    Chapter 497


    Aunt Bluna’s beef with Patricia wasnt fresh news.


    Patricia had been a spineless jellyfish since day one. She bent over backward for men, especially when


    Mr. nchet was around, she wouldpletely lose herself. Aunt Bluna had zero respect for girls who


    couldn’t live without a man, if Patricia weren’t rted, she wouldn’t give her the time of day


    Haillie scowled, looking at Ellinor with distaste, “Is Ms. Mendoza really prettier than Patricia” I don’t see


    it!


    Aunt Bluna turned her gaze to Ellinor, her eyes lighting up with admiration. ‘Ms. Mendoza’s a different


    breed. She might be petite and cute, but there’s a certain toughness in her eyes She oozes confidence,


    but most importantly, she’s got this aloof aura when ites to men and power. That’s the vibe we’ve


    been chasing at Fashion Pyramid!” Haillie bit her lip in displeasure, thinking Ellinor was just putting on


    an act. Even a powerhouse like Aunt Bluna was taken in


    By now, Patricia’s face was as red as a tomato, and getting called out by Aunt Bluna in front of


    everyone was mortifying


    Aunt Bluna, the fashion oddball who barely ever socialized with her own family, was now fawning over


    Ellinor and even making a sincere invitation, Patricia was seething with jealousy.


    Even Haillie’s defense didn’t make Aunt Bluna budge

    Patricia wanted to turn to Balfour for help, hoping he’d put in a good word for her, but just as she was


    caught in a dilemma, something caught her eye.


    She saw a familiar figure standing behind the crowd. It was the man she’d been longing for


    Patricia lit up, “Theo, when did you get here?”


    Theo stood at the back of the crowd, and his towering height and overwhelming presence were


    impossible to ignore.


    Theo


    Theo!


    Ellinor’s heart skipped a beat and her gaze quickly shifted.


    There Theo was, standing still like a stone statue, emanating a chilling aura.


    What was he doing here?


    Weren’t the nchet family supposed to skip the Howard family’s party?


    Ellinor was panic-stricken; her fists clenched tightly, and her mind was a mess.


    In the end, she came face to face with Theo


    Patricia pushed through the crowd towards the man she’d been pining for. “Theo, didn’t you have a


    business trip yesterday? You came back so quickly?
