Chapter 1004
Haillie furrowed her brow, “Ellinor, what are you trying to say? That Patricia’s been using me? How dare
you badmouth Patricia!”
Ellinor barely held back augh and took a small sip from her water ss, “Haillie, haven’t you noticed?
All these years, Patricia’s been ying the same trick. She gets others to do her dirty work. All she
does is shed a few crocodile tears in front of you guys, ying the victim to get what she wants. No
matter what happens, she’s always the innocent one, isn’t she?”
Haillie was adamant that there was nothing wrong with her friend, “Patricia is innocent! She’s been
pure and kind since we were kids and wouldn’t even hurt an ant. She’s not the scheming type you
described. Plus, we protect her because we want to! Ellinor, I think you’re just jealous that Patricia is
well-liked. Stop talking smack about Patricia in front of me; I won’t let you sway me!”
Ellinor, looking at the stubborn Haillie in front of her, rubbed her temples, “I don’t want to discuss
anything else. I don’t know what happened between you guys, and I only know what happened when I
was there.
Haillie, do you remember when you were used of ‘hiring a hitman’ and got jailed for it?
That was actually a show put on by Patricia herself. She originally wanted to frame me but failed, so
she let you take the fall for her.
Patricia not only ys innocent well, but she’s also very cautious. She had a contingency n, showed
your photo to the suspect beforehand, and told him to pin it on you if anything happens and not to
expose her.”
Haillie was taken aback, then found this im preposterous, “You’re talking nonsense! You were the
one who orchestrated that got me jailed for months for nothing! It’s been so long. How can you still
me Patricia?”
Ellinor shook her head helplessly, “If I was the one behind it, why would I let Patricia off the hook and
frame you, who has no direct impact on me? Does that make sense?”
Haillie was speechless, seeming to fall into doubt…
Ellinor continued, “Haillie, think about what I said. You came to me out of the blue, and I bet Patricia
told you something and asked you to do something to me, right?”
Coincidentally, Ellinor was right. Patricia did call her before she came…
Haillie was stunned, her eyes flickering, seemingly shaken but reluctant to believe her best friend would
use her. She was torn.
Seeing Haillie not responding, Ellinor continued, “This time, did Patricia tell you that I set her up, made
her lose her favor, and even got her sent to the countryside by the Howard family?”
Haillie snapped back to reality, furrowed her brows, “That’s exactly what Patricia told me…
Ellinor, I thought about it, and some of what you said makes sense. Every time Patricia would say
things that tug at my heartstrings, I can’t help but get angry for her, solve her problems while she stays
out of it.”
Ellinor looked at her and said, “That’s right. It’s not toote for you to realize now. Don’t let people use
you anymore.”
Haillie nodded, then looked at her with a puzzled look and said, “Ellinor, when did you realize that
Patricia was using me?”
Ellinor gave a faint smile and said, “Haillie, I have no grudge against you. You’ve been hostile to me
since we first met. At first, I thought it was because you liked Mr. nchet, so you saw me as the
enemy.

It was onlyter that I became aware of Patricia’s existence. That’s when I realized that most of the
times you were messing with me, it was all for Patricia.
Patricia sure knows how to y people, using their affection and sympathy for her to bend them to her
will.
Let me guess, she probably also used Balfour’s marriage to bait you, telling you that you are the one
who should be Balfour’s wife in her eyes, right?
Haillie took a step back, “How did you know?”
Ellinor smirked, “Obviously, your obsession with Balfour is just what she can use. That’s why she lied
that the baby in my belly was Balfour’s. The goal is to stir up your jealousy and get you to take me out.”
