Chapter 479: Chapter 479

Ellinor better get a grip and never show up in Theo’s sight again!

“Come out! He’s gone.”

After Theo left, Balfour coldly called out to the bathroom.

A few seconds later, the bathroom door opened and Ellinor carne out, bowing to Balfour, “Mr. Howard, thanks for showing up just in time to get me out of a jam” Balfour glanced at her without responding. He then went to the bedside to check on Baber, who was on an IV He touched the kid’s forehead to see if he had a fever and looked at his face to see if anything was off. Seeing that everything seemed normal, he felt a bit relieved.

Patricia came over, “Baber’s okay He just had a little allergic reaction. You don’t have to investigate the nannies; it’s not their fault.”

“Good, as long as the kid is fine.” Balfour nodded, then turned to Patricia with a serious face, “Patry, this is your first time being a mom, you need to leam more. Kids aren’t easy to raise, once you’ve got em, you’ve gotta take responsibility, Baher is after all…”

Just as Balfour was about to spill the beans about Baber being adopted, Patricia cut him off, I know, I’ve been reading parenting books and will learn to be a good mom! But aren’t you super busy? why are you here? Baber’s fine now, you should get back to the office. Don’t let work pile up!

Balfour couldnt rest easy, so he rushed to the hospital to check on things after wrapping up some work.

Seeing that Patricia and the kid were all good, he felt relieved. ‘Patri, you and Haillie stay here with Baber. I’ll send someone to pick you up later.”

Patricia nodded, “Alright!’

As Balfour was about to leave, Haillie remembered something important and signaled Patricia.

Patricia caught Haillie’s hint and remembered, “Oh right, Balfour, tomorrow is Aunt Bluna’s birthday, have you got her present ready?”

“Yep, all set”

“What about your date? You haven’t picked one yet, have you?”

Balfour looked subtly amused. Seeing Haillie’s expectant face, he knew what she was up to, “I’ve got someone in mind for my date. Patri, you don’t have to worry about me.”

Hearing this, Haillie’s expression quickly shifted from anticipation to disappointment Patricia was also surprised, ‘You ve already picked someone? Who is it?”

Balfour paused for a moment, then said, “Ms. Mendoza,”

“Huh?” Ellinor, standing nearby, was taken aback.

What did this have to do with her?

Then she caught Balfour’s intimidating gaze.

Ellinor was a smart cookie, and even though she didn’t want to, she had to accept it now, “Yes! I’m Mr.

Howard’s date!”

Haillie frowned and glared at Ellinor Patricia was also very surprised. Balfour, you and Ellinor…”

“Alright, you two take good care of Baber Balfour cut Patricia off. He didn’t want to stick around any longer, “Ms. Mendoza, you come with me back to the office.”

Ellinor responded, “Yes, Mr. Howard!”

In the car back to the Howard Group, Ellinor sat quietly in the passenger seat.

In the back seat, Balfour suddenly asked, ‘Ms. Mendoza, are you scared of meeting Theo?
