Chapter 902: Chapter 902

“You’re here, so there’s no need to worry about wasting food.” Balfour insisted; he just couldn’t bear to see his sister like this.

“Mr. Howard, do you think I’m being cheap with the way I eat?” Ellinor raised an eyebrow at him.

Balfour was taken aback and quickly said, “Of course not!”

Ellinor’s gaze deepened, “If not, then please stop interfering with how I eat.”

Balfour had no response. He had no choice but to return to his seat, silently watching his sister and obeying her. As long as she was happy. he was content, deciding not to push her any further.

Ellinor leisurely ate a piece of grilled salmon, then spoke, “Mr. Howard, about our family ties, I hope you haven’t told anyone else. You haven’t mentioned it to anyone else, have you?”

Balfour nodded, “Yes, don’t worry, I haven’t told anyone. Ellinor, until I’m certain you want to come home, I won’t tell anyone easily.

If I did, our grandparents would be rushing to the Blanchet family to bring you back, and mom’s relatives would also be in a hurry to have you over. Then there are the seven uncles and twelve cousins abroad, who would fly back immediately to see you. You may have forgotten them, but each of them misses you a lot. I’m afraid they might bother you, so I haven’t told them yet.”

The fact that her mother’s relatives would look for her didn’t surprise Ellinor. Her mother was the biological daughter of the Bagley family, and she was the biological granddaughter of her biological daughter, so her maternal grandparents would definitely accept her.

But the Howard family was different.

“Why would your grandparents be restless? Don’t they think that I am not their biological granddaughter? What are they looking for me for? Wait, Mr. Howard, you seem to have the same view!” A cold smile hung on Ellinor’s lips.

“No!” Balfour didn’t know how to make his sister believe in his stance, so he excitedly reached out and grabbed her hand, “Ellinor, believe me, I have never thought that way!”

When Patricia came to the cafeteria, she just saw Balfour holding Ellinor’s hand.

She was first stunned, then looked at Ellinor in surprise and jealousy, took out her phone, snapped a picture of Ellinor and Balfour making physical contact, and quietly sent it to Theo.

Wouldn’t Theo be angry if he saw Ellinor interacting with other men like this?

However, Patricia couldn’t hear what Balfour and Ellinor were saying because she was standing too far away.

She found it very strange; why would they need to hold hands just to talk?

So she walked over, putting on her most innocent face, “Brother, I brought you food; why are you eating here in the cafeteria?”

Seeing Patricia coming, Ellinor forcefully pulled her hand back.

Balfour also let go of Ellinor and sat up straight, “Ms. Mendoza is here; I can’t ignore her.”

Patricia looked at Ellinor, then blinked innocently, “Ellinor, didn’t you just say you were going to wait for me downstairs? Why did you come up?”

Ellinor glanced at her coldly, “You made me wait too long; I was hungry. I just came up to eat, and I’ll leave when I’m done.”

Patricia lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, “I’m sorry, Ellinor, it’s my fault; I made you wait so long. Since you’re up here too, why don’t you eat some of the food I brought with my brother? It’s much better than the cafeteria food.”

After that, Patricia put the lunchbox on the table, gently opened them, laid out the four dishes, and then kindly handed Balfour a set of cutlery, “Bro, you’ve been busy all morning; eat some before it gets cold!”
