Chapter 734
Balfour rubbed his temples as he looked at Patricia, this real headache of a woman “Whatever you’re here at the Blanchet family’s home for, it doesn’t matter. You need to head home right now”
Patricia noticed that Balfour was not messing around. She obediently nodded and stepped forward “Balfour, I know I shouldn’t have left Baber alone at home and come out. I’ll go home and accompany Baber now, let’s go!”
However, Balfour didn’t budge. “Quinton is outside, he can drop you home.”
Patnoia was taken aback and puzzled. “Balfour, you’re not coming with me?”
Balfour nodded silently I have things to take care of, you go home first”
Wait, what? Balfour didn’t come here to pick her up? Patricia was shocked. She glanced at where Balfour was sitting, right across from Ellinor
Was Balfour here to see Ellinor?
The more she thought about it, the more it didn’t sit right. Patricia obediently said, “Balfour, it’s okay, I can wait for you. We can go home together after you’re done.”
Balfour’s eyes flashed with impatience. “No need to wait, you can go first. I’ll be heading to the office later. I won’t be going home.”
With that Patricia had no reason to stick around and find out why Balfour came to see Ellinor. She simply said, “Oh, okay, then I’ll go ahead…”
Before leaving. Patricia shot a significant glance at Veronica.
Veronica caught Patricia’s look. She was confused at first, then seemed to understand something and said excitedly. “Patricia, I’ll come with you!”
Patricia twitched her mouth in disbelief.
Veronica really had no brain. Why would she come with her? Her look was meant to tell Veronica to eavesdrop on what Balfour and Ellinor might say, not to tag. along! What a dummy!
Veronica, completely oblivious to her misunderstanding, linked arms with Patricia and walked out with her, mumbling, “Patricia, what’s up with your brother today? He didn’t come to pick you up?”
Patricia rolled her eyes at Veronica and forced a laugh. “I have no clue, maybe my brother has some business to discuss with Ellinor”
Veronica thought for a moment, and then it dawned on her. “Oh! I get it! Your brother must be putting pressure on Ellinor to get the hell away from my brother and give him back to you!”
Patricia considered Veronica’s statement. It was possible. Balfour had always been concerned about her marital issues. Had he come specifically to put pressure
on Ellinor?
With Patricia and Veronica gone, the butler and servants of the Blanchet family discreetly withdrew.
Balfour finally relaxed, looking at Ellinor across the table, who was enjoying her meal. He asked softly, “How is it? Do you find it delicious?”
Ellinor nodded sincerely. “Your cooking is really good, it’s very delicious!”
Balfour’s eyes sparkled with joy at her approval. “You still love pasta, just like when you were little”
Ellinor paused, then calmly looked at Balfour. “Really? I don’t remember”
Balfour’s brow furrowed “Aren’t you curious how I know your childhood favorites?”
Ellinor smiled slightly. “Yes, how do you know my childhood favorites?”
After a moment of silence, Balfour said formally, “Ellinor, you are actually my long–lost sister. Your real name should be Pearl.”
Ellinor calmly took another bite of pasta. “I knew.”
