Byran's disgruntled voice came from the other end of the phone, âHello? Who's this?"
âIt's me, Ellinor, Mr Howard"
Hearing Ellinorâ voice, Byranâs tone softened a bit, âEllinor; are you off work yet?â
âAlmost, there's less than ten minutesâ
âAlright, I'm coming to pick you up now Meet me at the alley near the office. And be sure to dodge Balf
Ellinor was somewhat puzzled, âWe're not doing anything shady, why should we avoid Mr. Howard?"
Byran stuttered a bit, âWell Balfour's not a fan of me hanging out with you, so

Ellinor let out a sarcastic laugh, âOh, so that's the reason!â
Byran seemed to feel awkward and added âDon't take it to heart; Balfour has the wrong opinion about
Ellinor just smiled and didn't say anything, âAlright, call me when you're near the office
âSure!â
Byran arrived very quickly in just fifteen minutes.

Ellinor was in her work clothes and had just removed her blazer, leaving a simple white shirt. It was sin

Ellinor raised an eyebrow. âWhy?â
Byran blurted out, âBecause if you marry Balfour, you won't be a threat to my sister's happiness anymo
Ellinor was taken aback.
So it was all for his sister
Byran continued,
âBut mainly, you're not like those flashy and vulgar women that are a dime a dozen. I find you quite in
digger, that would really bug me.
Ellinor could only laugh and cry at his words. She had common topics with him? If that were the case, v

The car soon arrived at the Bagley familyâs house.
Byran looked out the window and his eyes lit up. âIt's Theo's car, he came early too!â
