He couldn't express his feelings and was always worried about Ellinor being alone and unsafe.
Balfour turned around and asked her, "You’ve got my number, right?"
"Yeah, I saved your number."
"Good, call me if anything happens before I get back."
"Alright."
Only then did Balfour actually leave, his tall figure disappearing into the bustling crowd.
And just now, when Balfour came in with Ellinor, Haillie and Patricia, who were chatting on the stairs, saw everything and felt uncomfortable.
Patricia forced a smile, "Looks like Balfour really cares about Ellinor! That jacket she's wearing, I gave it to Balfour a few days ago!"
The jacket was originally for Theo, but he didn't accept it. She felt disappointed and thought it would be a waste to throw it away, so she gave it to Balfour.
After all, Balfour and Theo were about the same size, so it was not a big deal.
But now seeing that jacket on Ellinor made Patricia feel really uncomfortable.
Why would Balfour give Ellinor his jacket? Wasn't Balfour supposed to hate Ellinor?
