Chapter 688

Patricia suddenly knelt on the ground, holding the unconscious Baber in her arms, and began sobbing

uncontrollably.

“Baber, my Baber, wake up! Open your eyes and look at me! I’m sorry, I was too late! Baber!”

Ellinor, a pregnant woman, was deeply saddened by the scene in front of her

At the same time, she was still on guard, scanning the surroundings to make sure there was no one else in the

storage room.

Patricia’s screams quickly attracted a crowd.

“Patri, what’s going on?”

Balfour quickly rushed in, his face changing upon seeing the situation.

Patricia was crying uncontrollably while holding the child, almost unable to breathe, “Baber has stopped breathing!”

Balfour quickly crouched down and reached out to check the child’s breath, but he couldn’t feel any signs of life. His

hand trembled slightly, and he closed his eyes in sorrow, taking a deep breath.

Theo walked in next, his pupils contracting when he saw the scene, ‘What happened?”

Hearing his voice, Patricia looked up with tears streaming down her face. “Theo, Baber… has been killed!”

Theo frowned and was stunned for a moment. He then knelt down and touched Baber’s little hand. It was still

warm, but he had stopped breathing.

It hadn’t been that long since he helped Patricia adopt this child, and although there was no blood relation, he felt

heartbroken.

He was a very well-behaved child and not even two years old yet.

Balfour suddenly opened his eyes, snapping back to reality, and stood up to command his servants.

“Go investigate! Now! Find out who was brave enough to commit murder in our home. I’ll have their entire family

killed!”

“Yes!”

Some people left to follow his orders, while the rest stayed to mourn for the deceased child

At that moment, the emotional Patricia suddenly cried out again, “Don’t bother investigating, the murderer is here,

I saw everything!”

As soon as Patricia said this, there was a shock around her, and everyone exchanged glances

Balfour said, “Patri, you saw it? Tell me, who was it?”

Patricia’s tear-filled eyes suddenly turned toward Ellinor in pain and anger, “It was her!”

Ellinor, who had been silently praying for the poor child, was suddenly accused of being the murderer. She frowned

in surprise, but after seeing Patricia’s convincing performance, she wasn’t too surprised.

Balfour was taken aback, his angry gaze fell coldly on Ellinor, “You did this?!”

Theo, who had been crouching next to Baber, also turned to look at her. His mysterious, deep eyes revealed no

emotion, leaving his stance unclear.

The crowd was filled with anger, glaring at Ellinor as the ‘criminal’ who had hurt a child.

Because of Patricia, Ellinor immediately became the target of everyone’s anger. She regained her composure and

stated calmly, “I didn’t do it.”

Patricia looked at her sorrowfully, “Ellinor, the murder weapon is still in your hand, how can you deny it?”
