Chapter 848
Patricia saw Ellinor coming back. Although she was not feeling so hot inside, she still managed to put on a smile.
“Yep, just had a full medical checkup. Doc says I’m as fit as a fiddle.”
Ellinor nodded, “That’s good, once you’ve checked out, you can rest easy. I just worried that you might’ve
overdosed on saffron, which might affect your fertility.”
That comment made Patricia and everyone present feel a bit queasy
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPatricia had long been diagnosed as infertile; it was an open secret in their circle So Ellinor’s remark was like
rubbing salt in her wounds.
Patricia looked hurt and dejected, “Ellinor, you know I can’t have kids Are you mocking me?”
Byran, who just woke up, felt that Ellinor’s comment was way out of line. He said weakly, “Ellinor, you can’t treat my
sister like that.”
Ellinor ignored Byran and turned to Patricia, Tm sorry. I forgot about you losing your fertility because you saved my
husband. I didn’t mean it, you’re not mad, are you?”
Patricia thought Ellinor was deliberately poking fun at her.
But Ellinor got it wrong this time. Her words didn’t hurt Patricia; instead, they gave her a chance to play the victim.
Because Patricia was always looking for a chance to play poor me”.
As she looked at Theo, who was standing next to Ellinor, Patricia put on a wronged face and shook her head,
“Ellinor, I know you didn’t mean it, I’m not mad at you. I’m just envious of you. Envious that you can have your own
children, while I never can…”
As soon as she finished speaking her eyes turned red
Ellinor was dismissive, “Who knows, maybe one day you’ll find out you can actually have kids? So don’t feel down
and find a boyfriend and give it a go; who knows what might happen?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Ellinor! This time it was Balfour who spoke up, his tone a bit stern.
He felt guilty towards Pearl, his long-lost sister, and genuinely wanted to protect her
But as a mature man, he understood that for a woman, infertility was a lifelong regret and pain.
Patricia, who had been told from a young age that she couldn’t have children, had already suffered a huge blow
Ellinor’s remarks were just adding insult to injury.
When Patricia saw Balfour standing up for her again, the old hope that Balfour would unconditionally protect her
was reignited in her heart. So she took the opportunity to start crying and threw herself into Balfour’s arms.
This time, out of sympathy, Balfour hesitated for a moment but didn’t push her away.
