Tears welled up in Patricia’s eyes as she looked up at her brother, “…I just gave him a bit of extra cash.
What’s the big deal?”
Balfour frowned, “Just a bit of extra cash?”
Patricia innocently nodded, “Yes! I asked him about the light and delicious dishes here, and he patiently
explained them to me for quite a while. But I didn’t order anything in the end and I felt like I had
troubled him, so I gave him some extra money”
Ellinor smirked, “Just now, Ms Howard, you said that Gavin advised you not to order too much to avoid

wanted to give him money, there was no need to do it so sneakily, right?”
Patncia knew that every word Ellinor said was to expose her, so she ignored her and quickly explained
to her brother,
“You know, I’ve developed a habit of tipping the waitstaff extra. I don’t see any problem with that. I gave
it to him secretly because I was worried his colleagues would see it and try to snatch it”
Balfour squinted at his sister’s innocent face, finding it hard to believe that she could be so conniving
Ellinor chuckled, “Mr. Howard, if you’re so easily convinced by Ms. Howard’s words, then I have nothing
more to say! Call the cops!”
At Ellinor’s words, Balfour frowned, then turned to the startled waiter, Gavin.
“You! Tell me! What exactly did you two talk about, and what did she give you?”
Gavin was about to answer Balfour’s question according to Patricia’s words.
At that moment, Ellinor tilted her head and reminded him with a smile, “Gavin, this is your last chance
to tell the truth. If you dare lie or try to deceive us, Mr. Howard will definitely call the police to investigate
until we find out who hurt his nephew. There will be no mercy!”
Gavin’s heart fluttered at her words, and he was truly scared by the escalating situation.
He only wanted to make a quick buck, but he never expected to be dragged into such a complicated
dispute.

over to…
Balfour’s eyes narrowed, “For what?”
Gavin paused, glancing nervously at Patricia.
Patricia was staring at him intensely, her eyes clearly warning him not to misspeak.
What could he do? Patricia had something on him.
Previously, Ms. Howard and her friends dined here. She witnessed him picking up a customer’s phone
from a blind spot of the surveillance camera and pocketing it. She recorded the whole thing.
Today, she used the incident of him stealing the customer’s phone and the allure of money to pressure
him into harming a child and blaming it on Ms. Mendoza.
He didn’t want to harm an innocent child and initially refused, but Ms. Howard threatened him with the
video of him stealing the customer’s phone.
If the owner found out he stole a customer’s phone, he’d definitely be furious and fire him.
