    Chapter 612


    Tears instantly welled up in Patricia’s eyes She sat in her wheelchair,tching onto Balfour’s leg and


    began sobbing helplessly


    Balfour was surprised by Patricia’s sudden outburst. He knitted his brows. “Why are you crying? Is your


    foot hurting a lot? Don’t worry, I’ll take you to the hospital”


    Balfour had been busy working in another room upstairs and had no idea what had been happening


    downstairs.


    “No, Balfour, my foot is fine it’s not hurting” Patricia said through her tears.

    “Then what’s wrong? Tell me Balfour leaned down, gently rubbing Patricia’s back, trying to console her.


    Patricia just kept crying and said nothing


    Balfour was at a loss, as Patricia was clearly upset but not exining why He turned to Patricia’s


    friend, Haillie. “Haillie, what’s up with Patricia?”


    Haillie looked shyly at Balfour, then finally spilled the beans, “Balfour, Patricia got bullied it’s all Ellinor’s


    fault. She went too far!”


    Balfour’s brows furrowed even more. “Ellinor? What has she done this time?”


    Haillie continued, “Ellinor tripped Patricia down the stairs on purpose Since Patricia hurt her foot and


    couldn’t perform on stage, I asked Ellinor to fill in for Patricia, but she ended up badmouthing Patricia in


    front of old Mr. Bagley, who then reprimanded Patricia


    And then, somehow, Ellinor got old Mr. Bagley to publicly acknowledge her as his granddaughter!


    Patricia got the cold shoulder from him, and he even said she shouldn’te to the Bagley residence


    anymore. Can you me Patricia for being heartbroken?”


    Balfour was taken aback. What? Old Mr. Bagley acknowledged Ellinor as his granddaughter?


    Old Mr Bagley was always a strict man, how could he ept someone he just met as his


    granddaughter?


    Ellinor was indeed a cunning girl. In such a short time, she managed to worm her way into being old


    Mr. Bagley’s granddaughter!


    What was she really up to today?


    “Where is Ellinor now?”


    Haillie replied. “She’s probably still with old Mr. and Mrs. Bagley. Balfour, Ellinor is a schemer. She’d do


    anything to climb the socialdder. You can’t let her get away with this, or she’ll use the Bagley’s


    influence to bully Patricia even more.”


    Balfour squinted towards the door, “Quinton, bring Ellinor here!”


    In the study of the Bagley family.


    As the man of the hour, old Mr. Bagley was still entertaining guests in the banquet hall.


    In the study, Ellinor was ying Go with old Mrs. Bagley, a mind game that helped keep the olddy’s


    brain active and was good for her health.


    Byran was watching on the sidelines, asionally offering some advice.


    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door


    “Who is it? Byran turned to ask.


    Quinton, recognizing Byran’s voice, replied respectfully, “Mr. Howard, it’s me.”


    Hearing Quinton’s voice, Byran tensed up a bit, “Uh, Quinton, what’s up?”


    Was Balfour sending Quinton to fetch him home for homework?


    Quinton replied, “Is Ms. Mendoza there? Mr. Howard asked me to get her, he needs to see her.”


    Relieved that Balfour wasn’t after him, Byran gestured to Ellinor, “Balfour’s looking for you”


    Ellinor put down her Go piece and gracefully stood up, “Old Mrs. Bagley, let Byran y with you for a


    bit. I’ll step out.”


    Old Mrs Bagley looked uneasy and started to rise upon seeing Ellinor about to leave.


    Ellinor reassured her, ‘Don’t worry, old Mrs Bagley, I won’t be gone long. I’lle back to y Go with


    you”


    Old Mrs. Bagley still looked a bit uneasy but nodded obediently, “Child,e back soon!”


    Ellinor smiled, “Sure, I’ll be back soon.”


    After pacifying old Mrs. Bagley, she turned to leave.


    Byran took Ellinor’s ce, rearranging the Go pieces on the board, “Grandma, Go is boring let’s y


    something else!
