Chapter 403
Ellinor looked utterly baffled. She stared at Patricia, who was putting on a show on the ground like she
was a lunatic.
Balfour Howard, who had just emerged from the villa, quickly rushed over, pushed Ellinor aside and
asked coldly, “Beat it! What are you trying to do to
Patri?”
Without waiting for Ellinor to explain, he quickly bent down to help Patricia up from the ground, his
heart aching for her.
Patri, are you okay? Nothing serious, right?”
Men were always much stronger than girls. Even though Ellinor was steady on her feet, she was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtalmost knocked over by Balfour’s push
She stumbled backward, trying to steady herself, but unfortunately slipped on the cobblestone path
specially laid out for the villa and fell into a nearby fish pond.
The pond wasn’t deep, but the villa was near the mountains and the temperature was quite low at
night. She felt a chill down to her bones after falling into the water.
She managed to get her head out of the water but still looked like a drowned rat.
Just as she was about to get up, a tall figure suddenly jumped down into the pond and swam towards
her. The man reached out with his long arm and scooped her up.
It was Theo!
Ellinor shivered, “Theo, I’m cold…
Theo quickly took off his coat and wrapped her soaking wet body in it, then carried her back to the
shore. “There, there, you’ll be alright. Let’s go inside and change your clothes; you won’t be cold then”
On the shore, Balfour glanced at Ellinor, who was nestled in Theo’s arms, with a hint of sarcasm in his
eyes. He walked up to Theo and said, Theo, before you leave, I think I should explain. I only pushed
her away just now to stop her from hurting Patri further! Who knew she would fall into the water?!”
Ellinor frowned. Was Balfour implying that she was pretending to be pitiful by falling into the water on
purpose?
Wasn’t Patricia the one who was pretending? Theo glared coldly at Balfour, “That’s no excuse for you
to be rough with a girl!”
Balfour wasn’t in a hurry to argue. Theo, do you know? Your woman forced Patricia to kneel just now
and even kicked her away! If I hadn’t seen it and stopped her, she might have stepped on Patri a few
more times!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheo paused, looking at Patricia, who was pale and shivering; his brows furrowed slightly, ‘Are you
okay? Did you get hurt?”
Patricia, still shaken, shook her head, “Theo, I’m okay; don’t blame Ellinor. It’s all my fault. I made her
angry…”
Theo lowered his head to look at the bedraggled Ellinor in his arms and asked in a deep voice, “What
happened?”
Ellinor paused, then hopped out of Theo’s arms and said calmly. There’s no surveillance here, so
whatever I say can’t be proven! But I won’t accept being framed for something I didn’t do. If you don’t
believe me, call the cops and have me arrested again!”
After that, she walked alone into the villa, just wanting to warm up..
Falling into the water and getting cold could cause a cold, and she wasn’t going to risk her health.
As for Theo, since he didn’t trust her, so be it! She didn’t care!
