    Byran blinked as he looked out to see his brother’s ride pulling up.


    The ck business car parked at the front of the gate. The driver got out to open the door and out


    stepped Balfour.


    Sophia stared at Balfour in a daze, quickly putting on a bitter smile. Her voice was hoarse; it was clear


    that she had been crying.


    “So, Mr. Howard is back.”


    Balfour took a couple steps forward while squinting at Sophia with a scrutinizing gaze and casually


    asked, “And you are?”


    Sophia was taken aback. He didn’t remember her?


    Despite Balfour rarely showing his face at social events, they’d met at a few important business dinners


    and even had close


    conversations.


    Realizing that she had been forgotten, Sophia felt a bit bummed but didn’t let it show, only responding


    with a bitter smile.


    “Mr. Howard, hi, I’m Theo’s friend, Sophia. We’ve met before, don’t you remember?”


    After hearing her describe herself as Theo’s friend, the indifference in Balfour’s eyes was now mixed


    with a hint of suspicion.


    “What brings you to my house?”


    Sophia said, “As I’ve exined to Byran earlier, I heard Ellinor was staying here and thought I’d drop


    by. I brought her some special supplements that are great for pregnant women.”


    ”


    Saying this, she held up the supplements in her hand.


    Balfour didn’t even spare a nce at the supplements. His housecked nothing; Ellinor could have


    any supplement she wanted.


    “She needs some peace and quiet, so she can’t see anyone right now. You should head back.”.


    With that cold remark, Balfour walked straight past Sophia.


    Sophia didn’t give up though. She furrowed her brows and turned to shout at Balfour’s retreating back.


    “Mr. Howard, I know why you won’t let me see Ellinor!”


    Balfour paused. “If you know why, then you shouldn’t havee.


    Sophia insisted, “But don’t you think it’s unfair to Ellinor? She has a right to know everything!”


    Balfour’s tone was steady. “She does have a right, but not now.”


    Balfour turned around; his eyes were menacing, as if he were trying to warn her that he had already


    seen through her motives. He sternly told her, “Even if she mes meter, it’s my business. Don’t


    stick your nose in it!”


    Sophia’s face was etched in grief. “You guys have no right to deprive Ellinor of this news! She should


    be saying her goodbyes to Theo. She has his child in her belly, so she must mourn the child’s father’s

    Balfour was getting impatient with her. He shouted out amand to the servants in his deep voice.


    “Someone, show thedy out! I don’t want to see this impolite woman at my doorstep ever again!”


    “Yes, sir!”


    A few servants came over and escorted Sophia out.


    After watching Sophia being led away, Byran looked at Balfour, who hade home unexpectedly


    early, and began feeling uneasy. “What was that chick talking about? What happened to Theo? What


    goodbye? What mourning?”


    ? ? ?? ?? ?? ?


    Balfour coldly stared at him; his gaze showed his disappointment. “If I hadn’te back just now, were


    you nning on letting that woman, who we barely know, in?”


    Byran scratched his head. “Well… She was crying… She looked really pitiful, so I thought I’d let her


    stay for a bit, but I was nning to keep an eye on her! Plus, I know she really is Theo’s friend!”


    Balfour lightly thumped him on the head. “What does someone else’s crying have to do with you?”
