    Chapter 116


    The rich girls paused, turning their heads with slightly subdued arrogance.


    ‘It’s Mr. Howard!”


    “Mr. Howard is here!”


    Even Ellinor turned to look


    The Mr. Howard they were referring to was none other than Byran Howard, who had previously teamed


    up with Veronica to expose her at the gallery


    Byran was tall and slim and elegantly dressed in a white tailcoat, looking like a fine young man of noble


    birth


    He walked over, frowning in annoyance, “What’s all the noise about? You guys are too loud!


    One of the rich girls pointed at Ellinor, “Mr. Howard, we didn’t mean anything by it! There’s just a poorly


    dressed intruder here. We thought we should ask her to leave


    “Yeah, how can we let such a person into your family’s Pearl Moon? It’s too ssy for her!”


    “Mr. Howard, you’re just in time. Call the security to kick her out!”


    Byran just lifted his chin and looked at them with disdain, Who told you that if you’re not dressed well,


    you can’te into Pearl Moon? Everyone has the freedom to dress as they like Why are you


    meddling so much?”


    The rich girls were taken aback. They thought they would be praised by Mr. Howard for defending Pearl


    Moon’s honor, but instead, they were reprimanded


    “But she really sneaked in…


    “Yeah! She doesn’t even have an invitation!”


    Byran dismissed this, “If she got in, that means she had the right to. Do you think Pearl Moon security


    is just here for show and let anyone in?”


    “Uh. sorry, we overthought it”


    “Yes, we have no right to interfere with Pearl Moon’s affairs…”


    “Mr. Howard, we’re sorry we bothered you”


    With nothing left to say, the rich girls walked away in shame.


    Byran snorted coldly, then turned to the girl who had been bullied, “You’re fine now! Don’t mind them.


    They’re just shallow”


    Ellinor nodded, “Thanks.”


    “It’s nothing” Byran said distractedly, then turned to leave.

    Suddenly, he felt something off. Why did the girl’s voice sound familiar?


    He stopped, looked back, and recognized her, “Ellinor? Is that you?”


    Ellinor smiled, “Hey!”


    Byran immediately frowned, “Why are you dressed like this?”


    Ellinor replied, “I wear what I want. I have the freedom to dress, don’t I? You said so.”


    Byran scoffed, “If I knew it was you, I would have let them kick you out!”


    Ellinorughed, finding him quite amusing


    Just now he helped a stranger out of trouble, not for a pick–up or to unt his status, but simply out of


    kindness.


    But the moment he realized it was her, his demeanor changed.


    Why did Byran target her? Simply because Theo had a thing for his sister, and he saw her as a threat


    to his sister and wanted to help solve the problem.


    All in all, the young man wasn’t too bad.


    Byran asked impatiently. “Did youe with Theo?”


    The moment Ellinor heard Theo’s name, she felt annoyed and furrowed her brow, “He’s here too?”


    Byran was puzzled, “If you didn’te with Theo, how did you get in?”
