Chapter 1248

Ellinor slammed the book she was reading shut, unable to bear it any longer.

“Mr. Howard, how many times do I have to say it? I’m a grown woman: I can take care of myself and look after my own health. I don’t need your excessive concern.”

Balfour knew his presence annoyed Ellinor, but he couldn’t help but worry.

Having a baby was a life-threatening risk for women. If something happened, how could he bear it?

But looking at her now, she wouldn’t follow him willingly.

Balfour considered everything for a moment and then compromised. “Alright, if you want to stay here, that’s fine. I’ll have someone come to look after you tomorrow, and I’ come to check on you every day.”

Ellinor was really annoyed. “There’s no need.”

“It’s decided then! If you won’t come with me, this is the best I can do. It’s the only way I’ll be at ease.” Balfour didn’t give her a chance to refuse. He stood up. “Rest well. I’ll come to see you tomorrow. Also, think about returning to the Howard family. You’ll have to go back someday.”
