Chapter 972


    Theo gave it a deep thought and said, “Ellinor doesn’t want to be part of your whole brother and sister


    thing. And even if she did, I wouldn’t let her go. back to the Howard family.”


    Balfour knitted his brows, “Why? You afraid our family feud will mess with your marriage?”


    Theo replied. “No outside drama will shake us. But if she returns to the Howard family, it’d be super


    awkward for her in the nchet family. Sure, I can protect her when I’m around, but I can’t always have


    her glued to my hip. And knowing her, she’d hate being dragged around everywhere with me. She had


    a tough time growing up, so I think we should stop making things hard for her. Keeping the status quo


    ain’t such a bad thing”


    Balfour thought for a moment and admitted that Theo made sense. “Alright, we’ll keep things as they


    are for now. But if you ever screw her over, the Howard family won’t stand by and watch.”


    Theo took a determined sip of his drink, “You’re worrying over nothing.”


    Soon enough, Quinton and the caregivers arrived.


    Ellinor handed over all the doctor’s orders to Quinton and then left with Theo.


    Quinton was initially surprised to see Theo in Balfour’s private residence, but when he saw Ms.


    Mendoza there too, it didn’t seem so odd anymore.


    Balfour’s private residence held a special meaning to him, and he didn’t just let anyone in. Even his


    beloved Patricia never stepped foot in there.


    But Ms. Mendoza was different. She was Balfour’s sister, the person he cared about the most in this


    world, so she had ess.


    “Balfour, how did your foot get so messed up? And they haven’t found the car that hit you? Want me to


    get someone on it?” Quinton asked.


    Balfour replied, “Theo will take care of the car. Quinton, I asked you to keep an eye on any suspicious


    activity around the nchet family. Found anything?”


    Quinton shook his head, “Nothing suspicious so far.”


    Balfour squinted uneasily, “Keep watching. Stay sharp!”


    Quinton replied. “Got it.”


    Three dayster.


    Ellinor held a press conference under her own name at Central Park.


    She had Chase Larios send out invitations to news outlets both domestic and international on her


    behalf, inviting them for an on–site interview.


    The press conference was scheduled for 8 am, and by 7 a.m., the park was swarming with media.


    Actually, Ellinor was just a small fry‘ and was not very well–known. Before this news broke, there was


    almost no information about her online; only her teachers and ssmates at Creston University knew


    her.


    The reason the media turned up in droves today was entirely because of the inte rumor that Ellinor


    was the wife of Theo nchet.


    The nchet Corporation was one of the wealthiest and most powerful groups in the country, and


    news rted to it was naturally juicy.


    In the morning, after Theo dropped Ellinor off, he headed to thepany.


    Chase and Ida Gipson’s car was parked nearby. While the reporters were still oblivious, Ellinor found


    them and got in the car.


    It was not yet half past seven. She nned to stay in the car until the press conference started;


    otherwise, she would definitely be swarmed by reporters and bombarded with crazy questions.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
