Chapter 801
“Ms. Howard, if you’re being for real, hang tight here for a second. I’m gonna run these cookies Grandma Alyssa baked upstairs to your little brother, Byran, then we can go for the tour.”
Patricia glanced at the cookies in Ellinor’s hand, “Sure, I’d like to tag along and see Byran too”
Ellinor was cool with it; she allowed Patricia to follow but nixed any physical contact.
When Byran saw Patricia come in with Ellinor, he froze for a moment, then quickly got up and shielded his sister behind him, “Ellinor, if you’ve got any beef with me, spit it out. Don’t mess with my sister!”
Ellinor gave him a look, then put the plate of cookies on his desk, These are cookies baked by Grandma Alyssa; take your time.”
Byran was taken aback again. He glanced at the cookies Ellinor had brought just for him, and his eyebrows furrowed.
Patricia tugged at Byran, “Byran, you can’t treat a guest like this! Ellinor saved Grandpa’s life, so we should respect her.”
Byran had heard from Carlos that Ellinor saved Grandpa’s life, but he hadn’t had the chance to ask for details. After hearing Patricia say this, his look at Ellinor became more complicated.
He didn’t have any negative views about Ellinor; he was just worried that Patricia might get the short end of the stick in front of Ellinor.
That’s why he was worried Ellinor might bully Patricia.
But Patricia’s attitude towards Ellinor seemed to have changed today
Byran asked in confusion, “Patricia, you and Ellinor…”
Patricia gave a laugh, “Ellinor and I have made up. We’re gonna get along fine from now on. You keep doing your homework, and I’ll take Ellinor on a tour of our house.”
While Byran was still puzzled, Ellinor and Patricia had already left together.
What was going on?
Why did Patricia and Ellinor, who were enemies before, suddenly become so harmonious?
After leaving Byran’s room, Patricia first checked the time on her watch, then looked at Ellinor with a smile.
“Ellinor, where do you wanna start the tour?”
Ellinor said, “Doesn’t matter; anywhere is fine.”
“Then I’ll take you to see my room and walk–in closet first. My room is right over there; come with me.”
Ellinor nodded, following Patricia.
She had zero interest in touring Patricia’s room, but if she directly expressed her wish to start touring from McNeil’s ex–wife’s room, that would definitely make Patricia suspicious.
Perhaps it was better to start somewhere at random.
