Chapter 903

Balfour picked up his utensils but didn’t start eating. Instead, his gaze remained fixed on Ellinor, his

eyes still filled with warmth.

Seeing this made Patricia feel like she had a knot in her stomach. Still, she maintained a polite smile

while pushing a dish towards Ellinor. “Ellinor, why don't you give this a try?”

Ellinor thanked her but didn't eat the dish Patricia had offered.

With no response from Ellinor, Patricia felt awkward standing there. She felt like a servant, yet she

couldn't show her dissatisfaction. She pulled out a chair and sat next to her brother.

When she arrived, the conversation between her brother and Ellinor halted. Patricia grew more

suspicious of some secret between Balfour

and Ellinor.

She pulled out her phone to check the photo she'd just sent to Theo. It had been successfully sent,

but he hadn't responded yet.

After thinking for a bit, Patricia sent another message to Theo. “Mr. Blanchet, I know I'm not in a

position to bother you, but I thought I should give you a heads-up after seeing this situation.

Ellinor doesn't seem to know how to act around men. She's already your wife; she should avoid

being overly close with my brother in public. I don't think it's very appropriate.”

After a while, Theo responded, “Where is this happening?”,

Feeling like her plan might be working, Patricia quickly replied, “Ellinor is currently at my brother's

company, having lunch with him. Mr. Blanchet, didn't Ellinor tell you she was coming to my

brother's company?”

Theo didn't respond again.

When Ellinor was full, Quinton brought her an ice cream. He had been waiting in line for a long

time.

“Ms. Mendoza, your ice cream.”

Ellinor was in the mood for dessert. She stood up to take the ice cream. “Thanks, bro, you're a

lifesaver.”

Balfour felt a pang in his heart after hearing Ellinor address Quinton as “bro.’ He could only be called

by his name, while Quinton got to be her “bro

Quinton felt a chill run down his spine, sensing his boss's disapproval. But he had no idea what he

had done wrong.

Quinton handed Ellinor the change from the ice cream. “Ms. Mendoza, this is the change from the

ice cream.”

Ellinor waved him off. “No need; this can cover the meal! I'm full now, and I'm about to head off.

Bye!"

With that, Ellinor headed towards the exit.

“Ellinor, wait up; I'll go with you.”

Patricia followed Ellinor towards the elevator.

Quinton watched the two ladies leave, then heard Balfour ask in a displeased tone, “Why did you

take her money?”

Quinton turned to Balfour, answering helplessly, “Mr. Howard, Ms. Mendoza insisted on paying. If I

didn't take it, she wouldn't have come up.”
