Chapter 486
He couldn’t express his feelings and was always worried about Ellinor being alone and unsafe.
Balfour turned around and asked her, ‘You’ve got my number right?”
“Yeah, I saved your number”
“Good, call me if anything happens before I get back.”
“Alright.”
Only then did Balfour actually leave, his tall figure disappearing into the bustling crowd.
And just now, when Balfour came in with Ellinor, Haillie and Patricia, who were chatting on the stairs, saw everything and felt uncomfortable. Patricia forced a smile, “Looks like Balfour really cares about Ellinor! That jacket she’s wearing I gave it to Balfour a few days ago!”
The jacket was originally for Theo, but he didn’t accept it. She felt disappointed and thought it would be a waste to throw it away, so she gave it to Balfour.
After all, Balfour and Theo were about the same size, so it was not a big deal
But now seeing that jacket on Ellinor made Patricia feel really uncomfortable
Why would Balfour give Ellinor his jacket? Wasn’t Balfour supposed to hate Ellinor?
Haillie felt even worse. She chugged her wine, complaining furiously, “Patricia, you see it too! How good is Ellinor really? How could she manage to make Balfour care about her in just a few days?
For years, Haillie had been the one accompanying Balfour to birthday dinners, trying hard to win his affection but never getting anything in return.
Why did Ellinor get to have Balfour’s attention?
The more she thought about it, the angrier Haillie got. She stomped down the stairs, shouting at Ellinor, “You shameless woman, have you no decency?”
Ellinor was tasting a cupcake at the dessert station. Hearing the voice, she turned to look at Haillie, smirking. “Oh, it’s Haillie! Who pissed you off? Why are you spewing insults?”
Ellinor turned her head, her beautiful face was a sight to behold. She had a bit of cream on her lips and didn’t realize it, looking absolutely adorable.
Seeing Ellinor like this made Haillie even angrier, “First you seduced others, now you’re trying to seduce my Balfour! Ellinor, can’t you live without men?”
Ellinor laughed. ‘Seems like the one who can’t live without men isn’t me. Right now, the one throwing a hissy fit because of a lack of male company is you, isn’t it. Haillie?”
Haillie gritted her teeth in anger, ‘Ellinor…”
She was having a hard time swallowing her pride, reaching for a cupcake to throw at Ellinor’s face!
Seeing this, Patricia hurriedly stopped Haillie, “Don’t!”
Haillie was feeling down because she couldn’t be Balfour’s companion and had already had quite a bit of wine. If she lost control because of the alcohol and made things worse, the situation would become very tricky
