Chapter 256 Who The Hell

Are You

Thiago wrapped up his work at both studios and glanced at his watch. It was well past ten in the evening. He

grabbed his suit jacket from the back of the chair and left, carrying the weight of a long day on his shoulders.

At a nearby street stall, he bought two sandwiches. He figured Ellie might still be up, and they could share a midnight snack.

The fingerprint scanner at Ellie's door let him in without a hitch. But as he stepped inside, he froze. An older

woman with silver hair stood nearby in satin sleepwear. Her glare could have cut through steel.

Thiago backed up and double-checked the apartment number. "I am indeed in the right place," he murmured.

Tori studied him. He was sharply dressed and holding a bag. He moved like someone who belonged here. And

he was clearly not Jayceon.

Tori raised a slipper, ready to strike. "Who the hell are you?"

Thiago's sharp gaze softened as he thought of something. "You must be the housekeeper Ellie hired," he said.

Lately, Ellie had been complaining about their packed schedules. No one was doing the cleaning, looking after Patrick, or cooking. She had mentioned hiring a housekeeper.

"Housekeeper? I am not the housekeeper!" Tori hurled the slipper at Thiago,

furious.

Though experienced in fighting, Thiago wouldn't raise a hand to an older woman. He stepped back toward the doorway and gently caught her wrist to stop her. "Then who are you?"
