Theo popped up behind her out of nowhere, giving her the cold shoulder.
Ellinor felt a chill run down her spine and instinctively hung up her call.
"... No biggie, just chatting with a friend!"
She replied nonchalantly and slipped her phone into her pocket.
"Hand over your phone." Theo extended his hand.
Ellinor was taken aback and frowned with annoyance. The guy was a bit off, but she didn’t feel like arguing. After a moment’s hesitation, she gave him her phone.
"Unlock it." Theo said, stone-faced.
"That's my private business! I have every right to keep it to myself!" Ellinor refused.
Theo’s gaze turned cunning. "Got something to hide?"
"I have nothing to hide!" Ellinor retorted confidently.
"If there’s nothing to hide, then what's the password?" Theo threatened, waving her phone in the air.
What's with this guy? Why was he snooping around other people's phones out of the blue?
Did he really think he could just invade people's privacy like that?
Ellinor was fed up with his attitude, glaring at him, "I'm not telling you!"
"Ellinor, I'll ask you again. What's the password?" Theo demanded harshly.
Ellinor was forced to look up at him, still not giving in, even defiantly saying, "Take a wild guess! If you get it right, I'll tell you!"
Theo was fuming!
Just then, her phone rang. It was Chase calling back...
Startled, Ellinor immediately tried to grab it!
But Theo raised the phone out of her reach.
"Give me back my phone!" Ellinor frowned.
