Chapter 1379
Also, if a woman had a character like Sophia, you could bet that her dad was not a saint.
Thaddeus was rumored to be a cold-blooded killer. He had no mercy; he was willing to do whatever it took to get
what he wanted.
Ellinor was worried, not distrustful.
But she could tell that this man was determined, and she probably couldn’t stop him.
“I trust you.” She said calmly and firmly, and then added, “But I don’t trust Sophia and her father.”
Theo clearly understood her worries; he was not taking things lightly either.

Ellinor knew she couldn’t talk him out of it. She huffed, decided to drop it, and started eating.
Theo served her food warmly.
Ellinor was eating, and then a thought popped into her head. “Oh, right, what was that about your fake death? You
were fine; why did you let a rumor spread that you were blown up?”
While serving her food, Theo replied truthfully, “The fake death was to expose the puppet master behind the
scenes, but I didn’t expect you to risk looking for me.”
Ellinor frowned. “So I messed up your plan?”
Theo chuckled. “No, but you can’t do such dangerous things for me next time, got it?”
Ellinor didn’t respond and then asked, “So, the silver-haired man who kidnapped me twice, he’s not the puppet
master? There’s someone else behind the scenes?”
Theo nodded. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have involved you in Blanchet family issues. Now that you’re being watched by
those people, you could be used as a bargaining chip at any time, and it’s dangerous.”
Ellinor didn’t care. “So what? I’m already being watched, and there’s no escape. Actually, you could have told me
the truth from the beginning. I wouldn’t have jumped to conclusions and thought you had other motives.”
Theo sighed while looking at her helpless face. “I know you; if I told you the truth, you wouldn’t be scared of those
people, and you wouldn’t stay home like I asked, but start investigating instead; that would have alerted them
sooner.”
Ellinor realized that he was not wrong. She wouldn’t be scared; she would definitely investigate.
Theo spoke as if he were coaxing a child, “Ellinor, promise me that you’ll stay home for the next three days and

“Alright, got it.”Ellinor agreed with no enthusiasm.
He had just told her that, besides the silver-haired kidnapper, there was a puppet master behind the scenes. Since
he decided to go abroad for three days, she didn’t want him to worry about her safety while abroad.
Actually, she now felt that Theo, who seemed mature, decisive, and firm, was someone who needed to be cared
for.
Yesterday, when Belinda told her about Theo’s past, she felt a bit bitter. She thought his parents were selfish
because they only cared about their own happiness and did not take their responsibility as parents seriously. After
getting disappointed in their marriage, they left Theo alone
