Chapter 1027: Chapter 1027

After saying his piece, Bryan turned and bolted out, rubbing away his tears as he ran.

Today had hit him hard. His beliefs had pretty much been smashed to smithereens.

He couldn’t believe that his own sister was the kind of person he despised the most.

If it weren’t for Ellinor texting him to come to the hospital to see his sister’s true colors, he wouldn’t have believed it until he saw it with his own eyes. It was tough to swallow.

In the past, he had done many awful things to Ellinor to help his sister snag a guy, and now he was kicking himself.

After Bryan ran out, Patricia, who was in total panic, tried to get up to chase after him, wanting to explain things to her brother. She had already lost the trust of her grandparents, older brother, and father. She couldn’t afford to lose her younger brother’s trust too.

In her and her mother’s plan, Bryan was supposed to inherit all of the Howard family’s assets in the future. She was counting on her little brother for her future.

However, she might have been so shocked and hurt that she couldn’t even get up. She felt limp and weak, as if her limbs were jelly.

As she crawled, a familiar pair of leather shoes suddenly appeared before her. Patricia tried to lift her head to see. Her messy hair almost covered most of her face, making her look like a ghost.

She recognized the owner of the shoes standing in front of her. It was her brother, Balfour.

“Brother…” Patricia cried out, “Brother, can you help me get up? I feel so weak, I can’t stand up…”

Balfour just looked at her coldly, “What did you call me?”

Patricia reached out her hand, crying, hoping her brother would help her up like he used to, “Brother, it’s me, Patri!”

Balfour scoffed, “Patri?”

“Yes, it’s me! I’m your sister, Patri. Your beloved Patri! Brother, I can’t get up. Can you help me?”

“I know who you are.”

Patricia smiled, “Brother, as long as you recognize me, help me. I feel terrible; I think I’ve been poisoned; I can’t use my strength…”

Balfour just looked at her coldly, “I’m sorry, miss. Don’t call me your brother. You know I’ve been treating you like a sister substitute, so why are you still calling me brother?”

Patricia was stunned, “Brother, it’s not… It’s not what you think. What I said wasn’t true; I was just trying to piss off Ellinor, you mustn’t believe it.”

“You’ve really disappointed me! I was nice to you because you reminded me of Pearl, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t care about you! And you think I’m a hypocrite?”

“Brother, brother…”

“You’re even worse than I thought!”
