Patricia looked pale and dazed, but she firmly refused, “I don’t need it! I’m really fine, there’s no need for a check–up”
Ellinor pulled the doctor aside, ‘Ms. Howard, have a look at yourself! You look so sickly, and yet you insist that you’re fine. It’s making us all worried! It’s just a check–up, not surgery. What’s scaring you, Ms Howard?”
“I’m not scared, I’m really fine, so I’m not going.” Patricia couldn’t explain her concerns, she just felt that Ellinor had an ulterior motive, and if she went along, she might fall
for her scheme.
At this point, Balfour said sternly, “Just get the check–up, it won’t harm you.”
Patricia continued to resist, “Balfour, I’m really fine. I don’t feel unwell at all”
Balfour frowned, “Get the check–up and rule out any potential problems. Don’t wait until you get home and start complaining about discomfort!”
He had lost a lot of patience with Patricia. In the beginning, his affection for his long–lost sister, Pearl, had been transferred to her, but now that Pearl was back, that affection naturally returned to Pearl
But despite his lost patience, Patricia was still his half–sister, whom he had seen grow up. He knew she was frail, and he still cared
Patricia often complained about discomfort here and there, a check–up would mean she wouldn’t have to complain when she got back home.
With Balfour’s words, Patricia had no reason to refuse, so she reluctantly followed the doctor
Ellinor waved at Patricia with a grin, “Ms. Howard, cooperate with the doctor for your own health. Listen to the doctor!”
Patricia clenched her teeth at Ellinor’s annoying statement.
Ellinor was such a hypocrite! Patricia wondered what scheme she was cooking up this time.
After Patricia followed the doctor out, all eyes in the room turned to Xenia.
Balfour gave Xenia a cold glance, as she was an elder and his father was present, he didn’t press the matter.
He would wait until Byran woke up.
Xenia also knew her current situation was bad, so she was trying to change it.
As a stepmother, she had no status in front of Balfour. She couldn’t make a point, she could only start with her husband.
“McNeil, listen to me…”
McNeil Howard coldly waved her off. “Enough! Now is not the time for your explanations; you better pray that Byran is alright, or you’ll have no place in the Howard family!”
