The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1169

He was telling the truth. To this day, he really didn't have a clue where Ellinor was hiding.

In order to keep Theo from getting any leads, Ellinor had made it clear that they shouldn't dial the phone number she was currently using.

Theo didn't say a word. He had Ellinor's phone on him and had tinkered with it the last time they parted. Now, except for his number and emergency calls, nobody else could get through.

He had a hunch that day that Ellinor was planning to bolt, so he heightened his guard and even posted a bunch of bodyguards at home to watch over her. He planned to stash her at home until he finished his business abroad, and then they could sort out their issues.

But, to his surprise, none of this was able to hold Ellinor back. She ran away anyway.

Theo didn't intend to give Chase a hard time. He had already checked all the places where Ellinor could be but found no trace of her. He said coldly, "If you hear anything about her, tell me right away!"

Chase really wanted to retort by saying, "In your dreams!" But in order not to raise any suspicion, he just complied. "Alright."

With that, Theo left with a somewhat disheartened air.

Ida came out of her bedroom just in time to see Theo enter the elevator. She squinted in confusion. "Mr. Blanchet seems really worried, huh?"

Chase chuckled sarcastically, "Well, duh. His kid's missing. What man wouldn't be?"

Ida gave a thoughtful nod. "I think he cares about more than just the baby in Ellinor's belly."

Chase scoffed. "So what if he does? He still betrayed Ellinor's feelings and got married to another woman abroad! Now he's playing innocent?"
