Chapter 1584

“Dad, what’s up? You seem preoccupied.” Adrian observed astutely, blinking his large eyes at the man.

Marcus snapped back to reality, shaking his head slightly. “Nothing, kiddo. Go wash up; it’s time for bed.”

“Okay.” Adrian nodded, obediently turning towards the bathroom. As he pushed open the door, his eyes widened in

surprise.

The little guy was stunned.

Marcus, noticing Adrian’s unusual behavior, quickly maneuvered his wheelchair to investigate.

He too froze when he saw Ellinor in the bathroom, sitting on the closed toilet lid. Her hands were propping up her

face in a clear display of displeasure.

Marcus blinked, instinctively glancing towards the room door to ensure it was closed. He then wheeled himself and

Adrian into the bathroom, shutting the door behind them.

“You shouldn’t be here at this time.” He said firmly.

Unfazed, Ellinor remained in her pouting pose and shot back. “Did you read the message I sent you?”

Marcus hesitated for a moment before responding, “Yes, I saw it.”

:

His response seemed to aggravate her further. “Why didn’t you reply?”

“It wasn’t convenient.” Marcus answered.

A hint of anger shone in Ellinor’s eyes as she retorted, “I find it hard to believe you couldn’t find a single moment in

the last few hours to send me a message!”

Marcus remained silent, unable to deny the truth in her words.

Ellinor gritted her teeth. “Adrian, go stand guard at the door for me.”

Adrian, seeming to understand, quickly replied, “Okay, Mommy!”

The little guy then hurried out to keep watch.

Once their son left the room, Ellinor stood up, slowly stepping towards Marcus.

Marcus didn’t move away, only looking at her with a serious expression as he said, “You know this is risky, don’t

you? Sophia could come looking for me at any moment. She could find you here.”

Ellinor scoffed. “So what? She loves you too much to hurt you. If she found out, she’d only want to get rid of me,

right?”

Marcus could tell she was different this time. She was seemingly carrying a heavy ernotional burden.

He asked calmly. “What’s going on? Have you been drinking?”

Ellinor replied, “No, I don’t drink.”

Marcus was puzzled. “Then what’s wrong? Why are you behaving like this?”

Ellinor approached him while looking down at him sternly as she cupped his chin. “Why didn’t you reply to my

message?”

Was this why she had come? Marcus looked at her, his frown deepening. “You were out with another man this

afternoon. I didn’t think it was appropriate to interrupt.”

Ellinor’s brows furrowed. “Who told you I was out with another man?”

A hint of sarcasm tugged at the corners of Marcus’ mouth. “Didn’t your photo clearly show that man with you? Are

you still denying it?”

Ellinor paused, released his chin, and pulled out her phone to check the photo she had taken during dinner. Only

then did she realize that Bartlett’s hand and clothes were indeed in the photo.

She hadn’t thought much of it at the time and hadn’t paid it any attention.

Besides, she wasn’t secretly dating. There was no reason for her to be so cautious.
