Chapter 639
The man was in so much pain that tears started streaming down his face. “Ouch! Sir, you’re about to break my
arm. What are you doing? Let go of mel Didn’t I already give you the pretty girl? Why are you still holding on to
me?”
Balfour replied calmly. “What did you just say?”
The sleazy man shifted his eyes nervously. “I… I didn’t say anything about you…”
Balfour didn’t say anything and just tightened his grip.
The man yelped in pain, begging for mercy, “I was wrong! I was wrong. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said such
things… I shouldn’t have disrespected women. The one who should be reprimanded is me I’m so shameless”

Then he looked down at the man and said, “You need to respect others when you speak, and what you just did was
harassment”
With that, he disdainfully shook his hand and walked out of the elevator.
Quinton followed closely
Ellinor also followed behind Quinton, stepping over the man’s broken arm and out of the elevator.
The man struggled to get up from the elevator floor, cradling his immobile arm, his face streaked with tears. His
initial confidence and frivolity were gone, replaced by a pitiful appearance
Outside the hotel lobby, Ellinor caught up with Balfour and said politely. “Thank you for stepping in earlier.”
Balfour glanced at her. “You’re overthinking it. I just couldn’t stand seeing someone misbehaving in public.”
Ellinor wasn’t surprised, she nodded, “Yes, I know you didn’t do it for me, but I did benefit from it, so I should thank
you”
Actually, even if Balfour hadn’t stepped in, she would’ve given that sleazy man a good beating once the elevator
doors opened.
Now he had just saved her the trouble.
But she should still express her gratitude because he did help her.
She wanted to set a good example for her unborn child.
Balfour scrutinized her, “What are you really doing in K city?”
Of course. Ellinor couldn’t tell him that she was here for a hacker conference, so she smiled and half-truthfully
replied, “I have a friend who’s hospitalized in K city, I’m going to visit him. Mr. Howard, I’m in a bit of a hurry. I’ll be

Balfour squinted suspiciously as he watched Ellinor hurriedly hail a taxi and leave.
He hoped that Ms. Mendoza was really just here to visit a sick friend and not for any other reasons.
After Ellinor left in the taxi, Quinton came up and asked with concern, “Mr. Howard, you used a lot of force on that
man, is your arm okay?”
Balfour had recently broken his arm in a fight with Theo and it wasn’t fully healed yet. He had temporarily removed
the cast to inspect same important projects.
In his encounter with the bully, he had used that arm, and he wondered if it would worsen his injury.
“I’m fine” Balfour replied, not seeming to be bothered by it. But as he moved his arm, his brows furrowed from the
pain.
It hurt a lot
He didn’t understand why he had gotten involved in Ellinor’s business. But strangely, it felt like an instinct. He just
couldn’t stand seeing her being bullied.
