Falling For My Mysterious Wife By Cassidy Alfaro Chapter 251
Chapter 251
Elaina was very embarrassed. If she had not promised Jalen in advance, she would not have hesitated to accept Adriana’s invitation, but now it seemed that it was not good to break the appointment.
As if seeing her hesitation, Adriana narrowed her eyes and looked at Elaina suspiciously. “What? You got a date?”
“It’s not a date. It’s just two friends going to see a show,” Elaina replied, not daring to look directly into Adriana’s eyes.
“That’s good. I’ll join you and see what designs are popular recently.” Adriana looked at Elaina with interest as if she had already seen through her.
Elaina wanted to slap herself. Why would she say there was a show? Why didn’t she just say she wanted to stay home? Now she could not explain herself.
Elaina was in a dilemma, but Adriana wanted to laugh. “Forget it. I’ll go by myself. I don’t want to intrude on you and your date.”
“Date?” Elaina was shocked. “He’s not my date. Adriana, don’t talk nonsense.”
“No? Then the person who sent you here just now was not Jalen? Aren’t you going to the show with him?” Adriana kept pressing Elaina, making her speechless.
Elaina smiled awkwardly and still tried to explain, “It’s just to watch the show, not a date.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Oh, yes, yes, whatever you say.” Adriana did not argue with Elaina anymore. In her opinion, it was
a date.
However, she could not help but admire Jalen. The last time Adriana saw Jalen, Elaina was very indifferent toward him. It had only been a short while before Jalen fixed it, which was amazing.
After being teased by Adriana, Elaina did not stay in the company anymore. She got up and went
downstairs, ready to leave.
Just as she walked downstairs, Elaina saw Jalen waiting for her not far away. When she was about to walk over, a car suddenly stopped in front of her.
“Theodore?” Seeing that it was Theodore, Elaina was a little surprised.
Theodore got out of the car with his face darkened. “I called you. Why didn’t
you answer?”
“What? Did you?” Elaina was confused. She subconsciously took out her phone to look at the call log.
There were calls from Theodore that she did not pick up. Thinking about it carefully, Elaina should have been concentrating on drawing at that time. The phone was on mute, so she did not hear it.
“I’m sorry, Theodore. I was doing my design earlier, so I didn’t hear my phone ring,” Elaina apologized, feeling very embarrassed.
However, this didn’t make Theodore look better. On the contrary, her apology made him feel even worse. “Ella, when did you become so distant from me?”
After just one night, Theodore suddenly felt that he was so far away from Elaina. It could be said. that they became strangers.
“No, Theodore. You are thinking too much.” Elaina gave a short laugh and did not dare to look into Theodore’s eyes.
Theodore did not give up just like that. He grabbed her wrist and asked, “Ella, do you not want me in your life anymore?”
Elaina bit her lip, not knowing how to answer.
Elaina surely still wanted to see Theodore, but now she could not just pretend that nothing had happened even though she wanted to. She just could not do it.
“Theodore, you are hurting me.” Elaina wanted to break free, but she failed.
It was not that she really could not shake off Theodore’s hand, but she could not fight with him. If
that was the case, then their relationship was really doomed.
“Let her go.”
Jalen’s voice sounded. In the blink of an eye, he had already walked up to Elaina, protecting her behind him as he stared at Theodore.
Theodore felt a stab in his heart seeing this. “Ella is my sister! I am talking to my sister. It’s none of your business.”
If not for Elaina, he would have asked Jalen to get lost.
