Chapter 106

Ellinor seemed to be feeling worn out and said slowly

“I hope you can try to trust me in the future, don’t always be on quard, thinking I’d stray to other men. I need some personal space! I’ve told you that since I’ve agreed to work with you for the next three months, I won’t do anything to harm you before the contract ends. You can rest assured

Theo asked, “Do you think I came to see you today because I don’t trust you?”

Ellinor looked up and glanced at the man. “What else? If you trusted me, you wouldn’t have stuck around with us all day and kept an eye on me in our booth, it was super awkward for my classmates!”

Theo said lightly, “Ms Mendoza, we may be business partners, but during the next three months, I will inevitably share some responsibility for your safety I don’t doubt your character, it’s the guys hanging around you that I don’t trust Can’t you see they’re after something?”

Ellinor shrugged off his concerns, Tm not a fool, of course I can see what they’re up to. But I know how to handle it.”

Theo snorted. “You know how to handle it, then why did you take the drink they offered so readily?”
