After a deep thought, a slight hint of resentment surfaced in Ellinorâs eyes as she looked at Patricia âYouâre right, you won! But you didnât really beat me, you just won because you have a brother whoâs willing to stand up for you!â
Brotherâ¦
Ellinor had never felt such irony in this wordâ
Balfour, her brother born of the same mother and father, had taken the side of the villain who had driven their mother to despair, and he even cherished and protected the daughter of that villain?
All of Balfourâs intelligence was focused on his work! Heâs a real turncoat!
Patricia said smugly, âAre you jealous that I have such a good brother? You canât have him no matter how much you envy me! You canât get fate by being envious! Now, just accept the operation obediently.
I might be merciful and keep my brother from bothering you in the future!â
Ellinor chuckled. âIs there such a thing as mercy, Ms. Howard?â
Patriciaâs face froze, she glared at Ellinor, then turned to the people behind her and yelled, âQuinton, Ellinor says sheâs ready for the operation!â
Quinton came up to arrange it, and Ellinor was taken into the operating room by the medical staffâ¦
Patricia sat outside the operating room waiting for good news, her eyes and heart filled with triumph.
As long as Ellinorâs child no longer existed, she could no longer pose a threat to her!
She didnât want her happy marriage life with Theo to be disrupted by Ellinor coming back with an illegitimate child, trying to win Theoâs heart and the Blanchet familyâs fortune!
She absolutely couldnât let that happen!
But just as she was feeling self-satisfied, a tall figure suddenly appeared in the hospital corridor.
Patricia was surprised. âTheo, why are you here?â
Theo didnât even look at her, he walked straight past her, ignoring the medical staffâs attempts to stop him, and kicked open the door of the operating room!
Ellinor was lying on the bed in the operating room, the anesthesiologist had prepared the dose of the drug, ready to injectâ¦
Suddenly someone barged in, startling all the medical staff!
âWho are you? How can you break into the operating room!â
âPlease leave immediately, donât interfere with our operation!â
Several medical staff came forward to drive the intruder away, but the man coldly pushed them away.
He walked up to the operating table and looked at the girl ready for surgery.
Ellinor, lying on the operating table, was first surprised to see Theo, then she frowned, âMr. Blanchet?
Barging into a gynecological operating room like this, isnât it inappropriate?â
Theo looked at her darkly. âThe child is ours, the decision to keep or got is not yours alone! Get up, come with me!â
Ellinor blinked in surprise, what was he talking about?
Seeing that she didnât move, Theo simply picked her up from the bed and turned to leave.
Ellinor was stunned, she didnât resist much, letting the man take her away She didnât really want to have an abortion, the medical staff in the operating room had been arranged properly, all of todayâs events were just a show for Balfour and Patricia, the purpose was to let them mistakenly think that she had an abortion.
This way, she could avoid the Howard family always paying too much attention to her pregnancy, and making a fuss!
However, Theoâs sudden appearance was indeed beyond her expectations, she really didnât expect this man to show up hereâ¦
Outside the operating room, Quinton and the Howard familyâs bodyguards blocked their way.
Quinton said, âMr. Blanchet, the operation hasnât started yet, you canât take Ms. Mendoza away from here!â
