Chapter 772
Patricia looked at him with clear eyes, “Bartlett, do you have a thing for Ellinor?”
Bartlett paused for a bit, “What makes you think that?”
Patricia replied. The first time I came downstairs, I saw you looking at a photo on your phone, and I saw you crop
out just Ellinor’s photo and save it in your private album. If you’re not into her, why would you secretly keep her
photo?”
Bartlett was caught off guard, and then he said frankly, “Well, yeah, I do like Ellinor. But she’s already taken; I
missed my chance, and I can’t force it.”
Patricia shook her head. “If you’re really into someone, you’ll always find a way. Bartlett, we could join forces!”
Bartlett looked like he was deep in thought as he gazed at Patricia with a hint of a smile on his lips, “Join forces?

In the car, Belinda was driving and blasting rock music, totally enjoying herself.
Ellinor and Theo were in the back, his hand tightly holding hers, never letting go..
He gently touched her head and spoke like he was praising a child, “You did well just now. You even stood up for
me.”
Ellinor lazily glanced at him, “Because you’re so indecisive! You’ve been morally blackmailed for so many years;
don’t you know how to fight back?”
Theo’s eyes darkened.
He knew Ellinor had a point. Over the years, he was indeed tied down by Patricia’s favor and couldn’t break free.
He was actually tired of it. Patricia’s feelings for him were obvious, and many of her actions had crossed the line..
But every time Patricia mentioned what she had lost to save him, he would bear with it out of guilt, trying to meet
her needs.
He sighed, “If she just saved my life, that would be one thing. But Patricia got an irreversible disease because she
saved me; she can never get pregnant. This is damage I can’t repay.”
Ellinor knew how important childbearing was to a woman, especially to a woman who loved children. Being told that
she could never have her own children was like being sentenced to death.
If Patricia was really unable to have kids because she saved him, then it was worth his lifelong care for her.
But she doubted that was the truth.
Ellinor turned her head and looked at him, “Can you tell me where Ms. Howard saved your life? Can you tell me
what happened?”
He thought for a moment, then quietly told her, “In a small mountain village in West Water Ridge, I was being
hunted and got seriously injured. I was hiding in the bushes when I was bitten by a poisonous snake and lost my

At that time, Patricia was vacationing at a nearby resort. She found me when she passed by. She sucked the poison
out of my wound and treated my
injuries.”
But because she didn’t completely clear the toxins in her body, she got poisoned and is now infertile.
“Serious injury? Where were you injured? Who dared to hunt you down?” Ellinor’s eyes tightened, and her brows
deeply furrowed.
Theo gently touched her head, “An enemy, I’ve fully recovered from the injury.”
Ellinor frowned, “Does that enemy still exist?”
Theo raised an eyebrow, “What? Are you going to avenge me?”
Ellinor looked serious, “I need to know more. I can’t risk becoming a widow at any time. If necessary, I can help you
eliminate that enemy!”
