Chapter 949
Dean glanced at his granddaughter Patricia, who was sitting next to Xenia. Her eyes were red and swollen from
crying. He couldn’t help but feel a strong affection for her.
From a young age, Dean and his wife raised Patricia. Although she could be a bit emotionally stubborn at times, she
was still usually kind, considerate, and definitely not the lying type.
Seeing Dean wavering. Xenia seized the opportunity to speak, “What I said about Ellinor saving you isn’t as simple
as it seems. I think she planned it to get rid of Patricia, who could potentially compete with her for Mr. Blanchet. She
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmust have intended to use that opportunity to infiltrate the Howard family, get the inside scoop, and then cut off
Patricia’s contact with Mr. Blanchet completely”
She continued, “Turns out, her plan worked! After learning about how Patricia saved Mr. Blanchet from us, she used
some details that Patricia couldn’t recall to discredit Patricia’s life–saving act, and Patricia lost any chance of getting
close to Mr. Blanchet.”
She kept going. “Of course, we, the Howard family, wanted Patricia and Mr. Blanchet to cut ties. But we can’t doubt
Patricia just because of what Ellinor says My daughter is not the lying type as Ellinor claims! These past few days
Patricia has been crying at home because everyone misunderstands her. Her eyes are almost swollen from crying.”
But she did not stop there, “It’s one thing for Mr. Blanchet to believe Ellinor’s lies and ignore Patricia. But it’s
another for Balfour, who loves Patricia the most, to misunderstand Patricia because of Ellinor’s lies and ignore her.
She is heartbroken over her beloved brother’s attitude. So, I hope you can see Ellinor for who she truly is and not
misunderstand your only granddaughter because of her baseless words. Ellinor’s slandering of Patricial shows how
scheming she is! Now it’s been exposed that she’s cheated on her grades and had multiple abortions. You just can’t
trust a woman. who’s good at lying”
Hearing her mom defend her so staunchly, Patricia chimed in, wiping away her tears and saying with a wronged
expression, “Grandpa, Grandma, I’m innocent! I didn’t lie. Ellinor has been targeting me on purpose! Even my dad
and brother are ignoring me now. When I went to visit Byran at the hospital, he also ignored me. I feel so helpless.
The people who loved me the most are now ignoring me because of the nonsense from an outsider. I’m so sad and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdon’t know what to do.”
Her crying intensified. She rose from the couch and suddenly knelt on the floor, “Grandpa, grandma, you can’t treat
me like dad and Byran did! Otherwise, I really can’t breathe. I might not be able to live…”
Seeing her cry so hard, Dean and Alyssa couldn’t help but frown.
Dean said, “Patri, stand up first!”
Alyssa also comforted her, “Yes, Patri, stand up, then talk! The floor is cold!”
Seeing their concern for her, Patricia’s lips curled up slightly in a barely noticeable smile.
Just then, a servant came to notify them, “Mr. Howard is back, and he’s brought Ms. Mendoza with him.”
Xenia and Patricia exchanged glances. They didn’t expect Ellinor to come after them so soon. They left no trace of
their actions.
