Balfour squinted at the cellphone on the coffee table and picked it up to return Ellinor’s call.
After a few rings, the call was answered
“Ellinor, what’s up? Need something from your older brother?”
“Mr. Howard, did the auction house get back to you yet? Did they confirm the father-daughter relationship between
Thaddeus and Sophia?”

Balfour felt nothing but sympathy for his sister. His sister worried about the Blanchet Corporation even after getting
home, and that nonchalant man across from him knew nothing about her efforts. Not yet. Ellinor, you don’t need to

satisfy you.”
“Let me know as soon as there’s any progress.” Ellinor was somewhat anxious about this matter, always feeling
that Sophia wouldn’t be easily handled.
Balfour responded gently. “Sure thing. How are the kids?”
“They’re having dinner. They won’t be upstairs for a while
“You should also rest well and stop overthinking. If you ever get tired of staying with the Blanchets, feel free to
come back home. You and the children are always welcome.”
Ellinor fell silent.
Over the years, Balfour often suggested that she should come back home, but she always refused.
She knew that Balfour didn’t want her to stay with the Blanchets and wait for a man whose whereabouts were
unknown.
But she was willing to wait. Even if she were to leave the Blanchets one day, she would never stay with the Howard
family again.
She hadn’t forgotten how she and her mother were driven out of the Howard family’s mansion years ago.
“Mr. Howard, I won’t bother you anymore.”
She didn’t respond to Balfour and hung up the phone after saying this in a somewhat distant manner.
After hearing the busy tone from the phone, Balfour rubbed his temples.
His biggest wish now was for his sister to live a happy and carefree life without any more unexpected events.
After a moment of silence, Balfour returned his father’s call.

McNeil Howard’s tone was very gentle. “Balfour, where are you? Why don’t you come home on the weekends?”
Due to the disappearance of his mother and sister in the past, Balfour was always cold towards his father. “Is there
something you need?”
“Did you forget? Byran returned to the country today. Your grandparents and I just picked him up from the airport.
Come home; let’s have a family dinner to welcome Byran.”
“You guys go ahead. I’ve got something on today. I won’t be coming home.”
“Your brother hasn’t been home for three years; as his older brother, shouldn’t you at least show up?”
“I’ll be back tomorrow. I’ve gotta go now.”
After hanging up the phone, Balfour was filled with worry. He had forgotten that the little troublemaker was coming
home today.
For the past three years, he often visited Byran’s school. The school administrators always praised Byran’s quick
progress and diligent attitude. The changes in the little troublemaker quite surprised Balfour. He had initially
thought that Byran would give up after just a few days.
