Honeymoon?
Theo was squinting lazily; he never thought there would be a so-called honeymoon phase in his marriage with Elinor.
Bryan grumbled dissatisfied, "Jonah, you're overthinking it! Theo and Elinor won't last long; they don't need a honeymoon; Theo will eventually go on a honeymoon with my sister!"
"You don't get it!" Jonah looked at Theo sitting in the office chair and said, "Theo, what do you think? Wanna go?"
Theo flipped a page of the document and said, "She's tired today; we won't go. Tomorrow morning, I'll take her to meet up with you guys."
Jonah was delighted: "It's settled then!" Then he turned to leave.
Seeing Bryan was still there, Jonah stopped and patted him on the shoulder, asking, "What are you still doing here? Get going."
Bryan was willing to follow, but his face was a bit annoyed. He hesitated for a moment, then requested, "Jonah, can you make a call to my brother for me? I'm afraid he won't let me go."
Jonah chuckled. "Why are you still so scared of your brother?"
Bryan was helpless. "You know what kind of person he is! He's even stricter than my dad."
"Fine, I'll call him later!"
"Awesome!"
......
In the evening, at the Blanchet family residence.
Elinor had slept all afternoon after she got back, woke up hungry, and headed to the kitchen to make something.
There were quite a few servants in the Blanchet family, but except for Devin, who was somewhat respectful towards Elinor, most of them were from Veronica Blanchet's side and held hostility towards her.
