Chapter 595: Chapter 595

Ellinor was all set to say no But then Balfour cul in, stem and impatient “Enough all of you! Since Patri can’t perform, there’s no point in finding a replacement! Grandpa won’t blame anyone, I’ll explain the situation to him.”

Hearing this. Ellinor was quite pleased Patricia, on the other hand, insisted through her tears ‘Balfour, apart from this performance, I don’t have any other gift for Grandpa If I don’t give him anything, even if he doesn’t blame me this time, he’ll think less of me in the future So I can’t do that.”

Balfour scrunched up his eyebrows, looking down at his stubborn sister in his arms Patri, listen to me, your health is what’s most important! You don’t have to perform for Grandpa today there’s plenty of time in the future to sing for him!”

Patricia fired back. “No! Today is Grandpa’s birthday, any other day won’t do! Balfour, I’ve already told Grandpa I have a special gift, I can’t go back on my word! And Theo is waiting for me to go on stage. I don’t want to let him or Grandpa down.”

Balfour darkened. “Patri!”

Haillie stepped up to them, defending her best friend. “Balfour, see, Patricia is stubborn about performing. If you don’t find someone to take her place, she won’t cooperate with the check–up for her foot injury”

Only then did Balfour consider Haillie’s suggestion Patricia was gentle but incredibly stubborn. She had a strong will, as shown when she decided to marry Theo from a young age.

Haillie wasn’t wrong either. Under these circumstances, even if they forced Patricia to go to the hospital, she wouldn’t cooperate with the treatment. It would only make things more troublesome Considering this, out of concern for Patricia’s foot, Balfour looked up at Ellinor and commanded her.

“Ellinor, go get ready, you’re going on stage for Patricia!*

Ellinor didn’t have the same absolute attitude toward her boss as she did with Haillie and Patricia. “Mr.

Howard, aren’t you scared I’ll ruin the gift your sister worked so hard on?

Balfour replied coldly. “To old Mr. Bagley, it doesn’t matter if you sing well or not, it’s the thought that counts. Just go up there, sing a few lines, and express Patricia’s feelings Haillie chimed in, “Ellinor, if you don’t go on stage for Patricia, she won’t get treated. If something goes wrong with her foot because she didn’t get timely treatment, can you take responsibility?”

“Are you guys really sure you want me to go on stage for Ms. Howard?”

Patricia looked at Ellinor with pleading eyes. “Ellinor, I’m injured now, I can’t perform. If you could go on stage for me, I’d be really grateful. Your voice is so beautiful, I’m sure you’ll sing and perform wonderfully. I believe in you.”

Ellinor glanced at Patricia, then at her boss, Balfour. She considered the idea and let out a resigned sigh. “Fine! Since Mr. Howard is asking, I guess I have to do as the boss says. But if my performance isn’t good, don’t blame me.”

“We won’t! Thank you, Ellinor, for helping me!” Patricia gratefully said, then turned to Haillie. “Haillie, could you help me take Ellinor to get her makeup and costume on? We’re running out of time!”

At this, Haillie gave a smug smile and nodded. “Sure, no problem. I’ll take her right away!”
