Ellinor didn’t say no. She just gave a nonchnt nod and continued to chow down on her meal.
Ellinor, Balfour, and Byran were not the only people at the table. Their temporary resident, Belinda, was
also there.
On seeing Balfour being all sweet and caring to Ellinor, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy for
Theo, and her eyes were vigntly fixed on Balfour.
Balfour naturally felt the hostility from Belinda, but he brushed it off. After finishing his breakfast, he
wiped his mouth, bid Ellinor goodbye, and left the dining room. After Balfour left, Belinda couldn’t hold
back and asked, “Ellinor, don’t you think Balfour’s behavior towards you is a bit off?”
Ellinor didn’t think much of it. “Really?”
Belinda nodded affirmatively. “Yes! The way he looks at you is so gentle; he’s even more gentle than he
is to his own brother. I suspect he has a thing for you; it’s not safe for you to stay here. If you don’t want
to go to the nchet Vi,e to my ce.”
Ellinor, now full, stood up and patted Belinda’s head. “Go home after you’re done eating and stop
worrying about me.”

Belinda frowned. “How can I not worry? There’s Balfour and also Bartlett. There are so many men
eyeing you. It’s a total threat for Theo. Ellinor, you’re too irresistible. I can’t rx!”
Ellinor just smiled and then looked at Byran, who was still munching on his sandwich. “Take her with
you when you go to schoolter, and have the driver drop her home.”
Byran raised his hand and made an OK gesture.
Then Ellinor slowly walked out to the yard to catch some sun.
Without getting any useful info from Ellinor, Belinda turned her attention to Byran. “Tell me! Has Balfour
always had a thing for Ellinor? Did he sweet-talk her into staying here?”
Byran rolled his eyes. “You’re overthinking.”
Belinda red at him. “Then why is Balfour so nice to Ellinor? I’ve never seen him pay so much
attention to any other girl!”
Byran remembered his brother’s warning not to reveal Ellinor’s identity.
“Does a man have to have romantic feelings for a woman to care about her? Can’t it be pure
friendship? Look at me; I have zero feelings for you.”
Belinda looked annoyed. “Duh! I have zero feelings for you too! But I wouldn’t call you a good friend, let
alone care about you.”
Byran couldn’t be bothered to argue further. “In short, things are not as you think. Are you done eating?
If you’re full,e with me. Ellinor asked me to take you home, so I’ve gotta do it.”
But Belinda noticed something else. “Hold on! Byran, didn’t you hate Ellinor before? You even said
she’s a scheming girl who was alwayspeting with your sister for men. Now you listen to her so
obediently?”
There was a sh of embarrassment in Byran’s eyes. “Uh, who hasn’t misjudged people and done
stupid things when they were young? I misunderstood Ellinor before, but now that I know her, of course
I’ll respect her. Enough, what are you even talking about? We gotta leave now.”
Belinda checked the time, and she indeed had some stuff to handle. It was time to go.
Anyhow, she and Byran would be in the same ride; she could grill him on the way.
So she got up and followed Byran out the door.
After getting in the car, Byran gave the driver instructions. “Drop me off at school first, and then take
Belinda back to her home.”
The driver responded, “Roger that.”
