“Hold up!”
Ellinor immediately stopped her
The red wine Patncia was about to drink halted at her lips, and she asked in surprise, ‘What’s up, Ellinor?”
Ellinor seemed a bit worried, “I remember Ms. Howard has a cold constitution, why are you drinking iced wine? You
could have this room temperature juice with me that Mrs. Howard prepared especially for us”
Patricia laughed awkwardly, “Ellinor, you stick to your juice. I want to toast you, so how can I replace wine with
juice? This cold constitution is an old problem of mine, having a bit of wine occasionally is no big deal.”
Ellinor disagreed. “You toast me with wine, and I respond with juice, which might seem insincere. How about we

After saying so, Ellinor was about to put down the juice in her hand.
After seeing this, Xenia and Patricia became extremely anxious.
If Ellinor didn’t drink the juice, wouldn’t their efforts be wasted?
Finding such a good opportunity again would not be easy.
Patricia forced a smile, “I think you make a good point. Ellinor, I’ll join you in drinking juice then! Mom, pour me a
glass of juice too, I want to thank Ellinor for saving Grandpa’s life”
Xenia was taken aback, she didn’t expect her daughter to make such a decision.
This juice was mixed with a large amount of saffron, it was harmful to a girl’s health.
Ellinor smiled, “Now I can comfortably toast with Ms. Howard. Mrs. Howard, why haven’t you poured Ms. Howard a
glass of juice yet?”
Xenia came back to reality. She awkwardly smiled and poured her daughter a glass of juice.
“Mom, pour me the juice quickly! Ellinor has been waiting for a long time.” Patricia had decided to induce Ellinor to
have a miscarriage today. She herself wasn’t pregnant, so making sure Ellinor drank it was more important.
At this point, success was within reach. Xenia thought for a moment, then poured her daughter a glass of juice
Patricia knew she couldn’t back down now, so she picked up the glass of pomegranate juice without hesitation and
said to Ellinor, ‘Ellinor, cheers!”
Ellinor also raised the glass of pomegranate juice, smiling. “Cheers!”
Patricia drank it all in one go, just thinking about Ellinor having a miscarriage made her feel good.
However, Ellinor didn’t chug like her, she just took a gentle sip of the pomegranate juice, then wiped her mouth and

Patricia seemed a bit unhappy to see this, ‘Ellinor, I finished a whole glass, why did you only take a tiny sip?”
Ellinor gave an awkward smile, “I thought ‘cheers’ was just a formality, I didn’t expect Ms. Howard to actually finish
the whole drink.”
Patricia bit her lip in slight dissatisfaction, I finished mine, and Ellinor, you only had a bit; is that fair?”
Ellinor put down the glass of juice, sat down quietly, and said helplessly. “It’s very good, but I can’t drink anymore
because I want to save my appetite for more food. Grandpa Dean and Grandma Alyssa have prepared so much
delicious food for me today that if I drink that glass of juice, I won’t be able to eat anything”
Patricia was so angry that she almost lost her mind, “You…”
Dean interjected, “Ellinor is right, why drink so much juice? Ellinor, come on, eat more, look at all the delicious food
we have!”
Patricia felt very wronged, ‘I was so sincerel Ellinor, how could you do this? Balfour, look at…
She drank a large glass of pomegranate juice mixed with saffron in order to make Ellinor drink with her. She
disregarded her own health, but in the end, Elnor only took sip!
