âBut I canât have kids, so I want to adopt one because I really want to be a momâ
Balfour felt a twinge of heartache to see Patricia in pain because of her infertility How could he blame her?
He just sighed, put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her gently, âYeah, I know Letâs bring the kid home tomorrow Itâs not good for them to always be out there, and you running around all the time isnât good for your health either â
Patricia looked up in surprise, âReally? Will Mom and Dad get mad at me? Iâm scared.â
Balfour grabbed a tissue and wiped the tears from her eyes, âDonât worry, Mom and Dad know about your situation. Theyâll understand. They just need some time to accept it But you really acted rashly this time, making such a big decision on your own.
Anyway, letâs bring the kid home first. Donât worry about the rest, leave it to me. Iâll talk to Mom and Dadâ
Patricia acted all sweet and grateful. âBalfour, I knew you were the best! No matter what happens, youâll always be on my side, right?â
âOf courseâ Balfour replied without hesitation.
Patricia laughed, âBalfour, did you know? The kid has been growing so fast recently! Iâm going to buy him some new clothes later, so heâll look cute when we bring him home Mom and Dad will surely love him when they see him!â
Patricia couldnât stop talking about the child and shared all sorts of stories with Balfour.
But inside, she was really stressed out A few days ago, she hinted through a friend in the media that she and Theo were about to get engaged, hoping to put some pressure on Theo and their parents.
Of course, she also wanted to show Ellinor, who was hiding somewhere, that she no longer had a chance.
However, it didnât work. Theo just had all the news taken down and cleaned up.
From the looks of it, Balfourâs talk with Theo didnât go well.
Did Theo really not want to marry her?
Just because Ellinor showed up. Theo no longer cared about her as much as before.
Now, what worried her most was that Ellinor had shown up again!
Why did she come back after leaving?
And this time, Ellinor even applied for a secretary position at Balfourâs.
Regardless of Ellinorâs intentions, once she was in the Howard Group, she was within Patriciaâs control.
Whatever Ellinor encountered at the Howard Group, she asked for it!
A hint of malice flashed in Patriciaâs seemingly innocent eyes.
The next day, in the morning Ellinor arrived to start her job at the Howard Group.
