Chapter 317
Balfour rubbed the bridge of his nose, feeling a little bit fired.
He had always been so fond of Patricia that he really felt like spoiling her sometimes. After getting what
she wanted, Patricia turned her head to look out the car window, a look of disdain on her face…….
She didn’t really care whether Balfour had her picture in his car, or if he thought about her when he was
driving, she just wanted to outdo Pearl!
Everyone said she was lucky, born as a beloved princess of the Howard family.
However, after all these years, her status within the Howard family hadn’t surpassed that of a child who
had been missing for over a decade!
Her father had spent a fortune building Pearl Moon in the expensive downtown area in memory of
Pearl.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd with Balfour, she was always second to the missing Pearl.
As a child, to win Balfour’s affection, she copied Pearl, even having a mole tattooed on her forehead
just like Pearl had, even though she didn’t like it at all.
Just because she was a daughter brought by her stepmother, Balfour didn’t like her when he was a kid,
so she had to copy Pearl’s habits and preferences to win a bit of Balfour’s sympathy, and that’s how

Patricia gripped Balfour’s hand, looking anxious, “Whenever I think of Ellinor, I get scared… I always
feel that she has a lot of hostility towards me, and now with what Haillie did, I am afraid she will
retaliate against me…
“Don’t be afraid, I will have someone protect you, won’t let anyone harm you.”
Balfour thought of Ellinor’s rude behavior when she ignored him, and felt a bit upset, that tough girl was

underestimated.
He had already lost one Pearl, he wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt Patri again.
At this moment, a sports car driving in the opposite direction….
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEllinor glanced at Theo who was focused on driving, feeling a bit complicated, she said, “Theo, thank
you.”
“Thank me for what?” The man glanced sideways at her.”
Thank you for helping me find a new witness in time today, otherwise this matter wouldn’t have been
resolved so quickly.”
“How do you know the new witness was found by me?”
“Uh…” The man’s sharp question left Ellinor speechless.
Theo never said he found the new witness.
In his cognition, she was just an ordinary villager, and there were actually no reasonable way to obtain
