Chapter 1052: Chapter 1052

Veronica couldn’t help but blush every time someone mentioned her crush, “I admit that I’m grateful for your hooking me up with Moran, but that’s not the main thing. The thing is, I don’t hate you anymore, and once 1, Veronica, accept you, it’s hard to change. Just don’t betray my brother”

Ellinor grinned, shifted a bit, and laid back leisurely. “Don’t worry, I won’t betray your brother. Even if I ever have second thoughts, I’d break up with your brother first, then find someone else.”

Veronica wasn’t satisfied, “You can’t break up with my brother!”

Ellinor, feeling weary, murmured, “Alright! If you’re not busy, go boil some water, my feet are killing me.”

Veronica stood with her hands on her hips, frowning. There was a look of dissatisfaction on her face as she wondered if Ellinor really just asked her to heat water for her.

But considering that she was carrying her brother’s child, she should reluctantly take care of her for her brother’s sake.

Veronica went out with the kettle, opened the door, and saw a man standing at the entrance, about to knock on the door.

“Byran? What are you doing here?” Veronica watched him warily; her attitude toward the Howard family naturally wouldn’t be too good.

Byran moved his knocking hand to scratch his head awkwardly, “Is Ellinor… okay?”

Veronica jerked her chin up dismissively, “As long as you Howards don’t mess with her, my sister–in–

law will be just fine!”

Byran looked ashamed, “I came to apologize for my sister. I want to see Ellinor and apologize to her face–to–face.”

Veronica said coldly, “She’s resting now; she probably doesn’t want to see any of you Howards.”

Byran, who usually acted like a little tyrant in front of others, now shamefully lowered his head, “But…”

“Come in.”

Ellinor’s languid voice came from inside the room.

Reluctantly, Veronica moved aside to let Byran in.

Veronica stood at the door with the kettle, keeping an eye on things. She wasn’t okay with leaving Ellinor alone with a Howard, who knew what he was up 1. to.

Veronica only had a good impression of the Howards because of Patricia. Now that Patricia’s true colors were revealed, she had zero good feelings towards the Howard family.

Byran entered the room with a fruit basket he had just bought and put it on the table, not knowing how to start.

“Ellinor, I didn’t know what you like, so I just bought some fruit.”

Ellinor, who had just lain down, moved a little and sat up when she heard someone was visiting. She leaned her tired body against the head of the bed and said to Byran, “You just got out of the hospital;

you didn’t have to come see me.”

Byran looked at Ellinor with complicated eyes, “I think my mom and sister owe you an apology, so I came to apologize on their behalf…”

Ellinor gave a faint smile, “So you think you can apologize for them and I should forgive them?”

Byran was taken aback and quickly shook his head, “No… you don’t have to forgive them; I’m not even trying to force you to forgive them. I just want to express how sorry I am because I wasn’t very nice to you before…”

Ellinor responded lightly, “Hmm, I won’t forgive them, but I won’t be mad at you because of it. I’ll take the fruit, and I accept your goodwill; now go home and do your homework!”

Byran frowned, “I’ve done all my homework for today.”

“That’s great, so you can go have fun now!”
