Chapter 1105
So, Theo had no worries, letting her eat her fill.
Seeing Theo leave with the kid, a faint smile appeared on Ellinor’s face.
She still felt a little hungry. Well, no harm in eating more!
The back–kitchen chefs at Howard Mountain Villa were top–notch, and the breakfast hit the spot.
However, her main beef was that she wasn’t alone. Balfour was sitting across from her, watching her eat. And it
was really getting on her nerves.
Balfour saw Theo leaving with Baber and squinted his eyes slightly. Being a cool cucumber, he quickly caught on.

Theo seemed even more aloof than him, but sometimes he could be understanding.
Maybe he was considering Balfour’s role as an uncle–in–law and preparing for possible future scenarios!
“Ellinor, anything else you fancy? I can have it made for you.” Balfour asked with concern.
Ellinor, however, wasn’t too pleased. She furrowed her brows and looked at him warily, “Enough! Mr. Howard, I

“Mr. Blanchet, considering the years of friendship between Patricia and you, could you help me get Patricia out of
prison? I promise, Patricia won’t interfere with you and Mrs. Mendoza anymore. Please, I beg you…”
Then, Theo’s cold voice sounded, “The emotional relationship between Patricia and me was a scam you
orchestrated. We don’t actually have any friendship. Mrs. Howard, out of respect for you as my elder, I try not to
say much. Don’t push me to say something unpleasant.”
“Mr. Blanchet, but my daughter Patricia is really innocent; she loves you so much…”
Theo said, “I’ve already been lenient by not holding you two accountable for deceiving me. What more do you want
from me?”
