Chapter 473
At that moment, Patricia, and Haillie were sauntering in with shopping bags and chatting away.
“Patricia, that dress you helped me pick out is just gorgeous, I love it! I’m gonna wear it to the birthday
party tomorrow!
“Yeah, I think it’s stunning too! Haillie, you’ll surely amaze everyone when you strut in with that dress
tomorrow!”
“Whoa!” The kid saw his mom coming back and couldn’t contain his excitement, he bolted towards her
like a cannonball, tripped, landed face first on the floor, and began bawling his eyes out
Patricia nearly jumped out of her skin at the sight. She rushed over and picked him up off the floor,
‘What happened?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe child clung to her neck, seeking solace in her arms, but kept crying
“Honey, tell Mommy what’s wrong. Are you feeling unwell?’
The one year-old didn’t know how to express his feelings other than by crying
Patricia got worried. She examined his body and rolled up his sleeves. She found his arm full of
bruises, scary ones!
Patricia’s heart ached so much that her eyes welled up immediately. “How could this have happened?”
The child just cried as his tiny body trembled
Haillie was shocked by the bruises too, and then she turned her accusing gaze to the only other person
in the room
“You! Ellinor, you must have abused our child while we were gone!!
I didn’t Ellinor was puzzled.
Haillie glared at her, ‘Oh, you say you didn’t and that’s it? You were the only one with the child. If it
wasn’t you, who else could it be?”
Ellinor remained calm, “Haillie, accusations require proof
Haillie sneered Proof? You cant prove that you weren’t here, that’s the best proof
Patricia cradled her son as tears streamed down her face. She looked at Ellinor as her voice choked
with sorrow and anger, “Ellinor, 1 asked you to watch my child only for a while. How could you do this to
a child? I trusted you…”
Trust? Patricia said she trusted her? What a joke!
Ellinor instantly realized that this was a trap set by Patricia when she saw her hypocritical performance
Who would have thought Patricia could be so ruthless and take advantage of her own son?!
Just then, Balfour came back from his work, walking in on his sister and nephew crying. He frowned.

Patricia flung herself into her brother’s arms and continued crying inconsolably.
Balfour was puzzled Patri, what’s going on?””
Haillie marched forward angrily. “Balfour, good you’re here! Ellinor has been mistreating the child while
Patricia and I were out! Look at all the bruises she left on him, he’s been crying from the pain! It’s
heartbreaking!”
With that, Haillie lifted the child’s shirt for him to see
Balfour’s brows furrowed even more when he saw the patchy marks on the child’s body. His gentle
eyes turned cold as he glared at Ellinor, ‘Ms. Mendoza, have you lost all your humanity? How can you
be so cruel to a child?”
