Chapter 896
Ellinor’s words made Patricia’s brow furrow, and she was struggling to keep up her seemingly
“innocent” smile!
She couldn’t get any answers from Balfour, so she tried to dig up some info from Ellinor, and it seemed
like Ellinor was hinting that her status
at Balfour’s was no more.
Patricia didn’t want Ellinor to see her difort from the sarcasm, so she answered in a forced, calm
manner, “Hmm, you make a good point, Ellinor. I guess I’ll have to ask my brother.”
After saying this with a smile, Patricia turned her head to look out the car window with a cunning
expression on her face, and she even touched her teeth.
“Ellinor, we’re at thepany. I’m going to bring lunch to my brother now. Do you want toe with
me?”

Ellinorzily leaned back in her seat, seemingly taking a little snooze, showing no interest in this. “No
need, I’ll just wait for you here. But you better hurry. I don’t have much patience today.”
Patricia didn’t insist on inviting her anymore, and she just politely said, “All right, then you wait here,
Ellinor. Don’t go anywhere, okay? I have
some stuff about Theo to tell youter!”
Ellinor replied indifferently, not showing any interest.
Patricia gave her a silent nce, then took the packed food and walked into the Howard Group.
In the Howard Group.
At the entrance to the CEO’s office.
Quinton stopped Patricia and said, “Ms. Howard, what are you doing here again? Didn’t Mr. Howard
already say he doesn’t want you to keep bringing him lunch?”
Patricia gently shook her head, “I don’t mind! I don’t have much to do at home anyway, and my brother
is so busy every day. I worry he’s not eating properly… Quinton, can you go in and tell my brother that I
brought his favorite dish today and that he should eat it while it’s still hot!”
Quinton frowned, reaching out his hand, “Ms. Howard, hand me the food. Once Mr. Howard is done
with his work, I’ll bring it in for him.”
Patricia obviously wasn’t willing to do this. Instead of handing over the food, she looked at Quinton with
doe-eyed innocence, “Quinton, is my brother really that busy? I can’t even see him for a moment? My
brother hasn’t been home for several days; I miss him…”
Quinton looked ufortable. Mr. Howard had been working overtime at thepany for the past few
days, not returning home because he didn’t want to see Ms. Howard and hear her exnations about
the things that gave him a headache.
“Mr. Howard really is busy with work these days. He’s been working overtime at thepany. But you
don’t have to worry; I’ll remind him to eat on time. You can just give me the food.”
Patricia seemed doubtful of Quinton’s words, her tears nearly falling, “Quinton, I know it was wrong to
lie to you before, and I understand that it was wrong to scheme against Ellinor to win Theo’s heart. I
know I was wrong, and I’ve corrected my mistakes. I just ran into Ellinor on the road. I politely invited
her into the car, nning to have the driver take a detour to take her home. I’ve corrected my mistakes.
Why doesn’t my brother want to see me?”
Quinton’s expression changed slightly, “You mean Ms. Mendoza is here too?”
Patricia wanted Quinton to see that she really knew she was wrong, that she had deeply reflected, and
corrected her actions, hoping Quinton could put in a few good words for her to Balfour.
So, she mentioned her good deed of helping Ellinor to prove her change of heart.
However, Quinton seemed to have missed the point; his concern was that Ellinor was here too.
Patricia was puzzled, then she nodded, “Yes! I just ran into Ellinor on the road, and I saw her walking
alone. So I invited her into the car, intending to give her a lift. Quinton, let me see my brother, please.
I’ll leave as soon as I see him. Ellinor is still waiting downstairs for me to take her home!”
