Chapter 762
The blue fireworks were already over, and the wind was starting to pick up
outside.
Due to the loud noise of the fireworks, people standing on the balcony didn’t notice Patricia’s arrival.
When everyone came back inside, they only saw Ellinor and Bartlett chatting on the couch, but Theo was nowhere
to be found.
Jonah sat down and asked, “Ellinor, where’s your guy?”
Ellinor gave a small smile, pointing towards the stairs, “He went upstairs.”
Belinda sat next to Ellinor, “What’s Theo doing upstairs? Leaving you here all alone!”
Ellinor took a small sip of her juice without responding
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBelinda, who was always full of energy, just finished asking about Theo, then took out her phone to show Ellinor the
blue fireworks she just captured, “Ellinor, what do you think of my shot?”
Ellinor took a glance Belinda had posted the video on her social media, and it got a lot of likes.
She nodded with a smile, “Yes, your photography skills are really good.”
Belinda, like a child who just got complimented, “Right? 1 think so too!”
Then she got busy responding to comments on her post
Balfour gracefully walked over, sat down next to Ellinor, and asked in a low voice, “Why did you leave halfway just
now? Didn’t you like the blue fireworks?”
Ellinor looked at him and calmly replied, “They were beautiful, thank you. How much did those fireworks cost? I’ll
pay for them along with the drinks when I leave.”
Balfour was taken aback by her response, and he frowned awkwardly. “Those fireworks were for your viewing.
There’s no need for you to pay”
Ellinor laughed, “No need to pay? Mr. Howard, you’re really generous. But I can’t just take advantage of you like
that, we don’t have any special relationship. How can I not pay? I must settle this later, otherwise, I won’t come
again!”
Balfour was speechless; he could only sigh and stop talking
Just then, a servant of the manor brought a blanket, as Balfour instructed.
Balfour took the blanket and gently handed it to Ellinor. “The wind has picked up, so it will be cold at night. The
windows were open for too long, so please use this blanket to keep warm.”
Ellinor gratefully accepted it, “Thank you.”
Then she passed the blanket to Belinda, “You’re not wearing much; don’t catch a cold.”
Belinda was busy replying to comments when the sudden warmth surprised her. Then she said with gratitude,

Ellinor, who was slightly younger than Belinda, patted her head like an elder, “No need to thank me; carry on with
your phone.”
Balfour fell silent.
What a shame! She wouldn’t even accept his kindness.
Not far away, Jonah and Kemp were sitting together, clinking glasses, and drinking.
Jonah leaned in and whispered to Kemp, “Kemp, have you noticed? Balfour’s acting weird today. He usually doesn’t
care about anything, so why is he so warm to Ellinor today?”
Kemp took a sip of his drink, gave him a nonchalant glance, and said, “Why are you so nosey?”
Jonah wanted to discuss things quietly with him, but his reaction disappointed him. He said with a sigh. “Ah! You’re
such a buzzkill!”
Kemp chuckled, “At least I’m more interesting than you. Why are you always meddling in other people’s business?”
