Chapter 793

She just faked being sick to get her daughter to summon McNeil

Her daughter didn’t let her down, and actually brought him over.

McNeil did come, but as soon as he stepped into the room, he asked where she was feeling unwell and whether or

not he should call an ambulance.

She wasn’t actually feeling unwell; she was just faking it. If they really called an ambulance and couldn’t find

anything wrong, then she’d be in hot water.

So she just said her head was a little dizzy, and she felt no other discomfort.

Next, her husband, McNeil, pulled over a chair and sat by the bed to read a book. It was a very thick book, and he

was very focused on it.

Sometimes she wondered if her husband was too engrossed in his own world. He’d rather read than pay attention

to her?

Later, she couldn’t keep up the act anymore and said she was feeling much better and wanted to get some fresh

air.

McNeil didn’t say much about it.

How was this kind of marriage different from being a widow?

However, she couldn’t express her inner emptiness and physical needs to her daughter and could only helplessly

shake her head, “Don’t worry, your dad is reading in the room. Patri, what are you up to?”

Patricia was also very annoyed, “Mom, Baber is becoming more and more unruly. He cries as soon as I go in and

only wants to be with the nanny. It’s making me want to send him back to the orphanage!”

Mrs. Howard patted her daughter’s shoulder understandingly. “That’s not surprising. How could an adopted child be

close to you? Just ignore him and have your own child in the future!”

Her mother’s words startled Patricia. She quickly looked around to make sure no one was around, then quickly

pulled Mrs. Howard into the guest room and whispered, “Mom, keep your voice down. If people find out I don’t

actually have infertility problems, how will I ever bring up the topic with Theo in the future?”

Mrs. Howard laughed, “I know. I’m more careful than you! I’m pretty sure no one’s around. Everyone’s been called

to attend a banquet for a VIP today Speaking of which, I wonder what kind of VIP could make your grandparents act

so seriously!”

Patricia let out a sigh of relief, “I heard it’s someone who saved Grandpa’s life; we have to accompany them at

dinner tonight.”

Mrs. Howard was dismissive, “I wonder what kind of status this person really has that our whole family needs to

accompany them. Are they worth it?”

Patricia didn’t care about the guest, “Whoever they are, if my grandparents say we must accompany them, then

we must accompany them. It’s just a meal. Mom, my problem with Theo is the most important right now. I can’t

reach Theo on the phone anymore; it’s always redirected to his assistant. What should I do now?”

Mrs. Howard frowned, “Theo’s not taking your calls anymore? What happened? Hasn’t he always been at your beck

and call?”

Recently, Patricia had been run so ragged by the adopted child that she hadn’t had the chance to tell her mother

about what happened in the last few days. So she took this opportunity to recount everything to Mrs. Howard.

After hearing everything, Mrs. Howard squinted her eyes in a cunning manner, “So it’s because of Ellinor! She

managed to make Theo so obedient; it seems like she’s got her ways around men. Patri, you might have

underestimated her before.”

Patricia looked anxious, “Mom, I realize I might have underestimated her before, but now’s not the time to reflect

on my mistakes. You have to help me figure out a solution! If Theo keeps listening to Ellinor and stops taking my

calls and contacting me privately, how am I supposed to marry into the Blanchet family and help you gain some

dignity?”

Mrs. Howard put her hands on Patricia’s shoulders to comfort her, “Patri, don’t panic; let me think about it.”

Patricia couldn’t calm down at all, “Mom, you have to think fast! Ellinor’s still carrying Theo’s child in her belly. If she

really gives birth to Theo’s child, I’ll have no chance at all!”
