Chapter 333
Zachary’s wife finally recognized her, “Oh, it’s you, Ms. Howard!”
She had seen Ms. Howard earlier today at the police station, and her husband had also mentioned
something about her, hence she left quite an impression.
Zachary’s wife was very polite, “Ms. Howard, please have a seat, I’ll grab you a glass of water!”
Patricia glanced at the modest sofa in the cramped living space, her eyes filled with disdain. She
sneered, “don’t bother, I’m leaving soon!”
Zachary’s wife felt a bit embarrassed and flustered by her guest’s arrogant demeanour.
Without saying much, Patricia opened the black suitcase in her hand, placed it on the table and got
straight to the point, “Just keep Zachary quiet, I promise he’ll be out of jail soon! Then you guys can
leave the city. This money should be enough for a carefree life!” Seeing the full suitcase of cash,
Zachary’s wife was gobsmacked, “Ms. Howard, you… don’t worry! Zachary filled me in on everything

“Good to know.”
Patricia sneered, left the suitcase behind, and left Zachary’s house.
As soon as Patricia left Zachary’s house and got back in her car, she sprayed disinfectant all over
herself. The neighbourhood was as filthy as a slum, making her feel sick to her stomach!
Had she not come to shut them up with the money, she wouldn’t be caught dead in such a poor
neighbourhood!
She was worried about leaving a traceable record if she transferred the money through the bank.
That’s right! It was all her scheme, and Haillie was framed without a clue.
Here’s what happened…
That day, after returning to the country, she surprised Theo at the Pearl Moon.
But Theo left her to find Ellinor!
She went after Theo, but instead of finding him, she bumped into Ellinor, the one who made Theo ditch
her, by the Trent River Bund!
She had heard about Ellinor’s life after marrying into the Blanchet family while she was abroad, and
started to be wary…
So she came up with a plan, using the guy who was distributing flyers to Ellinor for a conspiracy.
Yet, Ellinor managed to crack her plan in the end!
But Patricia is always one step ahead, never caught off guard.
She had provided Zachary with several hypothetical stories and even showed him Haillie’s picture.
She told Zachary that if anything unexpected happened, he should immediately point the finger at
Haillie. This wouldn’t affect his final benefits, otherwise, he’d get nothing, and his wife and son would
face retaliation!
What a pity, she had to sacrifice her loyal friend Haillie, losing a potential ally!
Just then, Patricia’s phone rang. It was a call from Balfour Howard.

Patricia answered the phone sweetly, “Brother?”
Balfour’s concerned voice came through, “Patri, dinner’s ready at home. Grandpa and Grandma are
here, and mom and dad are waiting for you to eat together, why did you go out again?”
“Brother, I just got back, some friends I haven’t seen in a long time wanted to meet up. Don’t worry,
they’re all girls, and I’ll be fine. I got it, I’ll get home early!”
After hanging up the phone, Patricia coldly tossed her phone onto the passenger seat.
Then she took out a pack of cigarettes, deftly lit one, her smoking figure contrasting sharply with her
usual innocent image.
Patricia checked the time and smirked confidently. By now, Ellinor must be freaking out from the online
attacks, right?
What if Ellinor had uncovered Zachary’s plan?
She has plenty of other ways to deal with Ellinor!
As long as she can completely ruin Ellinor’s reputation, it’s game over!
Even if Theo has feelings for Ellinor, would the elders of the Blanchet family accept a girl with a bad
character and constant scandals as Ellinor? Ellinor, just wait to be kicked out by the Blanchet family!
A country girl dares to compete with her, Patricia, for a man? As if she could!
