Chapter 810
Ellinor quirked an eyebrow, her smile sharp as a knife, “Mr. Howard, you seriously think I give a hoot about what you think of me?
Balfour fell silent as regret and shame washed over him for his past behavior. He could understand why Ellinor was rejecting him
He knew that Ellinor didn’t care about his attitude, let alone anything about the Howard family
Still, he wished that Ellinor would come home to give him a chance to make up for his past mistakes.
Balfour sighed, asking softly, “Ellinor, what can I do for you to forgive me? To make you come home?”
Ellinor looked at Balfour’s current attitude. Compared to his previous arrogance, he seemed to be groveling now. But this didn’t move her at at.
“Mr. Howard, you must understand. I’m not mad about your past misunderstandings, nor do I hold a grudge because you treated me poorly. To me, we were just strangers who shared blood, and now, at most, we’re acquaintances
So, I think your doubts, misunderstandings, and even your dislike for me were all normal. Please don’t play the forgiveness card with me, it just doesnt suit you‘
Balfour was at a loss for words, he had never felt so helpless before.
Ellinor continued, “Also, I’m not coming back to the Howard family, nor will I have any relation with any member of your family. This has nothing to do with how you treated me before.
As far as I know, the Howard family once thought I wasn’t their child. You guys even had a paternity test done and then drove my mom away. Why should I still carry the Howard family name?”
Balfour’s eyes suddenly tensed, “You remember those things?”
Pearl was so young then; how did she remember that chaotic time?
Ellinor said sternly, “I don’t remember, but I’ve found out all the information.
Now, I know everything on the surface, and I will find out the truth behind it all. I won’t let anyone who wronged my mom live peacefully anymore!
And you, and every single person in this family, are accomplices in driving my mom away!”
Balfour’s eyes flickered; he fell silent for a while, then sighed, “Ellinor, you don’t need to look anymore. I will tell you everything you want to know!
Ellinor’s eyes lit up. “Really? Then tell me now, who wronged my mom?”
Balfour looked at her complexly, “No one wronged Mom; the evidence was undeniable; your mom made a mistake.”
The light in Ellinor’s eyes dimmed suddenly, “Undeniable evidence? Hah! So, Mr. Howard, do you also believe that I’m the product of my mom’s affer with
another man?”
Balfour shook his head, “No, you’re not. You’re my full sister. But Mom did make a mistake, no one wronged her at that time”
Ellinor laughed lightly, “Mr. Howard, can you shut up? I’d appreciate it if you didn’t call yourself my brother and stopped calling me your sister, I’m not you sister! Your sister is Patricia; don’t get it twisted.”
The fact that she had a brother who didn’t even trust their own mother was absurd to Ellinor.
Even if it were as Balfour said, Ellinor would never believe her mother was that kind of person.
So–called undeniable evidence? That’s impossible!
Someone deliberately framed her, evidence could be fabricated.
Balfour’s eyes were deep, he seemed to want to say something, “Ellinor…”
But Ellinor didn’t want to hear anymore, “Sorry, I’m tired! I’m gonna go downstairs to borrow a guest room from Grandpa Dear, I need some rest. Please move, Mr. Howard”
Balfour sighed helplessly. “If you’re tired, you can rest in this room. No one will disturb you here, and when it’s dinner time, sis.……..*
