Theo was staring at her with a smirk.
It took Ellinor quite an effort to tie Theo's tie. She glared at him and suddenly a lightbulb went off in her head, "Superior Sir, are you available next Monday?"
"No." The man answered quickly, almost coldly.
Ellinor pouted and didn't say anything else, but she purposely messed up his tie and walked away.
The man frowned and fixed his tie himself, "What? Is something happening on Monday?"
Ellinor turned to look at Theo. After thinking about it, even if Theo was free, what role would he play at her graduation ceremony?
Plus, this man was too high-profile, it would inevitably attract unnecessary attention!
"Never mind, just asking!" She gave up.
Theo didn't ask any further. He walked up to her, lifted her chin, and asked from above, "Is your stomach still hurting?"
Ellinor glared at him, "Thanks for caring, sir, I'm fine now!"
"Good, just don't die in my house." He casually finished, let go of her pointed chin, put his suit jacket on his arm, and walked away.
Ellinor waved her fist at the man's tall figure. Theo really deserved a punch!
Later, Ellinor thought of Marissa. If she asked, her grandmother would probably agree to accompany her to the graduation ceremony.
But grandmother was old and the graduation ceremony would be long and boring, it didn't seem right to bother her...
Forget it, she'll just go by herself when the time comes!
Monday.
