Chapter 814:
Clearly, he had overestimated his own capabilities.
Noticing that they were approaching the city center, Elyse inquired, “Is your plan to eat first or do something
else?”
Theo snapped out of his thoughts and quickly replied, “Are you hungry? If so, I'll take you somewhere to eat.”
Elyse hesitated briefly, then held her stomach and replied, “Let’s eat first.”
Hearing this, Theo exhaled in relief, a smile spreading across his face as he instructed the driver, “Take us to the
restaurant | reserved.”

“Sure,” the driver replied. Through the rearview mirror, the driver stole a glance at Theo.
Why did it seem like Theo had lost sof his sharpness? So it was true that love can make a wise person turn
into a fool...
Ten minutes later, Elyse and Theo stepped out of the car. After a quick glance at the restaurant, she said, “You
really went out of your way to find such an adorable place.”
Theo caught the undertone in her voice and replied with a bit of embarrassment, “I know you like charming
things, so | thought you might enjoy this spot.”
The restaurant was adorned with plush toys, creating a cute but somewhat childlike ambiance that attracted
many young women to take pictures and dine.
Elyse did appreciate it. In fact, she liked it so much that she would pause just to admire the place, even if she
wasn't hungry. She could see herself always stopping here for a cup of coffee if she lived here.
Unexpectedly, Elyse was reminded of past memories. Smiling mockingly, she remarked, “You never used to bring
to go to such places—just not with me.”
Theo felt a pang of panic when she said this. He desperately wanted to win back her favor but dreaded the
possibility of revisiting old wounds.
They were simply too painful.
He couldn’t fathom why he had treated the woman who loved him so poorly. It made him want to punch himself
in the face.

Leaning closer, Theo softly pleaded, “I was wrong, Elyse. Please don’t be upset. Trust me, I'll do all | can to make
it up to you from now on.”
Hearing this, Elyse glanced at Theo. His cautious approach didn’t anger her; instead, she felt a hint of pity.
However, she chose to remain silent, unwilling to dredge up the past, and quickly ascended the steps.
Theo quietly exhaled in relief, then rushed to follow her, holding the glass door open.
Elyse looked at Theo without speaking and walked straight inside.
As they walked in, a waiter approached to guide them. Once they were seated at the restaurant’s prspot,
Elyse looked up at the clear glass ceiling, which framed the falling snow outside.
Theo took the initiative to break the silence, asking, “Do you like the view here?”
