The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 150

Ellinor nervously stood up, "Chase, I need you to distract him. I need to sneak out; he can't know I'm here!"

"Gotcha!"

Chase immediately dropped his cheerful grin and went to do as Ellinor instructed.

Ellinor followed Chase to the office door and peeked through a crack to see what was going on outside.

She saw Theo stepping off the elevator, with Collin trailing right behind him.

With a smile, Chase stepped forward, "Mr. Blanchet, welcome! Sorry, we didn't meet you downstairs."

Theo nodded nonchalantly, "No problem."

Chase effortlessly turned to lead the way, "I heard from our general manager, Ms. Gipson, that you're interested in our building's architecture. Would you like a tour of the building first?"

Theo politely declined, "No need; I've already seen the ground floor structure. I just need to meet with Ms. Gipson and Moon right now."

Chase apologized, "I'm sorry, but Ms. Gipson is in a meeting right now, and it might take a while. How about I take you to the rooftop in the meantime? The structure there is quite different from the ground floor, and you get a great view of the city!"

Theo didn't change his expression, "No need, I can wait for Ms. Gipson in the reception room."

Chase knew that if he pushed it any further, it might raise Theo's suspicions.

So, he shot a helpless glance at the general manager's office and politely said, "Alright then, Mr. Blanchet, please follow me."

Ellinor furrowed her brows when she saw Chase lead Theo into the reception room. She was stuck.

The reception room was on the way to the elevator or stairs from the general manager's office, and it was surrounded by glass walls.

Theo would definitely spot her if she tried to leave.

But having Ida meet Theo directly in the reception room wouldn't be appropriate either.

Theo was a big client who bid a billion; he deserved to be received in the office.

Ida suggested, "Why don't you hide in the small break room in the back for now? It seems like Mr. Blanchet is busy, he probably won't stay here for long."
