Hearing Balfourâs order, the servants of the Howard family, who were originally going to rush up to stop her, stopped and retreated.
Balfour sneered sarcastically, âI really want to see whether a woman who pursues wealth and power by any means, has the courage to actually die.â
Seeing no one coming to stop her, Xenia could only slow down, gently hit the pillar, and then pretend to faint.
Seeing that, Balfour signaled Quinton to check.
After checking Xeniaâs breath, Quinton replied to Balfour, âThe lady should be okay; she just fainted.â

A look of disgust flashed in Balfourâs eyes, âAlright, have her carried back to her room; donât embarrass us here!â
Several servants stepped forward to carry away the pretendâfainted Xenia.
Balfour said to the remaining servants, âDonât worry, sheâll be fine. From now on, no matter how she makes a scene here, just ignore her until she calms down.â
The servants responded in unison, âYes, Mr. Howard!â
Then, Balfour turned his gaze to Ellinor next to him, âEllinor, you werenât scared just now, were you?â
Ellinor shrugged, âNo. Iâm used to her drama.â
Balfour gave a helpless smile, âThen just ignore her; letâs go back and continue our breakfast!â
Ellinor waved her hand, âIâve lost my appetite; you can go eat. Iâm going back to the room with Mr.
Blanchet!â
Although Balfour wanted to chat with his sister for a while, since she said so, he couldnât refute anything and nodded gently, âOkay, you guys go!â
Ellinor turned to Theo and said, âLetâs go, Mr. Blanchet!â
Theo, holding Baber, followed Ellinor back to the room.
Not long after returning to the room, Baber fell asleep. Perhaps knowing that he would not be left behind again, he slept particularly soundly.
Theo, who had flown back overnight, was also very tired and rested next to Baber for a while.
Ellinor looked at the two sleeping people on the bed, her eyes unconsciously showing tenderness.
Although she was still a little dissatisfied with Theo, she had to admit her concern for him. She went over and covered both him and Baber with a blanket.
