    He heaved a deep sigh, looking at Ellinor standing opposite him with a helpless tone, “Enough, Ellinor


    Don’t say anymore.”


    Ellinor nced at Balfour nonchntly and chuckled a bit, “Mr. Howard, are you being a protective big


    brother again?”

    Balfour fell silent


    He was stuck between a rock and a hard ce, unable to make a decision between his two sisters.


    Xenia put on a show of being a concerned mother. She stepped forward to defend her daughter, “Ms.


    Mendoza, I admit I’ve wronged you today, but my daughter is innocent! You can’t insult her like this.


    She’s already pitiful enough for being unable to bear children at such a young age: how could you say


    such hurtful things to her?”


    Ellinor turned to Xenia, “Yeah! Your daughter is already so pitiful, why would you let her drink so much


    saffron today? Who hurt her more, me or you?”


    Xenia’s face changed. She was at a loss for words.


    Patricia turned her face away from Balfour, her eyes filled with tears as she said, “Ellinor, I know my


    mom did something today that hurt you and might have upset you


    But it was just a moment of recklessness; it won’t happen again. If you have anyints, vent them


    to me. If you don’t think it’s enough, would it be eptable to you if I kneel down and apologize?”


    Patricia really started to kneel down before Ellinor as she said this.


    Ellinor immediately reached out to stop Patricia from kneeling and chuckled, “No need for this! I can’t


    ept this kind of apology. Ms. Howard, I was just teasing you guys. why are you taking it so


    seriously? Why are you crying and kneeling?”


    Patricia’s face changed again, her heart was filled with anger, and her expression was extremely


    unnatural.


    Then, Ellinor let go of Patricia and gave her a slight smile, “Ms. Howard, I know what I just said was a


    bit too much, but that’s because I wanted to give you a surprise, so I purposely annoyed you first!”


    Patricia came back to her senses, Surprise?”


    Ellinor smiled mysteriously and nodded affirmatively. “Yes! A big surprise!”


    Patricia frowned with surprise and caution. “What surprise?”


    Ellinor grinned at her, “Why don’t you take a guess, Ms Howard?”


    Patricia looked at her as a hint of displeasure shed in her clear eyes. She felt Ellinor might be ying


    her, but she still pretended not to know, “Ellinor, I can’t guess…”


    At this moment, everyone present was somewhat uneasy


    Everyone had someints about Ellinor’s current mystenous act


    However, only the bedridden Byran was straightforward, so he impatiently urged her, ‘Ellinor, whatever


    surprise you have, just spit it out! You’re driving me crazy!”


    Ellinor looked at Byran with disapproval and scoffed, “You’re sick, and you’re still not quiet?”


    Byran red at her, “That’s my business!”


    Ellinor ignored Byran. She turned her head and smiled at Patricia, “Well then, I won’t keep the secret


    any longer. I’ll tell Ms. Howard about this big surprise right now!”
