Chapter 450

If she left the office now, she was bound to bump Into Patricia and that guy!

What should she do?

Balfour found Ellinor’s flustered reaction way more endearing than her usual bossy demeanor He

raised an eyebrow and teased, “Who’d have thought the normally tough–as–nails Ms. Mendoza could

get all flustered like this.”

Ellinor fell silent

She was in no mood to deal with Balfour’s mockery

She had considered all possibilities before coming here, but she never thought she’d run into Theo!

Aren’t the Blanchet family and the Howard family al odds? What was up with the heads of these two

families hanging out in private?

She remembered that Theo and Balfour weren’t exactly buddies

But it seemed like Theo and Patricia had made some serious progress in the past month; maybe they’d

even won over their families.

No wonder they’ve even put engagement on the agenda

Ellinor nervously gripped her hands.

Balfour narrowed his eyes, utterly indifferent to Ellinor’s feelings, and instructed Quinton outside the

door. ‘Let Patri and Mr. Blanchet in”

“Roger!” Quinton promptly responded.

Ellinor was a bag of nerves. With nowhere to hide, she could only watch as the office duor slowly

opened.

She didn’t want to see that man and didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.

In the end, without seeking Balfour’s opinion, Ellinor dashed behind the large bookshelf in the office to

hide.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Not a few seconds later, Ellinor heard Patricia’s voice echoing in the office.

“Balfour, why were you in such a rush for me to come to the office? What’s going on?”

Patricia’s voice was as soft and harmless as ever.

*Nothing much, I just noticed you’ve been spending all your time with someone else and hardly coming

home, I was worried you might forget about me!”

Balfour’s tone with Patricia was noticeably gentler, albeit a bit reproachful, but more affectionate.

Patricia blushed and acted coy. “Balfour! What are you talking about? When have I not been coming

home? I come home every day!”

Pretending to be upset, Balfour huffed, “Hmm, right! You leave the house at seven in the morning, even

before I get to the office! You come back late at night and have dinner outside; do you call that coming

home?”

Patricia, sidestepping the desk, jumped into Balfour’s arms and started acting cute. “I’ve been busy,

that’s why I’ve been coming in early and leaving late.”

“You! Ever since you found your sweetheart, you’ve forgotten all about me!”

‘Balfour!” Patricia was extremely shy.

Helplessly, Balfour stroked her hair, then looked up and nodded politely at the man who had walked in

with Patri.

“Theo, you’ve helped us out again and even took the trouble to bring Patri over

“Just on my way Theo stood straight and natural with his hands in his pockets, also nodding at Balfour

At this moment, Ellinor, hiding behind the bookcase, felt a bit down and complex. She hadn’t heard

Theo’s voice in a month.

Balfour’s gaze swept over the bookshelf behind him, reflected in the computer screen, with a hint of

mischief in his warm eyes.

“Theo, about you and Patricia, I’d like to have a detailed chat with you if you have the time now.”

Theo glanced at his wristwatch, “Sure thing”
