Patriciaâs eyes were misty, holding back tears. Iâm sorry, I know I shouldnât cry, but Iâm really worried about my Byranâ¦â
Supporting the trembling Patricia, Byran reassured her, âDonât worry about me, Iâm fine! I can handle the consequences myself, no matter how Theo plans to punish me today, Iâll accept it! You should go home with Quinton first!â
âByranâ¦â Patricia choked up.
âMs. Howard, I truly admire your charismaâ Ellinor chuckled.
Byran looked at Ellinor, puzzled. Why was she laughing?
Patricia, tearful and confused, asked Ellinor, âWhat do you mean, Ellinor? You admire me?â
âYes, I really admire you! Haillie cleverly plotted against me for your sake, but ended up getting herself thrown in jail. Byran standered me and spread false information online for you, and ended up being punished here when he was found out. Yet youâre innocent and unaware of it all. The fact that those around you are willing to sacrifice so much for you, you must have some senous charismaâ
This was an overtly positive statement Patricia felt a pang Ellinor was really smart!
At first glance, Ellinor was just a pretty face, a bit of a ditz, seemingly harmless.
Only now did she know that she was wrong at the beginning. Ellinor was no simple person.
Patricia looked at Ellinor with innocent eyes: âYou might have misunderstood me, I really didnât know about those thingsâ¦â
Ellinor didnât bother to respond, she turned and walked towards the dining table before Patricia could finish her sentence. Seeing only Theoâs breakfast on the table, she frowned and asked, âWhereâs my breakfast?â
âNow youâre hungry?â Theo looked at her, âI called you to get up earlier, didnât you say you werenât hungry?â
âI was planning to sleep in, but you guys were making so much noise downstairs, so I had to get up, eat breakfast and go back to sleep As she was speaking, Collin walked up and respectfully pulled out a chair next to Theoâ¦
Ellinor sat down.
Theo glanced at Ellinor, his brow furrowed, âYou said you werenât eating just now, the kitchen didnât prepare anything for you, youâll have to wait.â
Ellinor pouted, âAlright then!â
She had to wait for the kitchen to prepare her breakfast.
When she first woke up, she wasnât hungry, but as soon as she got up, she felt an emptiness in her stomach that was uncomfortable, so she reached for the milk next to Theo, ready to take a sip to fill her stomachâ¦
But Theo grabbed her hand and unceremoniously took the cup of milk away.
âWhy Canât I even have a sip?â Ellinor was obviously unhappy.
This gentleman who claimed to like her yesterday was now so greedily protecting his food! What kind of liking was this!
Seeing the frown on her face, Theo knew she was thinking negatively again. He looked at her seriously, âYou canât drink milk on an empty stomach, what if you get a stomachache?â
âMr. Blanchet, when did you become such a nag?â
âIsnât it for your own good?â
