Chapter 791
So, Mrs. Howard took a moment, then turned to Ellinor and said, “Miss, can we have a little chat in private? I’ve got
some stuff to discuss with you!”
Ellinor responded with a smile, “Sure.”
Byran was floored upon hearing Ellinor’s agreement to converse with his mom without any explanation. “Mom,
actually she is…”
Ellinor cut him off, “Mr. Howard, you should be hitting the books. I’ll be back to check up on you.”
Byran was left speechless and very puzzled.
After watching Ellinor follow his mom out of the room, Byran was left with a head full of questions. He was clueless

teacher.
Ellinor followed Mrs. Howard into a vacant guestroom.
After closing the door, Mrs. Howard gave Ellinor a once-over before asking, “Miss, what’s your name?”
With a smile, Ellinor replied, “You can call me Ms. Mendoza.”
Mrs. Howard stood with her arms crossed and asked, ‘Ms. Mendoza, where did you graduate from? Can you tell me
about yourself?”
Ellinor truthfully responded, “I graduated from Creston University with flying colors. I should be able to tutor your
son well.”
Upon hearing Creston University, Mrs. Howard was secretly impressed. That was one of the best universities in the
country, accepting only the cream of the crop.
Mrs. Howard was satisfied with Ellinor’s academic credentials, then she asked, “How much did Balfour shell out to
get you to tutor my son?”
Ellinor maintained her smile, “Not too much. The exact amount is not something I can disclose.”
Mrs. Howard smirked, “No matter what he paid, I can multiply that by ten.”
Pretending to be surprised, Ellinor asked, ‘Mrs. Howard, I don’t get it. You and Mr. Howard are family, right? Why do
you want to pay twice for a tutor?”
Mrs. Howard stared at Ellinor, “Ms. Mendoza, be honest. Is Byran having you deliberately teach my son the wrong
information to make him stupid, so he can’t get into university?”
Ellinor kept her cool, “If I say no, Mrs. Howard, would you believe me?”

Mrs. Howard scoffed, “Do you think I would?”
With a shrug. Ellinor replied, “Since you wouldn’t believe me anyway, just go with your gut. There’s no need for me
to answer.”
Mrs. Howard squinted at Ellinor, “I don’t care whether Balfour wants you to guide my son in the right direction or
not. I’m willing to pay ten times the price as long as you can get my son into university. If you can get him into
Creston University, I’ll give you whatever you want.”
Ellinor blinked, “Whatever I want, really?”
Mrs. Howard replied confidently, “Ms. Mendoza, you’ve seen our circumstances. Do you think there’s anything I
can’t give you? As long as you can get my son into Creston University, nothing’s off the table!”
Ellinor’s lips curled into a smirk. She started walking forward, each step firm and resolute, until she was standing
close to Mrs. Howard.
They locked eyes as Ellinor’s twinkled with a sharp light, “What if I wanted your life?”
Ellinor’s request effortlessly diminished Mrs. Howard’s previous arrogance. She felt an indescribable fear and anger,
“What did you say?”
