Chapter 724
After Patricia left, the nanny gently patted Baber in her arms and comforted, “It’s okay now, Ms. Howard is gone. Baber, you don’t have to be scared.”
Baber turned his head to confirm that Patricia was really gone, and his crying gradually subsided.
The nanny sighed. She had long noticed that Ms. Howard didn’t truly love this adopted child. She only showed concern for Baber in front of others, but in private, she was cold and impatient
Poor Baber was so unlucky. He became an orphan at such a young age. He was lucky enough to be adopted by a wealthy family, but then he got a mother who just
wanted to use him.
Ah, this kid was probably not going to have an easy life.
The Blanchet villa.
Ellinor’s nap was interrupted by a phone call.
She lazily lay in the quilt, fumbling for her phone and putting it to her ear to answer.
“Hello?”
A calm male voice came from the other end of the line, “Ms. Mendoza, good morning”
Ellinor was still half asleep. She didn’t recognize the voice and asked, “Who is this?”
“Ms. Mendoza, it’s Quinton.”
Ellinor became a bit more awake, “Hmm, what’s up?”
Quinton detected that Ellinor sounded like she had just woken up. He was a bit uneasy and carefully said, “Ms. Mendoza, did I interrupt your rest?”
Whether you disturbed me or not, you’ve called already. Just say what you need to!”
“I did interrupt you, please forgive me. The thing is, Mr. Howard would like to meet with you privately. He wants to apologize for the misunderstanding last night.”
Ellinor was a bit annoyed after being disrupted from her sleep for this, “There’s no need for that, I’m hanging up.”
“Ms. Mendoza, Mr. Howard…”
Before Quinton could finish, Ellinor hung up and was ready to continue her sleep.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door of her room.
“Ellinor, it’s past ten o’clock. Mr. Blanchet instructed me to wake you up for breakfast at this time.”
It was Devin’s respectful voice outside
Ellinor rolled over, it seemed her desire to sleep in was not going to be fulfilled today.
She fixed her hair a bit, then got up to wash up.
Devin showed Ellinor a respectful smile after seeing her open the door and come out.
“Ellinor, your breakfast is ready. Mr. Blanchet has specially hired a nutritionist to prepare it for you. If there’s anything specific you want for lunch, you can tell me now and I’ll prepare it in advance.”
As Ellinor made her way downstairs, she responded, “I’m not picky; anything will do.”
“Alright, got it.”
