Chapter 533
Ellinor gave Patricia a light shove. Patricia reacted as if she’d been pushed with a lot of force, staggering back and almost falling over Patricia was trying to provoke Ellinor into lashing out, hoping to convince people that Ellinor was the one who had hurt the child
Just as Patricia was about to fall, someone caught her, preventing her from hitting the ground
She thought it was Theo who had caught her and felt a surge of happiness, only to find out it was her brother, Balfour
Balfour helped her to her feet and protectively held her, then glared at Ellinor, saying, “Let’s see if you dare push her again.”
Ellinor replied, ‘I didn’t push her, I just moved her hand off me”
Balfour frowned, “I saw it, and you still deny it?”
Ellinor thought “What did he see? Is he just imagining things?”
When she found out that it wasn’t Theo who had caught her, Patricia felt a bit disappointed, but she still nestled into her brother’s arms, tearfully saying, “Bro, you’re finally here Baber’s face is ruined.”
Balfour coldly looked at Ellinor and asked, “What did the child do to upset you? How could you treat a child who doesn’t understand things this way?!”
Ellinor answered calmly, “Mr. Howard, I didn’t do what Patricia claims I did.”
Balfour sneered, “You didn’t do it? Can anyone vouch for you?”
Ellinor said, “Then call the cops!”
She thought that, at that time, only she and Patricia were present. The waiter would definitely avoid responsibility, they wouldn’t own up to anything.
Balfour felt disgusted by Ellinor’s defiant and unrepentant attitude.
While gently patting his sister’s back to comfort her, he glared at Ellinor, thinking about how to handle her next.
At this point, Bartlett intervened, “Balfour, I think there might be a misunderstanding. Ellinor has no reason to hurt Baber, it doesn’t benefit her. There are definitely cameras in the restaurant, just send someone to check the footage.”
Balfour said, “I’ve already sent someone to check it. The restaurant’s camera broke last month and still haven’t been repaired, nothing can be found.”
Upon hearing this, Patricia cried even harder, “Bro, the camera was broken! Ellinor must have known it was broken, that’s why she dared to hurt Baber!”
Balfour frowned and comforted her, “Patricia, don’t worry, I won’t let Baber suffer in vain, she will pay for this.”
Ellinor stood there and found Balfour’s accusatory gaze a bit ironic.
Having worked at the Howard Group for a few days, Ellinor had gotten to know Balfour.
Balfour was extremely astute and calculated in his work and social interactions, one could even say he was a bit cunning. But when it came to his sister, he seemed to lose all rationality.
His obsession with his sister was simply indescribable!
Balfour didn’t question Ellinor further, knowing she wouldn’t admit to anything. He turned to a man who had just walked out of the emergency room. “Theo, don’t you have something to say?”
Theo had just arranged for the child’s hospital treatment. He looked at Balfour and then said expressionlessly, “Ellinor, come with me.”
