Chapter 290:


    He was clearly struggling with the idea of eating with Kaiden.


    As soon as Ellie got the call, she stepped out of the lounge.


    Freddy’s assistant approached and inquired, “Miss Gordon, where should I deliver the custom suits Mr. Lynn made for you? May I have your address?”


    What? Custom-made suits?


    All eyes in the studio turned to Ellie.


    Ellie was taken aback for a moment, realizing she was about to be the talk of the town once again.


    Ignoring their curious stares, Ellie calmly gave Freddy’s assistant the address of Moon Manor.


    As Ellie walked away, she could hear the murmurs of the others.


    “It’s incredible that someone could get several of Freddy’s designs all at once.”


    “That’s for Ellie. She’s the one who upied the center seat at Freddy’s recent show.”


    “Was Ellie in the lounge this whole time? So Freddy was defending Ellie when he scolded Litzy and her daughter?”


    “Wow! I’m kind of jealous of Ellie. Even if she’s not a Gordon by blood, who cares? Being Freddy’s benefactor is way cooler.”


    The dinner was agony for Freddy. Every time he looked up, he was met with Kaiden’s stoic face, ruining his appetite.


    Upon returning to Moon Manor, Ellie got a message from Freddy vowing never to dine with Kaiden again, calling it an insult to good food.


    Trying not tough, Ellie cast a curious nce at Kaiden.


    She wondered why she felt sofortable dining with Kaiden. Despite his somewhat cold demeanor, Kaiden was undeniably handsome.


    “What are you staring at?” Kaiden had already caught Ellie’s gaze.

    With a yful smile, Ellie teased, “Freddy doesn’t want to dine with you anymore. What did you do to frighten him?”


    There was a unique tension, something that seemed to exist just between men.


    Kaiden, however, kept this to himself.


    He said, “Your subordinate is not only old, he’s also overly cautious.” Ellie was momentarily at a loss for words.


    She figured it wasn’t so much that Freddy was overly cautious, but more about Kaiden’s problem.


    “Mr. Thorpe, isn’t it a bit harsh for you to criticize my subordinate like that?” Ellie felt the need to stand up for Freddy.


    Kaiden simply replied, “No.”


    Then, something Freddy had mentioned popped into Ellie’s mind.


    She stepped closer to Kaiden, tilted her head with a mischievous smile, and yfully asked, “Kaiden, Freddy mentioned you were jealous. Is that true?”
