Chapter 997


    Chapter 997


    Ellinor nced at the old couple from the Howard family, feeling their affection, then remembered the


    dissatisfaction she had heard about her mom when she first arrived at, her heart filled with sarcasm


    and indifference.


    If they knew she was the kid of Marlinie, whom they disliked, their attitudes would change, right?


    Ellinor coolly withdrew her hand, and while smiling, she said, “Well, thanks for believing in me.”


    Their so-called “punishment’ for Xenia and Patricia was just sending them to a country house.


    Was that punishment?


    To her, it was more like a vacation!


    The house had everything they needed; they could enjoy delicious food and fine wine, only the long-


    term stay might be a bit lonely.


    Compared to the way the Howard family punished her mom, this light punishment was nothing, right?


    Ellinor’s lips held a polite smile, but her eyes were cold, “By the way, I want to discuss something with


    you.”


    Alyssa spoke gently, “Just tell us what it is. If Grandpa Dean and I can do it, we’ll definitely satisfy you!”


    Dean echoed, “Yes, Ellinor, just name it!”


    Ellinor kept smiling, “I didn’te to you because Mrs. Howard and Ms. Howard ndered me, and I


    just want to discuss something with you.” Dean and Alyssa exchanged looks, not knowing what Ellinor


    wanted to discuss. They could only sense that despite her politeness, she seemed distant.


    Alyssa said, “Okay, Ellinor, what is it that you want to discuss with us?”


    Ellinor spoke indifferently, “Ms. Howard had previously imed to be the lifesaver of Mr. nchet and


    falsely imed that she became infertile because of saving Mr. nchet, making him feel guilty.”


    Although Dean wasn’t there at the time, he also heard about it and felt ashamed of his granddaughter’s


    behavior.


    “Uh, we know about that. Ellinor, do you want Patri to apologize orpensate you in some way?”

    Ellinor shook her head, “No, we don’t need her apology orpensation. But previously, Ms. Howard


    used the excuse of her infertility and her love for children to persuade Mr. nchet to adopt a child


    from abroad with her, and they named him Baber.


    Later, everyone found out that Ms. Howard was not infertile, and she could still have her own children.


    As far as I know, the child wasn’t well taken care of by Ms. Howard, often getting injured and sick. I also


    heard that Ms. Howard became very indifferent to him once she realized the child was no longer useful


    to her.


    So, I was thinking, if Ms. Howard doesn’t like the child and doesn’t want to take responsibility for him,


    can we let Mr. nchet take the child? After all, Mr. nchet is also one of the child’s legal guardians.”


    She had promised Baber that she would help him, and she intended to keep her word.


    Baber reminded her of her helpless self when she was a child…


    However, when Ellinor stated what she wanted to discuss, Dean, Alyssa, and McNeil all looked at her


    with surprise and disbelief.
