Chapter 15

Ellinor’s face started turning purplish–red.

Marissa, having just caught her breath, quickly said, “Theo, let her go.”

Only then did Theo loosen his grip, shoving Ellinor aside to ask, “Granny, are you okay?”

Marissa weakly waved her hand, “I’m okay now. I just had a dale pit stuck in my throat. Ellinor saved me using first aid. The pit on the floor. I just spat it out.”

Theo paused, looking down at the insignificant pit on the floor, then back at Ellinor, his brows slightly furrowed.

Ellinor, pushed harshly to the ground, picked herself up and rubbed her sore arm..

She then walked over to Marissa and explained, “Marissa, I baked that dessert for myself this morning. I didn’t remove the pits from the dates, which isn’t suitable for the elderly. I’m sorry for the trouble I caused.”

She bowed sincerely, then straightened up to look at Theo, “Mr. Blanchet, I suggest you call a doctor for a check–up, just to be safe.”

With that, she turned and went upstairs, back to her room.

Theo watched Ellinor’s thin figure, his expression complex.

Marissa, having been frightened, was helped into her room for a rest.

In the afternoon, their family doctor came to check on Marissa, took her blood pressure, and confirmed she was alright.

After the doctor left, a revived Marissa said, “Veronica, you go out, I have some words with your brother.”

Veronica was reluctant but left obediently at Theo’s stern look.

Now alone, Theo walked beside the bed, asking. “Do you feel unwell anywhere?”

Marissa looked up at her tall grandson and smiled kindly. “I’m fine, Theo, don’t worry.”

“I’m glad you’re okay.” Theo said.

Marissa asked, “Theo, how did you meet this Ellinor?”

“Coincidentally.” Theo said.

Marissa slowly nodded. “That girl is good, I like her.”
