She started to wonder if all of that was real or if it was just her imagination playing tricks on her.
But the pain coursing through her body assured her that this was no dream or illusion.
Every bit of it was real.
Theo had really found her!
But he didn't say a word and left just like that.
That was not like Theo at all. Why didn't he blow his top when he found her?
He didn't take her away either; he just knocked, took one look at her, and left?
It was so puzzling!
Ellinor snapped back to reality when Bartlett's phone rang again.
She answered the call in a daze.
Bartlett's gentle voice came through. "Ellinor, I forgot my phone; I will send someone to get it tomorrow."
"Okay, got it." Ellinor replied, then hung up.
Her mind was in chaos; this kind of confusion was like nothing she'd ever felt!
What was Theo trying to say with his actions?
She should be relieved that Theo didn't blow his top and didn't do anything to her. He didn't even take her back to the Blanchet Villa.
But why was there this suffocating feeling in her chest?
The servants didn't know what had happened; they were just drawn by the noise of the wind.
A servant hurried over to close the door after noticing that Ellinor was standing at the door with her hair in a mess from the wind.
