Chapter 866
Ellinor was about to get in the car when she heard someone softly calling her name from behind.
She paused, turning around to see Balfour striding towards her
âEllinor, can I have a moment of your time? There are some things I'd like to discuss with your
Balfour said gently
A small frown creased Ellinor's brow. She thought for a moment, then turned to the man standing
beside her, âTheo, there's a shop up ahead. Could you grab me a bottle of yogurt? I'm thirsty
Couldnât Theo tell that Ellinor was trying to ditch him?
In the past, he would never have allowed her to talk privately with another man, but things were
different now. He knew Balfour was Ellinor's biological brother.
They were siblings separated for many years. Since Ellinor was willing to talk to him, he couldn't
deny Balfour some respect.
Theo nodded slightly, ruffling Ellinorâs hair lightly. Sure, I'll go get it
Then he turned and walked slowly towards the shop
As Theo receded into the distance. Balfour looked at Ellinor, âLet's go to the garden up ahead. The
car parks full of exhaust I wouldn't want you to feel sick.
Ellinor nodded Since she had agreed to stay and chat, she wouldn't mind walking a bit farther
They arrived at the hospital garden, where Balfour found a place to sit, taking off his jacket to
cushion the stone bench, Ellinor, sit here.â
Ellinor made no fuss and sat down
Balfour then neatly arranged his trouser legs and gracefully sat next to her.
âMr. Howard, spit it out. I need to get home,â said Ellinor
Balfour helplessly looked at her, I'm sorry I actually wanted to invite you over for a nice meal today
but then this unpleasant incident happened. You even almost hurt your babyâ
Ellinor smirked, âYour family has caused me enough trouble. A simple apology won't cut it.â
Balfour's brows knitted together his eyes full of guilt. âYou really won't come back home?â
âOf course I will! Ellinor replied without hesitation
Balfour's eyes brightered Was she willing to come back home?
Ellinor continued, I'm going home with Theo later.â
Balfour was stunned before he let out a bitter laugh, Does the Blanchet familyâs house feel like
home to you?â
Ellinor shook her head. âIt is just a big house to me, nothing special. My home is wherever Theo, the
man who truly cares about me, is.â
Balfour's feelings were quite mixed. As her brother, he didnât even get to choose the man for his
sister, and she had already married.
"As long as Theo makes you happy. that's what matters. If he ever dares to betray you, just tell me,
and I'll teach him a lesson
Ellinor smiled, âIf he's not faithful to me, then I wont need him anymore. You don't have to help me
teach him a lesson. I, Ellinor, would rather be alone than settle for just anybody!"
