The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 1515
Nevertheless, her mind wasn't at ease to think about her children’s matters right
now! She shook her head dismissively at Ida. “Nothing much. He might just be a
little timid.”
Timid?
Adrian was never shy, even when he was just a baby. When did he become so
bashful?
Ida looked at “Adrian’ with even more confusion. Something about the kid just
didn't feel right.
Ellinor arched an eyebrow at her. “What brings you here all of a sudden? You
didn’t even give me a heads-up”
Ida replied somewhat innocently. “Didn't I mention yesterday that I wanted to
come over and see the kids? But I got held up at the last minute and couldn't
make it. Boss, I did call you before I came over today, but you didn’t pick up, so I
just came over myself.”
Only then did Ellinor check her phone. Sure enough, Ida had called her twice, but
she hadn't heard it.
Maybe she was just too distracted today.
“I took the kids to Joyful Kids Park, so I didn’t hear the phone ring. Anyway, can
you watch the kids for me? I'm gonna go upstairs and change, then I'll come
down to join you guys.”
Ida nodded and watched as Ellinor headed upstairs.
At this moment, Veronica came over and whispered to Ida. “Don’t you think
there's something off about her today? She seems unusually down.”
Ida glanced at Veronica! “Maybe it's all the stress from taking over your family’s
company. She's probably just exhausted.”
Veronica shook her head. “No, that's not it! Just a couple of days ago, she was
all fired up about taking over the company. She was full of energy at work, too. I
was at the office today, and she was just as lively as ever; she even held two big
meetings. But in the afternoon, she left early because of some matters, and then
she just changed.”
Ida furrowed her brows alertly. “Left early because of something? Do you know
what it was?”
Veronica shrugged. “I don’t know. She hardly ever confides in me. Ever since my
brother disappeared, she’s been different. She’s not like the tough lady who used
to dunk my head in the toilet bowl when she was pissed off. It seems like she’s
always unhappy.”
Belinda came over and gave Veronica a light slap on the head. “Duh! If your man
suddenly disappeared without a trace, would you be happy? Ellinor really cares
for my uncle. I feel sorry for her. She's like a snake shedding its skin, all for the
sake of my uncle.”
Veronica clutched her head where Belinda had hit her. “I know, I'm just worried
about her. Honestly, my brother has been missing for years, and we've all given
up hope. I just wish she would let go a little too. Otherwise, I'm afraid she'll fall
into depression.”

Yes, that's exactly what Ellinor’s state
was like now. She was always in a
daze, and her mood was constantly,
fluctuating, often staring into space
while lost in her thoughts. Except
when she was busy at work. There,
she seemed to be forcing a smile,
which was really heartbreaking to

Ida noticed that Layla, the child in her arms, looked upset upon hearing their
conversation. She furrowed her brows and quickly got the two girls to shut up.
“Okay, that's enough. Don’t discuss these things in front of the kids. It'll upset
them if they hear it.”
