Chapter 349
Balfour frowned, slamming the influencer’s phone onto the table and glaring at Byran with
disappointment
“You don’t study hard, but you do these hacker things on the Internet! Do you think that as long as you
learn some basic skills, you can do evil without being discovered? If you’re gonna pull off these uncool
stunts, at least remember to not leave criminal evidencel”
Byran blinked back tears, his eyes reddening. “I admit I was involved with the hacking, but that video of
Ellinor wasn’t edited or spread by me. I never meant to hurt hert
“You still deny it in the face of hard evidence?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I’m not denying I truly didn’t do it!”
Balfour was clearly agitated, “Quinton, take him back to his room. No food until he admits his mistake!”
Quinton obviously hesitated, but finally obeyed,
as ordered‘ Byran wiped the tears that were about to flow with his arm, and said stubbornly I won’t eat
it! You are a fool. You misunderstood Ellinor before, and now you’re misunderstanding me! Someday,
you’ll be misunderstood too!”
Worried that Byran would further infuriate Balfour, Quinton quickly ushered him out.
Seeing this, Patricia breathed a sigh of relief, a smirk playing on her lips. She was thoroughly satisfied.
This way, Balfour wouldn’t suspect her anymore
While Byran was in Balfour’s study, she had quickly tampered with Byran’s computer system before
Quinton brought in the investigators.
All the evidence Quinton had found was planted by her
She had to do this She couldn’t let Balfour know the truth, only to make the innocent Byran a
scapegoat!
It was a pity that she hadn’t completely blackened Ellinor’s name this time.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Patricia feigned concern, “About Byran…”
Balfour waved her off, “He’s old enough to take responsibility for his actions. I’ll handle this. You don’t
need to worry, go rest.”
“Alright then, you should rest too!” Patricia sighed, feigning helplessness, and left
After settling Byran, Quinton returned, worried, “Mr. Howard, Mr. Blanchet has many resources. Even
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthough Byran hid his IP Mr. Blanchet could still trace it. If he misunderstands and thinks you did it…”
Balfour raised an eyebrow, “So what if he thinks it was me?”
“I just think we should avoid unnecessary conflicts with the Blanchet family. The feud between our
elders is already deep enough. It’s even affecting Miss Patricia’s marriage. If the feud escalates, Miss
Howard, caught in the middle, would suffer even more… Today’s incident, after all, was Byran’s doing.”
Balfour understood that Patricia still carried a torch for Theo, and this might last a lifetime.
Considering Patricia’s feelings for Theo, he had to show some respect to the Blanchet family.
Rubbing his temples, he instructed, “Tomorrow morning, take Byran to the Blanchets to apologize and
explain the situation. Hand over the original video to Theo. If he’s still not satisfied, let him come to me.”
Quinton nodded, “Yes, sir.”
