Chapter 895
Patricia had been giving her the cold shoulder from the get-go, and now it was even worse!
Ellinor stared ahead with determined eyes and replied coolly. “Seems like we’re not heading in the same direction.”
Patricia laughed cordially. “Even if we’re not, I can take a detour and give you a lift! We know each other well enough. It’s no biggie to drop you off!”
“No need to go out of your way.”
“Ellinor, you’re not scared of me, are you?”
Ellinor chuckled lightly, “What would I be scared of?”
Patricia still had her best innocent smile on her face, “You’re afraid I’ll retaliate, aren’t you? Ha ha, relax, Ellinor. After what happened last time. even if I wanted to get back at you, I wouldn’t do it now, and definitely not in my car! That would just land me in hot water! I’m not that stupid to shoot myself in the foot!”
Ellinor gave her a sidelong glance, “So what’s your game?”
Patricia looked dead serious, “I just want to have a chat with you. Is that okay?”
Even though Ellinor knew Patricia’s sincerity was all for show, she still got in the car.
She was fed up with Patricia following her around, and she couldn’t find a ride anyway!
Once she got in the car, Ellinor let out a tired yawn, “I need to get home, so you might as well drop me off!”
Patricia awkwardly said, “Ellinor, I need to drop lunch off to my brother at the office first. Can I take you home after that?”
Ellinor knew it wouldn’t be a straight shot; she furrowed her brows and sighed, “Fine!”
Patricia patted the lunchbox next to her, grinning like a Cheshire cat, “My brother loves the food from this place. He always finishes everything when I bring it to him.”
Ellinor didn’t even bother to look up; she responded nonchalantly, “Oh, really?”
She knew from the start that Patricia wouldn’t have anything interesting to say!
Seeing Ellinor’s disinterested look, Patricia’s smile faded a bit. She was a tad peeved but quickly plastered a brighter smile on her face, “Ellinor, I’ve accepted the thing with Theo now! But how did you manage to change my brother’s attitude towards you? Care to share?”
Ellinor gave a light smile, “I’m curious too, Ms. Howard. Did your brother’s attitude towards me really change? From my perspective, it doesn’t seem like it!”
Patricia frowned slightly, trying to keep her sweet smile, “Ellinor, don’t play dumb! My brother clearly didn’t like you at first, but then he obviously warmed up to you, didn’t he?”
