Chapter 770


    Ellinor yawned in exhaustion, rolling her eyes as she said, “You said it yourself, the kid is adopted, not


    his by blood.


    And from what I know, you were the one who begged Mr. nchet to go with you to adopt the kid. You


    even said that all he had to do was help you bring the kid home and nothing else.


    So whoever suggested it is responsible for it! Mr. nchet is still willing to help you take care of the kid


    out of kindness. But If he doesn’t want to, you can’t me him.


    Miss. Howard, if you take Mr. nchet’s kindness as something that should be expected, then you’re


    the one at fault here.”


    Unable to counter Ellinor, Patricia put on a pitiful face with tears welling up in her eyes.

    Ellinor, I just wanted Theo to go see our sick kid. Why are you being so hard on me and making me out


    to be the bad guy?”


    Ellinor chuckled. She stepped forward and lifted Patricia’s forlorn face, gripping her chin tightly.


    “Am I being harsh? If you consider me exining facts as being harsh, then let me tell you something


    harshly. From today on, if you pester Mr. nchet without reason, I won’t hesitate to take action!”


    Patricia’s chin was gripped by Ellinor’s cold fingers; she felt the strong warning and instinctively


    recoiled, crying, “Ellinor, how can you say that about me? I’m not a homewrecker.”


    Holding her chin, Ellinor lifted Patricia’s face a little higher, “Whether you’re a homewrecker or not isn’t


    up to you! I, as the legitimate wife, will be the judge of that. If your actions have a negative impact on


    our marriage, I won’t hesitate to take action!”


    With that, she let go of Patricia’s chin in disgust and pushed her face away.


    Patricia’s head jerked to the side, and when she turned it back, her face was wet with tears.


    She stopped engaging Ellinor and looked pitifully at Theo standing behind her. She choked up as she


    said, “Theo, Ellinor probably really dislikes me. I think I should return this bracelet to you; I won’t cause


    you trouble anymore, and I don’t want my presence to make Ellinor think badly of you.”


    As she said this, she pulled out the bracelet again.


    Before Patricia could hand it to Theo, Ellinor snatched it, examining it in her hand.


    “Are you sure Mr. nchet gave you this bracelet?”


    Her attempt to gain sympathy from Theo was disrupted, making Patricia frown slightly. She was forced


    to engage Ellinor again, “Yes, of course, it’s a token he had his people give me when we first met. You


    didn’t know Theo back then, so it’s no surprise you didn’t know.”


    As she exined, she also unted that she knew Theo longer.


    However, Ellinor couldn’t care less who knew him first.


    What was the big deal about knowing him first? If they were meant to be, they would’ve been married


    by now. But clearly, they were not.


    From Patricia’s own ount, Ellinor figured out that the bracelet wasn’t directly given to her by Theo.


    After carefully observing the bracelet, Ellinor handed it back to Patricia, “Since it’s from him, you should


    keep it safe. Don’t try to return it; it’d just make people think Mr. nchet is ungrateful.”


    Patricia clenched her fists in frustration. She did not take the bracelet and kept up her act of being


    innocent and pitiful, “Ellinor, didn’t you just say I should stop seeing Theo? So, I think there’s no need


    for me to keep this bracelet.”


    Ellinor said with a smile, “Ms. Howard, you misunderstood. I’m not saying Mr. nchet can’t repay you


    for saving his life; your favor to Mr. nchet is always valid.


    I just hope you understand that he’s a married man now, and he needs to avoid misunderstandings


    when dealing with the opposite sex
