"Auntie, I wanna go too!" Belinda stood up, wanting to follow Ellinor, but Byran blocked her by stretching his leg across the seat.
Annoyed, Belinda said, "Byran, what are you doing? Move it!"
Byran smirked, "You wanna get past? Well, why don't you hop over!"
Belinda helplessly said, "Uncle, look at him..."
Theo's gaze shifted from Ellinor's disappearing figure back to the two. With a stern look, they immediately quieted down, not daring to bicker anymore.
...
Bathroom.
Ellinor exited the toilet and went to the sink to wash her hands.
Seeing her coming out, Haillie handed her the coat she just took off, saying awkwardly, "Ellinor, could you hold my coat for a bit? I just realized there's nowhere to hang it in here."
Ellinor nodded, dried her hands with a paper towel, and took her coat.
Haillie also came out from the toilet in a bit of a while.
Washing her hands, she looked apologetically at Ellinor and said, "Ellinor, Byran has always been blunt. Don't take his words at the table to heart."
Ellinor raised an eyebrow, "Hmm? What did he say?"
Stunned, Haillie smiled, "If you don't care, that's great! Ellinor, you're so easy-going!"
Ellinor also smiled, "Am I? You flatter me."
Today's Haillie was different from the one at the bar last night, she was dressed more casually, and her makeup was exquisite, enhancing her natural beauty.
Ellinor thought this must be the sister that Byran mentioned. Byran tripped her yesterday for this sister, causing her to fall onto Theo.
