So, she was hoping Balfour would stick up for her and give Ellinor a piece of his mind.
But Balfour just gave her a stern look and said coldly, "If a guest doesn't want to drink, they don't have to. You're not going to force her, are you?"
"I didn't mean..." Patricia was even more embarrassed. Her brother, Balfour, wasn't backing her up.
That damn Ellinor! What she did just now was definitely on purpose!
Xenia was also pissed off by Ellinor's repeated tricks, but what she was more worried about now was her daughter's health.
"Patri, did you forget to take your vitamins today?" Xenia reminded her.
Snapping back to reality, Patricia realized what her mom meant right away, "Right! I forgot; no wonder I've been feeling a bit off! Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and Balfour, you guys keep eating; I'll go take some vitamins and then come back down to join you!"
With that, she turned around and left in a hurry.
Ellinor kept eating the chicken wing that Alyssa gave her with a slight smile on her face as she watched Patricia's retreating figure.
If she wasn't mistaken, Patricia was probably throwing up in the bathroom.
There must have been something she didn't know about in that glass of pomegranate juice.
They wouldn't be so stupid as to openly poison her and risk their own futures.
So, there was probably something harmful to the baby in that glass of pomegranate juice. Patricia had been wanting to hurt her unborn child for a while now.
Ellinor put down the chicken wing and wiped her hands, then she got up and said, "Excuse me, everyone, I'm going to use the restroom."
