Chapter 800

Ellinor calmly stated, “I’m the guest

Patricia made a face like she just smelled something foul “Guest? Would we ever invite you?”

Ellinor gave a small smile. Grandpa Dean and Grandma Alyssa warmly invited me today I couldn’t say no, so here I

What?

Shocked, Patricia blurted out. “My grandparents invited you? Are you the one who saved my grandpa?”

Ellinor replied evenly. “I wouldn’t say I’m a hero, but yes, I was indeed invited as a quest to your home”

Patricia was having none of it. She had made an effort to look her best for their guest, and now it turned out to be

her nemesis, Ellinorf

Ellinor was the one who saved her grandpa?

Suspicion soon crept into Patricia’s thoughts. She eyed Ellinor skeptically “Was this all part of your plan, Ellinor?

Setting a trap to get close to my grandpa, then pretending to save him?”

“Ms. Howard, you’re reading too much into this. I have no reason to get close to your grandpa, nor the time to set

up some elaborate scheme.”

Patricia frowned as her gaze on Ellinor darkened. She descended a few stairs to stand in front of her

With the stairs creating a height difference between them, Patricia tried to use her elevated position to intimidate

Ellinor, glaring down at her

But Ellinor just laughed. “What’s the plan, Ms. Howard? Are you going to tumble down the stairs and blame me, or

slap yourself and say it was me? Got any new tricks up your sleeve?”

Patricia gritted her teeth, her glare intensifying.

Just then, she remembered something her mother had recently told her.

She cooled down and then bowed. “Ellinor, I’ve done some inappropriate things to you because I was blinded by

love. I know I was wrong, and I apologize. I’m sorry!”

This apology came out of nowhere. Ellinor glanced around. Who was Patricia putting on a show for?

Patricia gave a deep sigh, her voice heavy with relief. “I realize now that Theo only has eyes for you. Nothing I do

will change that. So, I’ve decided not to get in the way of you and Theo anymore.

Ellinor, I’m over Theo. Let’s not fight over a guy anymore. Let’s call it water under the bridge, okay?”

Ellinor squinted her eyes. Was Patricia up to something new, or had she genuinely moved on from Theo?

Before Ellinor could respond, Patricia had already sidled up to her, linking her arm with Ellinor’s. “If you stay silent,

I’ll take it as a sign that you’ve forgiven me I misunderstood you the last time you visited. Let me make it up to you

by giving you a proper tour of our home.”

Ellinor calmly extricated her arm, maintaining a safe distance from Patricia. “That won’t be necessary. I have other

things to attend to.”

She didn’t like physical contact with strangers, especially with someone she disliked, like Patricia.

Tears welled up in Patricia’s eyes, making her look wronged “Ellinor, you still won’t forgive me? I swear, I genuinely

want to make peace with you. I’ll show you every room in our house. It might be boring, but our house has a

century-old history You won’t lose anything by taking a look.”

Every room?

Did that include the room her mom used to live in?

This thought piqued Ellinor’s interest. Regardless of Patricia’s motives today, she didn’t want to miss this

opportunity.
