Chapter 594


    Haille stared at Ellinor, “Don’t you get it? I need you to step in for Patricia and finish the performance”


    Ellinor frowned ‘Me, rece her on stage? What’s the point?”


    Haillie confidently replied, “There’s a point, alright! We all have to p on makeup for the stage


    anyway, and with all that gunk on your face, who can tell who are you? So you Just go on stage, finish


    Patricia’s bit, and we can pretend it was Patricia performing for the old man, no one will know!


    Upon hearing Haillie’s suggestion, Patricia thought for a moment, quickly realizing her intentions.


    This was just Haillie’s sneaky way of setting Ellinor up for an epic fail.


    There was no way someone like Ellinor, with her background, could pull this off.


    This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Her upbringing and life circumstances had never given her a chance to learn how to perform. Once on


    stage, she’d definitely botch it, and old Mr. Bagley just couldn’t stand people butchering his beloved


    tunes.


    Patricia had put a lot of effort into this birthday gift for today, practicing for a long time just to get on old


    Mr. Bagley’s good side.


    But, judging from old Mr. Bagley’s attitude towards her today, no matter how well she could sing, she


    wouldn’t win his approval. If she didn’t meet his standards, she’ll only earn his disdain


    So Patricia had no intention of going on stage in the first ce, instead, she wanted to use this


    opportunity to pin the me on Ellinor for her absence, making Balfour mad and kicking Ellinor out on


    the spot.


    Patricia noticed that ever since old Mrs. Bagley mistook Ellinor for her daughter, old Mr. Bagley had


    been entertaining the idea of treating Ellinor like a granddaughter


    If Ellinor took Haillie’s advice, stepped in for Patricia, and butchered old Mr. Bagley’s cherished songs,


    he’d definitely be pissed andpletely abandon the idea of treating Ellinor like a granddaughter.


    With this in mind, a sinister glint shed in Patricia’s eyes If she couldn’t win old Mr. Bagley’s approval,


    then this bitch Ellinor sure as hell wouldn’t either!


    She didn’t reject Haillie’s suggestion and just pretended to be worried, “Haillie, won’t this be too hard on


    Ellinor?”


    Haillie just shrugged, “What’s so hard about it? It’s just singing a song Patricia, your foot is all messed


    up; there’s no way you can perform, let Ellinor do it”


    Patricia, lying in Balfour’s arms, looked helplessly at Ellinor, “So, Ellinor, could you help me?”


    “No”


    Ellinor decisively rejected Patricia’s request, then turned to Haillie, “If all you need is someone to stand


    in for Patricia and deliver the birthday gift to the old man, then Haillie, why don’t you go on stage


    yourself and help your dear friend?”


    Haillie’s face turned ugly, and she blinked nervously, “I never learned, I can’t do it!”


    Ellinor found this amusing, “Haillie, you think just because you can’t do something, why should I?”


    Haillie started arguing. “Even if you can’t, you’d still do better than me. I’m a dancer, so I can’t sing for


    peanuts. I need to stay off stage to take care of Patricia; I can’t take her ce!
