The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 181

Theo turned to Elinor and asked “Where are you headed?”

“Could you drop me home, please? Elinor replied.

As Theo hit the road, he casually told her, “Don’t bother with that assistant job anymore. I had Collin find you something to do, not to make you serve others”

Elinor turned to look at Theo, her mind ticking

She’s now Theo’s wife. If people found out she was working as an assistant, it would reflect poorly on Theo’s reputation.

Tve got a few things to wrap up, and then I’ll quit,” she promised

Theo didn’t say anything more and took her home.

As she got out of the car, something occurred to Elinor Leaning on the car window, she asked, “Mr. Blanchet, could you lend me some money? I lost my phone to the kidnappers yesterday, and I don’t have any cash on me.”

Theo looked at her, not bothering to ask how much she needed. He simply handed her his own phone and said, “The passcode is my birthday”

Elinor took the phone with a surprised look on her face. When’s your birthday?” she asked.

Theo just gave her a cold look, turned his head, rolled up the window, and drove off.

Elinor could only chuckle helplessly and resort to googling.

Mr. Blanchet’s birthday was September 17th. That’s coming up soon, isn’t it? Was Mr. Blanchet hinting at a birthday gift? This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

The Mendoza household was quiet. Only Sheila and Tracy Mendoza were home, with Arnold Mendoza out for a run.

Sheila had just gotten back and was ranting in the living room. “Mom, you said that mushroom would make men fall for you, but Mr. Blanchet didn’t react at all when he saw me yesterday! He didn’t even help me up when I fell How embarrassing!”

Tracy frowned. “That’s impossible. I tested it on your dad, and it worked wonders! If Mr. Blanchet really ate that dish, he wouldn’t be unaffected. He’d be suffering from side effects. Paralysis at the very least, if not death!”

As she spoke, Tracy rummaged through a cupboard and pulled out her secret book, ‘How to Quickly Attract a Man. She found the section about the mushroom and noticed a small note at the bottom:

(The mushroom only worked on the opposite sex you’re attracted to. The dopamine produced in the body will activate the toxin. It didn’t work on those you’re not interested in.)

Realizing the truth, Sheila was mortified!

Why wasn’t Mr. Blanchet interested in her?

Was she not pretty enough? She had a good figure and great skin, and she was charming.

Just then, they heard the front door open. They assumed it was Arnold, so they stopped talking.

But it was Elinor….

Sheila immediately looked dissatisfied “Elinor! So, you finally decided to show up, huh? Taking my salary but not working! Give it all back now!”

Without a word, Elinor walked up and slapped her!

Sheila gasped, holding her face. “Are you mad? How dare you hit me!”

Seeing this, Tracy was also alarmed. “Elinor, why on earth did you hit Sheila?”
