Chapter 723

Veronica was frowning and looked a tad upset. “Devin, all you care about is whether Ellinor is mad. Why don’t you

ask if I’m pissed off too?!”

Devin fell silent.

Feeling neglected, Veronica was annoyed with both Devin and the servants around them. “Huh! This house is

turning into the Mendoza family circus, with everyone siding with that outsider!”

Devin looked helpless, he hadn’t favored anyone. It was Ms. Blanchet’s fault for barging into Ellinor’s room in the

first place.

The servants, too, felt they hadn’t done anything wrong. They weren’t favoring Ellinor; they just thought Ms.

Blanchet had been too rash.

Veronica fumed more and more as she stormed back to her room, so she called Patricia.

The call quickly connected, and Patricia’s familiar and gentle voice echoed. “What’s up. Veronica?”

Veronica didn’t hide her anger. “Patricia, do you know?! Ellinor is acting all high and mighty! She’s parading around

the Blanchet villa like she’s the lady of the house!”

On the other side, Patricia paused for a moment before responding. “Veronica, don’t panic; tell me slowly, what

happened? Did Ellinor do something outrageous?”

Veronica thought for a moment, trying to stay calm. “She didn’t do anything specific; she just unfairly has my

brother wrapped around her little finger. Now everyone at home treats her like the lady of the house, they don’t

even look at me! She’s even using my brother’s support to treat me like a maid. I’m so mad!”

Pretending to sympathize, Patricia said, “What? She treats you like a maid? Veronica, I too think Ellinor’s attitude is

a bit over the top; isn’t Theo at home? Doesn’t he care?”

Veronica replied. “My brother has already gone to the office, and that woman, Ellinor, is comfortably sleeping in my

brother’s bedroom! Even if my brother was home, he would only help her, not me!

(Patricia, you don’t understand. My brother is now completely under Ellinor’s charm, he listens to everything she

says. I really don’t know what Ellinor did to my

brother!

Patricia, why don’t you control my brother? Are you planning to just give my brother to Ellinor? I really don’t want

her to be my brother’s wife!”

Patricia clenched her fist in jealousy after hearing Veronica say Ellinor was sleeping in Theo’s bedroom, but her tone

remained gentle. “Veronica, regardless of my relationship with your brother, we can’t let Ellinor disrespect you like

this. I’ll come over to your house and have a chat with Ellinor!”

Veronica felt touched. “Patricia, you’re really the best! Huh? Patricia, is there a child crying over there?”

Patricia sounded a little uncomfortable, “Uh… It’s Baber, he’s not feeling well and is a bit fussy. Veronica, I have to

hang up now. I’ll come over to your place later”

Veronica responded. “Okay, cool! Patricia, I’ll be waiting for you.”

After hanging up with Veronica, Patricia looked irritably at Baber, whose head was bandaged and was crying in the

nanny’s arms.

“Alright, Baber, stop crying! It’s breaking my heart! What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone go buy it for you,

okay?”

Patricia put on an overly concerned face, trying to soothe Baber. Otherwise, it would look weird if Baber kept

resisting her.

However, every time she approached Baber, his crying intensified.

The nanny was worried about Baber’s head wound, fearing that his intense crying would lead to a lack of oxygen.

She suggested, “Ms. Howard, maybe you shouldn’t get too close to Baber for now. Wait until his wound heals a bit,

then you can hold him.”

Patricia found the child annoying to begin with, and his intense crying was even more irritating. She waved her

hand, “Alright, take good care of him. I have to go out for a bit”

The nanny breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Okay, Ms. Howard, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Baber.”

Patricia glanced at the still crying Baber, thinking he was becoming more and more annoying. She had chosen him

just because he was cute, but she didn’t expect him to be such a handful. Too bad he couldn’t be returned like a

defective product. What a headache!
