Tracy tugged at Arnold's arm, full of grievance and anger. "Arnold, Ellinor has picked up some bad habits. Even though she's now in Greenhaven, she isn't focused on her career. She's just thinking about cutting corners and sucking up to the big shots. When she saw that Mr. Blanchet wanted to marry Sheila, she got jealous and wanted to steal her thunder. Because of that, Sheila had to quit the entertainment industry and her career went down the drain. She even lost her chance at a lovely marriage. Ah..."
With that, Tracy wiped away a tear, feeling sorry for Sheila's predicament.
Arnold wasn't feeling much better, and his brow furrowed in concern.
He had been listening to Patricia recount the story with a frown on his face. After hearing the reason, he was filled with anger. But he was more rational and cautious than Tracy and her daughter.
He eyed Patricia, who had suddenly appeared in their home. She was beautiful, with a classy demeanor, and dressed in designer clothes. She looked every bit like the daughter of a wealthy family.
So, Arnold asked in confusion, "Can you tell me who you are? Why do you know so much about the Blanchet family? And why did you go out of your way to tell us all this? What's your game?"
Patricia wasn't surprised by the question. She was prepared for it and answered with a calm smile.
"Who I am doesn't matter. I just can't stand Ellinor gaining things that aren't rightfully hers. I came here out of goodwill to tell you and your family, hoping that Miss Sheila can reclaim what's rightfully hers sooner. Everything I said is true, and if you don't believe me, you can go to the Blanchet family anytime and see if Ellinor is playing Mrs. Blanchet."
