“Don’t worry, I won’t be a thorn in your side anymore.”
Byran uttered these words with a hardened expression. His fists clenched tightly, as if he had made a monumental decision.
Upon hearing this, Ida's expression didn't change, but after a moment, her lips curled slightly into a smirk. "That's good to hear."
Then, without another word, she stood up and returned to Ellinor's hospital room.
Byran hung his head low, deflated like a punctured basketball, devoid of his usual vitality.
"What brings you here?"
After hearing his brother's voice, Byran lifted his head.
Balfour had returned, and upon seeing his younger brother sitting by the door, he approached and asked sternly.
Byran responded in a dispirited tone. "I heard our sister was about to give birth, so I rushed over to check on her."
Balfour frowned. He was afraid that his little brother would cause trouble. "Once you've seen her, go home. Get your stuff packed, and next week, I'll have Quinton take you abroad."
Byran nodded and then turned his gaze towards Ellinor's room with a complex expression before standing up and leaving with a dejected air.
After seeing his brother off, Balfour entered Ellinor's room.
Ellinor had fallen back into a deep sleep due to her weakness.
Upon seeing Balfour enter, Ida glanced at Ellinor, who was even frowning in her sleep. After confirming that she was still asleep, she asked, "Mr. Howard, any news of Theo?"
Balfour shook his head grimly. "No leads yet."
Ida's brow furrowed. Where on earth could Mr. Blanchet have taken their first child?!
