Chapter 483
They were out of earshot from the boss lady and Theo’s conversation, but it felt super weird seeing a high and mighty guy like Theo chilling alone in a small roadside joint
Chase said. “Ellinor, who would’ve thought Theo was so down to earth? Here he is at a roadside joint, munching on barbecue, washing it down with beer and fries! But why’s he all by his lonesome” Drinking solo is such a bummer, man!”
Ellinor found the scene unusual too. Didn’t Theo say he was catching a flight this afternoon at the hospital? What was he doing still kicking around Greenhaven?
Ellinor remembered once when she came to this roadside barbecue joint for dinner Theo just happened to pass by, saw her, and sat down with her to try the barbecue. She was so stuffed she couldn’t stand up when they were leaving, and Theo even held her hand
It felt so awkward to think about it now!
“Who knows” Maybe he’s waiting for someone” Ellinor was bummed and lost her appetite Forget it, let’s bounce and grab a bite somewhere else
Chase gave her a sly look Waiting for someone? You think. Theo could be waiting for you?”
Ellinor gave him a glare. “Don’t be ridiculous! Just drive!”
After exchanging glances with Ida Chase quickly drove away from the barbecue joint.
At the barbecue joint. Theo sat on a small, unassuming seat that was totally at odds with his persona, attracting curious glances and whispers
Everyone was guessing who he was
But the man’s intimidating aura kept them from openly staring and they were all sneaking glances
After a few more minutes. Theo got up and left. He hadn’t touched a single thing on his table.
He walked away confidently, not caring about the admiring or puzzled looks from those around him.
Collin opened the car door for Theo. Once Theo was in he closed the door firmly before he allowed himself a sigh of relief.
For the past month, Thea would occasionally stop by this barbecue joint to sit for a while, order some food, but never eat a bite. He’d just sit there, lost in thought.
While others might not be able to guess why, Collin knew
Mrs. Blanchet, who had disappeared, had eaten here and loved the barbecue
Before Mrs Blanchet disappeared. Mr. Blanchet would occasionally ask him to get takeout from here for her. Even though Mr. Blanchet didn’t like Mrs. Blanchet eating food of dubious origin, he would still compromise because she loved it.
In the past. Collin always thought that Patricia was the most important woman in Mr. Blanchet’s heart because Mr. Blanchet would always do whatever Ms. Howard asked
of him
Only after Ellinor’s appearance did Collin see what Mr. Blanchet was like when he truly fell for a woman.
Mr. Blanchet only felt indebted to Patricia because she had saved his life
But Mr. Blanchet was in love with Ellinor He was unswayed by any external factors and unable to pull himself away
Collin got back in the front passenger seat, then turned around to report, ‘Mr. Blanchet, we still haven’t found any leads on Ms. Mendoza ”
“Hmm, how can a living person just disappear like that? Keep searching Theo’s voice was calm but resolute, filled with unwavering determination and persistence
“Got it!” Collin nodded, signaling the driver with his eyes to start the car
The top of the line Mercedes business car slowly disappeared down the road, heading in the opposite direction of the car that had briefly stopped by the roadside
