Bartlett didn’t answer her, but he also didn’t try to shake off her hand.
Soon after, a light suddenly appeared in the darkness. The butler of the mansion hurried over with a
flashlight, calming everyone down, “Guests, please don’t panic. The power outage is due to a circuit
short–circuit! We have sent someone to fix it; it should be
back on soon.”
“Please fix it ASAP, my girlfriend is scared of the dark!”
“Man, you gave us
real fright!”
“Don’t worry everyone, it’s just a power cut!”
About a minute later, the chandeliers in the banquet hall lit up again.
Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief. Everything was back to normal.
However, Jonah was already standing in the middle of the dance floor, having straightened his clothes
and tie. He smiled at his friends, “Sorry guys, I finished my dance during the blackout. If you missed it,
well, better luck next time!”
Ellinor was suspicious. Could the blackout have been Jonah’s doing?
If not, Jonah was quite lucky. A power outage right at the crucial moment.
She didn’t want to watch Jonah strip, but he had obviously raised the stakes in the poker game just
now on purpose. It was of a letdown to not see him get his just desserts.
The power was back on, and Ellinor let go of Bartlett’s arm. She looked up to thank him, “Thank you…”
bit
Her words suddenly stopped because when she looked up, she didn’t see Bartlett as she had
expected. Instead, she was met with Theo’s cold and expressionless face.
Theo?
How could it be him?
He clearly wasn’t standing there before the power cut.
Ellinor never expected that the person she grabbed in the dark was Theo.
Instinctively, she stepped back, wanting to get away from him.
However, because Bartlett had ordered a juice for Ellinor, the waiter bringing it was approaching from
behind her.
Startled by Ellinor’s sudden move, the waiter almost dropped the tray, and the juice almost spilled on
her.
“Watch out!”
At that moment, Theo reached out and pulled her back, preventing her from colliding with the waiter.
Although the waiter was visibly shaken, he still managed to steady the tray.
Ellinor had wanted to get away from Theo, but instead, he pulled her towards him. He tightly embraced
her and the atmosphere instantly became tense..
Theo
Patricia Howard’s voice suddenly rang out.
Ellinor snapped back to reality and looked towards the source of the sound..
Patricia was standing not far away, holding her child named Baber, and watching them. She blinked her
doe–like eyes and furrowed her brows.
Balfour and Haillie were also standing next to Patricia, looking at her with puzzled eyes.
Realizing the situation, Ellinor immediately stepped away from Theo, making space for Patricia and the
child.
Patricia walked towards Theo with the child in her arms, adopting a tender and loving wife’s demeanor,
“Theo, the sudden power outage scared both me and the child. He has been fussing to find you!”
