Chapter 301
The cop was sweating bullets, trying to come up with a legit reason to explain to Mr. Blanchet why El arrest. From the previous confrontation, he'd figured out that Elinor was probably Mr. Blanchet's wife But Theo didn't say a word. He just sidestepped the cop and placed his cup on the bedside cabinet. The straw in the cup was all chewed up, with teeth marks clearly visible.
After setting down the cup. Theo stood by the bed, his gaze on Elinor complex and unreadable.
In the face of his silent stare, Elinor's nonchalant attitude shifted slightly.
She frowned a bit, glanced at him, then lowered her eyes, murmuring. “I didn't do it.”
His response was calm: “Mhm."
Elinor looked puzzled at him. What did he mean by that? Even with the evidence stacked against her Elinor furrowed her brows, shifting her gaze from him to the cop. “Officer, can I see my lawyer now?"
The cop nodded, “Yes.”
Elinor continued, “Then could you pass me my phone? I need to call my lawyer.”
Theo chimed in, “I have a lawyer. I can have them.”
Elinor cut him off, saying, “No, I have my own lawyer. Don't trouble yourself.”
Theo's brows knitted together, he coolly handed her the phone from the cabinet, then turned to leay As soon as Theo left, Patricia’s gaze followed him, trying to wriggle out of her brother's arms to follo Balfour didn't feel comfortable letting Patricia go alone. He shot Elinor a look, then left with Patricia. Once the cops had done their job and cuffed Elinor, they took off.

Seeing Bryan's hostile stance, Elinor arched an eyebrow and asked, “What are you going to do? Hit n Bryan snapped, “Elinor, I'm so disappointed in you!”
Elinor chuckled, “Well, be disappointed then!”
Bryan gritted his teeth. “You...”
“Bryan, let's not waste our time on her! The police will handle her!” Haillie walked over, shot Elinor a With everyone gone from the room, Elinor picked up the phone and dialed Chase.
“Chase, get the legal team to come to the hospital.”
Chase, puzzled, asked, “Boss, why are you at the hospital? What happened?”
“Nothing serious; just have the lawyer come alone. You don't need to tag along.”
"Alright, I got it!"
