"What are you daydreaming about? Come on, let me do your makeup!"
Haillie gave another disdainful glance at Ellinor, her tone laced with sarcasm.
Ellinor sighed and couldn’t help but show her helplessness, obediently following Haillie to get her makeup done.
Just like that, Haillie took Ellinor to the backstage of the theater.
Standing still, Balfour's icy eyes swept over Ellinor's back, and his eyes slightly narrowed.
He didn't care about how Ellinor's performance on stage would turn out; he just had a vague feeling that Ellinor's reaction was a bit suspicious.
Wherever Ellinor went, things that upset people always seemed to happen.
He hoped that Ellinor wouldn't ruin his grandfather's birthday party.
If it weren't for soothing his sister Patricia's mood and getting her to check the injury on her foot, he wouldn't have allowed Ellinor to stay here, let alone perform on stage.
At this moment, Quinton, along with the Bagley family's doctor, also arrived.
"Mr. Howard, Dr. Tam is here; how is Ms. Howard's condition?"
After saying that, Quinton looked worriedly at Patricia, who was being held by his boss.
Balfour kept his composure, "She's hurt her foot pretty bad, and she can't walk anymore. Let him check Patricia first, see if she’s broken any bones."
"Ms. Howard, does it hurt here?" The doctor asked as he pressed on her ankle.
Patricia lied as she made a face that showed discomfort, "It still hurts a bit, but it's much better than before; it really hurt when I fell down the stairs."
"What about here?" The doctor pressed another part of her foot.
Patricia continued to act like it was painful.
After Dr. Tam thoroughly examined her, he frowned, stood up, and said, "Mr. Howard, Ms. Howard's foot is only sprained, not broken; you can rest assured, there's no major issue; applying some pain-relief cream will do.
However, it's best to let her avoid walking for a short time; she will gradually recover after resting for a while."
