Chapter 335
Veronica replied, “Sure thing! So, Patricia, what’s up with the call?”
Patricia feigned hesitation, “Well… nothing much really! I got you a present, then found out you’re not in the country I was thinking of sending it to you, so I need your address.”
Veronica was touched, “That’s so sweet of you, remembering to get me a present! I wish you could be my sister in law! Then I wouldn’t have been stuck in jail for over a week, only to be shipped overseas by my grandma for discipline. I’ve lost all my freedom!”
Patricia pretended to be shocked, “What!? Veronica, how did you end up in jail?”
The mention of it made Veronica furious, “It’s all because of that Ellinor my brother brought home! She’s sneaky, two–faced, and no good at all!”
Patricia sighed sympathetically, “Oh poor girl! Speaking of which, Haillie got thrown in the slammer too today! I’m just gutted, and there’s nothing I can do to get her out. So I thought I’d chat with you to take my mind off things…”
Veronica was surprised, “What? Haillie got locked up too? What happened?”
Patricia initially dodged the question but eventually spilled the beans under Veronica’s persistent queries…
After hearing Patricia’s account, Veronica was livid, “That’s outrageous! It’s that Ellinor again! I bet she set Haillie up too! My brother basically brought a disaster home!”
Patricia got the reaction she wanted, then cautiously asked, “By the way, Veronica, did you go online today?”
Veronica answered, “Nope! I’ve been browsing foreign websites lately. Anything happened online?”
Patricia advised, “Veronica, you’ve gotta remember not to let grandpa and grandma see the domestic websites. I’m worried it’ll make them sick…”
“What’s up? Anything happened on the domestic web that relates to the Blanchet family?”
“Veronica, you’d better not look, seriously, don’t!”
Upon hearing Patricia’s half–explanation, Veronica was already on her tablet to check. After reading it, she was fuming!
“That bitch actually resorted to blackmail! If people find out she’s from the Blanchet family, she’ll ruin our reputation! No way! I’m telling grandpa and grandma right now, and they’ll make my brother ditch that woman!”
Patricia pretended to advise kindly, “Veronica, don’t do this, it’s not a good idea…”
But Veronica was already out of bed and dressing, “Patricia, don’t worry about it! The Blanchet family will never tolerate such disgraceful women ruining our family traditions!”
With that, she hung up in a rush.
Listening to the busy tone, Patricia broke into a smile. Everything was going according to plan!
Back at the Blanchet family mansion, Ellinor went straight upstairs, eager to wash off the sticky coke residue on her.
Theo followed her upstairs, but as soon as he set foot in the room, she ruthlessly pushed him out, attempting to lock him out!
This man forcefully held the door open, not allowing her to close it. He quirked an eyebrow, “Didn’t we agree to cohabitate? Why are you kicking me out now?”
