Chapter 417
“Oh, I seel” After hearing this, Byran nodded without any doubt, then turned to Patricia and said, “I got
it! So you must’ve misunderstood Ellinor and took a knee, but you kinda tripped over yourself and fell.
Balfour just happened to see this and thought Ellinor was bullying you, even kicking you!”
Patricia was speechless.
Is this Byran the same brat who’d always taken her side? Was this really Byran?
Even Ellinor was a bit taken aback.
It was rare for Byran, who always protected Patricia, to take the side of reason over kin and believe
Ellinor
Patricia forced a chuckle, going along with Byran’s conclusion, “Could be, maybe I was a tad dizzy from
the night wind and got it all moxed up
She always acted meek and kind in public, so even if she had any objections to Byran’s explanation,
she couldn’t really argue.

barbecue chicken wings in front of Ellinor and boasted
“Ellinor, give these a try. They’re my secret recipe chicken wings. They’ve cooled down a bit, but I
promise you’ve never tasted wings this good”
Ellinor being hungry, didn’t hesitate to grab a skewer and take a bite.
“Not bad!”
Byran puffed up his chest in pride. “Right? I wasn’t blowing smoke, was I?”
Ellinor gave him a thumbs up. “Yep, your grilling skills live up to your reputation; totally legit!”
Byran’s face flushed with her praise. To cover his embarrassment, he boasted some more.
Seeing Ellinor and Byran chatting and eating, Patricia’s eyes flickered with a hint of malice. She felt as
if her terntory and her subjects were being invaded and captured by the enemy
She was Byran’s kin. How come she felt like an outsider?
Thinking it over, Patricia forced a smile and joined in. “Byran, how come you didn’t let me try your
homemade wings?”
As she reached for a skewer, she was not willing to be outdone by Ellinor.
However, Byran pulled the plate away before Patricia could grab one.
Patricia’s face froze in embarrassment.
Byran looked worried. “These wings have gone cold, you can’t eat them! Don’t you remember? Your
stomach acts up when you eat cold food!”
Patricia was stunned for a second before accepting his concern and smiled, “You’re always looking out
for me. But you really should be more considerate of others too. It’s not good for Ellinor to eat cold food
either!”
Did Ellinor catch that?
Byran only fed her cold food.
Byran realized his previous statement might sound unfair, which he quickly explained to Ellinor.
“Don’t get me wrong, Ellinor! Patricia has been frail since she was a child and gets gastroenteritis
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeasily from cold food. It’s different for us healthy people, we can handle
To prove he wasn’t playing favorites, Byran picked up a skewer of cold wings and started eating.
Ellinor didn’t really care about this trivial matter.
Even if Byran did mean it, she didn’t mind Patricia was his kin after all, it’s only normal to treat her
differently
“Alright, if Ms. Howard can’t eat them, do I get all these wings?”
Byran couldn’t help but beam to see Ellinor so enthusiastic about his wings.
“Sure thing! If you like them, they’re all yours!”
So, Ellinor didn’t hesitate to take the plate of wings.
“Thanks! You can leave the wings, and you guys can go!”
Byran was taken aback
He didn’t want to leave For some reason, he was really enjoying hanging out with Ellinor. She was so
relatable and fun.
As he was trying to come up with an excuse to stay, Byran noticed something odd and asked. ‘Ellinor,
why are you wearing such a big towel around your neck?”
