Chapter 1029
Patricia turned to Dean again and looked at him with eyes filled with sorrow. “Grandpa… I didn’t… It was Ellinor…
She tricked me into saying those things.”
Dean turned away, looking disappointed. He refused to acknowledge the black sheep in his proud family.
Patricia had lost all sympathy from her family and friends, and she was on the verge of a total breakdown.
When a person hit rock bottom, they could lose all reason. Patricia pointed at Ellinor, who was standing next to
Alyssa, looking indifferent.

Dean and Alyssa looked at Patricia, who was beyond reason, and frowned.
Ellinor looked down at her and smirked. “Unscathed? Patricia, which eye of yours sees me unscathed? Am I not
injured?”
As she said this, she pointed to the bandage wrapped around her forehead.
Patricia glared at her and said, “Ellinor, you only got a little hurt; why did you have to fake your death? Just to make
me spill everything, right?” Ellinor didn’t deny it, nodding. “Yes, I faked my death to make you reveal your
thoughts.”
Patricia’s eyes lit up, and she quickly turned her pitiful eyes to Dean and Alyssa. “Grandpa, Grandma, Brother, did
you hear that? Ellinor admitted it; she tricked me into saying those things!”
But Dean, Alyssa, and Balfour didn’t harbor any doubts about Ellinor; they only looked at Patricia, who seemed
beyond hope.
Ellinor calmly said, “Yes, I led you on. I made you think I was dead, so you’d lower your guard and reveal your true
feelings. Ms. Howard, the words you said were not out of anger but your deepest desires, weren’t they?”
Patricia, humiliated and angry, lunged at Ellinor. “No! It was you who set me up and led me on; it’s all your fault!”
Ellinor stepped back just in time to avoid the wild Patricia.
At that moment, Balfour stepped forward, shielding Ellinor and kicking the crazed Patricia away.
Patricia fell to the ground and struggled to get up, but it didn’t stop her madness. She screamed, “Brother, you

would kick their own sister for a stranger? And you say you’re not a hypocrite! Do you think you’re a good
brother?”
Balfour’s angry eyes were filled with disbelief. “It’s my fault for not educating you well and letting you become like
this! Now that you’re grown up, I can’t educate you anymore; let those who can educate you do it!”
With that, Balfour turned to the door and said, “Officers, please come in. Help us solve this problem. Take her away
for reformation so she can take the punishment she deserves.”
Patricia froze. The police were here?
She instinctively looked towards the door.
