in you?”
Sheila was at a loss, but she was not one to accept defeat, “Mr. Blanchet, if you could fall for someone
as plain as Ellinor, why wouldn’t you fall for me? I really don’t understand. Where do I fall short
compared to Ellinor?”
At this, someone burst out laughing.
