Chapter 277
After hearing Patricia’s words, Theo’s gaze was glued to Ellinor, waiting for her response
He knew Ellinor grew up in the sticks, not quite friendly with the Mendoza family, but if she really
wanted to see her family now, he’d be up for helping her out
“Thanks for caring, but there’s no one left at home for me
Ellinor replied calmly
Patricia was visibly taken aback, “What? I’m sorry, Ellinor, I didn’t know…”
“It’s no biggre”
Ellinor smiled aloofly indifferent.
Having kin like the Mendoza family, it’s better to be without.
Seeing Ellinor not getting pissed, Patricia was touched, she stepped forward and gently held her

got to know each other, and ended up in the hospital! From now on, consider me your little sis.
Anything you need help with, hit me up”
She carefully held Ellinor’s allergic hand, then found it funny. “Ellinor your hand is swollen, and it’s
heartbreaking, but it looks kinda cute, like a cartoon hand!”
Ellinor quietly observed the affectionate Patricia, then looked at her own hand.
A thought struck her, like she’d stumbled upon the answer!

Other than Theo, only Patricia had touched her hand!
Twice
Outside the Blanchet family’s home, Patricia had grabbed her hand.
The first time, she pulled away immediately because it felt awkward.

Could this seemingly innocent girl have done something dodgy to her hand?
“Ellinor, we can keep each other company in the hospital these days, so it won’t be so lonely!” Patricia
said with a laugh
Ellinor looked at her innocent face, but didn’t respond.
Belinda said in confusion: “Hospitalization isn’t a fun trip; the doc said Ellinor needs to rest these next
couple of days; she might not have time to hang out with you”
Patricia paused, a little embarrassed, “Right… How could I see hospitalization as fun!”
Belinda didn’t mince words, “Maybe you’re so used to being sick that hospitalization has become a
norm for you!”
Patricia’s eyes flickered like a child who had done something wrong, and she towered her head in
shame.

Belinda mumbled, “…I wasn’t wrong though!”
Patricia glanced at her wristwatch, then looked up and said softly: “Theo, I should be heading back
after seeing Ellinor. Otherwise, my brother would worry.”
Theo just nodded, responding nonchalantly
After bidding Ellinor farewell, Patricia turned and headed for the door.
When she got to the hospital room door, she suddenly stopped and turned around, looking a bit lost,
Theo, shoot, I forgot the way to my room, could you walk me there?”
Theo didn’t say anything but turned around, ready to walk her there
However, as he was about to step forward, his hand was held by a swollen little hand.
Theo paused and turned back to look at Ellinor, who had stopped him, his eyes lit up…
