Chapter 884
Moran was a shy big boy. Even though he was an all-around good student, he had his fair share of ups and downs at school.
He relaxed after sitting for a bit and started chatting with Ellinor about recent happenings at school, mostly positive or funny things.
Ellinor didn’t really have any impressions of the students at school. She didn’t recognize most of the people Moran mentioned, but it sounded fun, and she occasionally interjected with a “And then?”
That was until a man pulled up a chair and sat next to her. The Icy dominance he exuded cut Moran off mid-sentence.
Moran stared at the man who had just taken a seat, feeling a chill run down his spine.
He was initially confused but quickly remembered seeing this man at Ellinor’s graduation ceremony.
He was a handsome and very suave man. His demeanor and aura were memorable.
He remembered Ellinor calling this man Theo, and he guessed that he might be some relative of hers.
So because of his crush on Ellinor, he wanted to make a good Impression on her relative. Moran stood up and politely said, “Hello, sir!”
The ‘sir’ made Theo’s face darken. Was he that old?
He was already a bit self-conscious about the age gap between him and Ellinor. He often didn’t understand some of the trendy words she used in conversation and had to look them up on his phone.
Although the generation gap between him and Ellinor wasn’t big, it wasn’t non-existent.
This boy was Ellinor’s classmate, and him calling him ‘sir’ made it seem like the age gap between him and her was even bigger.
Without getting a response, Moran started to wonder if he’d done something wrong. He said, “Sir, the building you donated to our school is now complete. On behalf of all the students and staff, I thank you for your generous donation. You’ve made a great contribution to our education.”
Theo picked up Ellinor’s water glass and took a sip, saying nothing.
Seeing this, Moran frowned.

He was a bit displeased with Theo’s action. Even if he was a relative, it wasn’t quite right for him to share a cup with Ellinor, was it?
After noticing Theo’s dark expression, Veronica feared that the guy she had a crush on might further upset Theo, and the outcome could be disastrous.
So she hinted, “Moran, this is my bro…”
Moran was taken aback and felt a bit awkward. “Uh… I remember this gentleman being a relative of Ellinor’s. So you’re all related?”
Before Veronica could reply, Ellinor answered Moran’s question, “No, he’s my husband.”
Moran’s pupils constricted. This sudden news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving him speechless.
However, after hearing this title, the chill on Theo’s face significantly dissipated.
He looked at Ellinor with a slightly satisfied smile in his eyes.
Moran found this explanation hard to accept. He wondered if Ellinor was joking with him because the man in front of him didn’t appear to be in the same age group as Ellinor.
“But didn’t this gentleman attend your graduation ceremony as your parent?”
Theo shot the impudent boy a sharp look, “Who told you a husband can’t also be a parent?”
Moran was left speechless, frowning deeply.
Ellinor had ordered Theo’s portion while asking the waiter to add more dishes.
Because when she and Veronica had just sat down at the restaurant. Theo had texted her, asking if she was done shopping. After she replied, she sent him the address of the restaurant, knowing he would come.
Theo directly asked if she was done shopping, not what she was doing; obviously, the chauffeur had already reported their itinerary. She wasn’t surprised
