Chapter 816
As soon as Patricia heard about the abortion idea, her eyes lit up.
Her mom was right, tonight’s dinner was a golden opportunity. She could sneak some saffron into Ellinor’s food. Let’s see how she could keep the baby!
However, after several failed attempts, Patricia had lost her previous confidence and started to worry, “What if someone finds out it was the saffron that caused her miscarriage?”
Mrs. Howard confidently said, “Don’t worry about that. If it’s found out, I’ll take the blame. I didn’t know she was pregnant, I just wanted her to taste some good beauty and health food, it wasn’t intentional.”
With her mother’s assurance, Patricia finally felt relieved, “Wait, mom, I’ll get the saffron right away! Add a lot of it, it’s best if that woman Ellinor bleeds a
lot!”
Meanwhile, in Pearl’s room.
Ellinor was lying on the single child–sized bed, observing everything in the room.
She stayed in this room, hoping to remember something.
But, other than the strong sense of familiarity and fragments of memory triggered by the broken music box, she didn’t feel anything about the room
anymore.
Her phone suddenly rang. When Ellinor picked up, she saw that it was a video call from Theo.
“What are you doing?” Theo’s voice was deep, mature, and full.
Theo looked at files while occasionally glancing at Ellinor in the video on the other end.
He seemed very busy, but he still made time to check on her. Did he really care that much about her?
Ellinor lazily said, “I’m resting, getting ready to sleep for a bit.”
Theo frowned, lifted his head from the files, and stared at her in the video seriously, “Did you forget what I told you before?*
Ellinor answered, “I didn’t forget! I can’t eat outside, I can’t sleep outside, and I especially can’t drink outside now.”
Theo snorted, “Are you planning to sleep at someone else’s house for a while?”
Ellinor pouted, “I’m just a bit sleepy, and I haven’t even slept yet! Theo, Balfour told me this is the room I used to live in when I was a kid.”
Theo’s eyes were full of heartache as he thought about the possible injustices Ellinor suffered when she was a child, “So what? Do you want to go back and live there?”
Ellinor shook her head, “No, I just want to stay in this room for a while to see if I can remember anything from my childhood.”
Theo said, “If you can’t remember, just forget about it. It’s better to forget the unpleasant past. I’ll be with you in the future, so you just need to focus on
that.”
Theo rarely said such touching words.
Ellinor was stunned, feeling warm inside, but she laughed and said, “Theo, won’t your employees think you’re crazy if you say such loving words at work?
Theo glared at her angrily, “Do you realize I only say these words to you? Don’t you have any reaction?”
Ellinor laughed happily, she put her hand to her lips and blew a kiss, “Theo, I love you!”
Theo’s naturally cold and handsome face broke into a smile in an instant, “Naughty! If anything happens, remember to call me, and I’ll pick you up.”
Ellinor nodded, “Okay! I’m going to hang up, Theo. Bye!”
After saying this, she immediately hung up the phone without waiting for his response.
On the other end of the phone, Theo was left speechless.
She was such a mischievous girl, always so quick to hang up!
