Chapter 89

Author: Full of Luck
Theodore said, "I'm injured, so I brought in a professional driver."

As soon as Beau saw Theodore, he shrank behind Harvey, like a mouse spotting a cat.

The Mount Clockwork race was technically an amateur event, but since it was organized by Capitol's top social circles, everything—from the venue and prizes to the staff—was top-tier.

The wealthy heirs who participated had spent an entire year dumping millions into customizing their high-performance race cars. Naturally, they needed professional drivers to stand a chance at making it into the top three.

For them, winning was all about status.

Of course, they usually sat in the passenger seat to feel somewhat involved, acting as co-pilots.

Elara recognized almost everyone at Mount Clockwork. But despite being married to Harvey for seven years, she had never known that he also took part in off-road racing tournaments.

By now, curiosity over Corona's mystery driver had reached its peak.

Niamh was the first to speak up. "Mr. Snapp,

  • There's No Turning Back   Chapter 555

    Elara ate the late-night snack Theodore had brought, unable to help but marvel, "Your cooking has improved so much."Theodore smiled. "How does it compare to Finnegan's?"Before Elara could answer, Theodore realized what he'd said and corrected himself, "Sorry, I shouldn't compare myself to your brother. We're not really in the same league."He spoke self-deprecatingly but without any real sense of inferiority.She said, "My brother shaped my taste preferences, so it's hard to make that comparison. I can only say that what you're cooking now really suits my palate."Theodore's lips curved upward as he said, "I don't have anywhere to go tonight. You don't mind if I stay here to keep you company, do you?"Elara simply told him, "Suit yourself."After she finished eating, she continued working. When she looked up during her late-night work session, she saw Theodore leaning back on the couch. At some point, he'd put on a face mask and appeared to be asleep.Falling asleep with a fa

    Elara's hand holding the phone began to feel weak and tingly. She took a deep breath and told herself not to fall for Theodore's charm so easily."Maybe by the time you get here, I won't need it anymore."Theodore's message appeared almost instantly. "I'm downstairs at your building."Elara's hand trembled. She instinctively glanced toward the floor-to-ceiling windows, though of course, from her height and angle, she couldn't see Theodore down below.She asked warily, "What are you doing here?"An answer had already formed in her mind. "A booty call delivery!"Guys who came on too strong seemed desperate. And desperate men held no allure or challenge.Theodore sent a photo of the lunch container in his hands. "Brought you a late-night snack. I already had the front desk help send it up to you."Wait, that was it? He was just leaving? He'd only come to drop off a snack?Like someone tossing a stone into still water, the thought that Theodore had handed the food to the front des

    Soon after, another message from Theodore appeared. "Yes, ma'am!"Elara's lips twitched slightly. She could almost hear Theodore saying those words in her ear.Then Theodore sent another message. "Can I bring you dinner again next time?"His question was cautious."Your cooking is really good," Elara praised him.She asked, "Would you mind handling my dinners from now on?""Yes, ma'am!"Theodore sent the same response again. Elara typed back. "Do you enjoy role-playing, Mr. Snapp? You sound like a butler."Theodore's reply popped up. "Then let me be your butler."Elara's fingertips moved rapidly across her phone screen. "Butlers aren't supposed to have improper thoughts about their masters."She stared at the conversation between herself and Theodore on her phone screen. It felt like they were flirting.Elara had a complex feeling she couldn't quite describe. She sensed herself being unconsciously drawn in, perhaps through Theodore's deliberate guidance.But his approach wa

    Sarah laughed. "Ms. Jones, you have such a great relationship with your brother! You're so lucky!"Elara smiled back at Sarah, suddenly feeling a bit guilty for using Finnegan as a cover story."My brother and I have always been close. He loves to cook, and he's very caring."Sarah was amazed. "Wow! I'm so jealous that Ms. Jones has such a wonderful brother! I'll leave you to enjoy your dinner then. Take your time."After Sarah left, Elara finally relaxed. She reopened the lunch box and looked at all the beautifully arranged food inside, all of which happened to be things she loved to eat.As she ate, her phone was propped up on a stand in front of her, showing the live feed from her home security system. Elara noticed that several dishes on the dining table at home were identical to what was in her lunch box.Theodore and Merida ate quickly. Although Elara always reminded Merida to eat slowly and sometimes even made her count ten chews before swallowing, Theodore couldn't be as

    Elara wasn't unfamiliar with men cooking. She'd been watching Finnegan at the stove since she was little. But she'd never taken the time to really appreciate Finnegan's every move while cooking.How could someone look so elegant even while cooking? When she was in the kitchen, even making a simple salad didn't feel particularly graceful to watch.Theodore was just naturally elegant in everything he did. He was elegant sitting in her passenger seat as her navigator, and when he kissed her, his expression was so refined she couldn't look away.His posture was perfectly straight. The security camera in the living room was positioned just right to capture the kitchen doorway, taking in the man's long legs and his perfectly proportioned frame.Then Merida appeared on screen, coming to Theodore's side. He handed her the dish he'd just finished cooking. Since this meal was just for him and Merida, the portions were smaller, but he'd used larger plates for presentation.After Merida helpe

    Niamh's lips curled up in a smile, and her dark eyes glittered with malice. The smile spread across her face as she silently counted down the seconds in her head.After half a minute, Harvey's voice finally came through. "I'll have Cyrus contact some bridal designers in Emaly and have them send their latest dresses to the Jones residence.""Harvey, thank you. You're always so nice to me…" Before Niamh could finish speaking, Harvey ended the call.Niamh let out a breath. She gripped her phone tighter, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction."Nini, where are you going?" Seeing Niamh suddenly turn and head for the exit, Daphne called out to her.Niamh stopped and looked down at Daphne with disdain. "These cheap dresses aren't good enough for me. Take your time picking if you like them. Dad will pay for it anyway."With that, Niamh left. The staff members surrounding Daphne exchanged bewildered glances."What the hell's wrong with her?" The staff exchanged knowing glances."We're one
