Ellinor flashed Patricia a smile and said. “Ms. Howard, I’ve already stripped off the costume and left it backstage at the makeup station. Make sure someone scoops it up.
I reckon this finely made costume is bespoke, right? I’d suggest you send someone to check it out now If it’s lost or damaged later, don’t point fingers at mer
Her words were light as a feather, but suddenly, the air got thick
Patricia and Haillie’s faces stiffened. They didn’t know how to respond just shot Ellinor a dirty look, then glanced nervously at old man Bagley
Old man Bagley, previously friendly, now looked grim. He glanced at the innocent Patricia in her wheelchair, then at Ellinor, who had removed her stage makeup, his brow
furrowed in deep thought.
Ellinor just grinned at old man Bagley. Seeing no response from Patricia, she continued
“Ms Howard, you’re not saying anything? Silence is golden, huh? If there’s no problem, I’ll be on my way Later!”
After saying her piece, she respectfully bowed to old man Bagley and his wife. “Mr. and Mrs. Bagley, it was an honor to attend your party. I’ll take my leave now Goodbye”
With that, she turned to leave
Suddenly, Mrs Bagley came to, reaching out to stop Ellinor. “It’s Marlinie. She’s Marlinie. Don’t go, Marlinie”
Ellinor paused slightly at the name Marlinie but didn’t stop walking or turn to look at Mrs. Bagley
Mrs Bagley’s outburst snapped Mr. Bagley back to reality. He steadied his wife, then called out to Ellinor. “Ms. Mendoza, wait!”
Ellinor stopped, turned, and smiled. “Mr. Bagley, you called?”
Mr Bagley asked her, “From what you said earlier, you just took off the costume?”
Ellinor nodded “Yes”
Mr. Bagley’s brow furrowed. “So, the one who was singing and performing on stage was actually you?”
Ellinor raised an eyebrow but didn’t immediately reply. Instead, she glanced at Patricia in her wheelchair.
Patricia was pale, staring at Ellinor with a calm but threatening gaze.
She was warning Ellinor not to spill the beans
But Ellinor was unfazed by Patricia’s look and truthfully answered Mr. Bagley. “Yes, it was me on stage. Sorry for the trouble.”
Upon learning the truth, Mr. Bagley’s face darkened. His fondness for Patricia instantly vanished, replaced by a deep revulsion. He was also livid at himself for so readily believing a lie.
Mr. Bagley shot a harsh glare at Patricia and Haillie, who had just been performing together. He grunted heavily, then coldly asked Patricia, “Didn’t you just claim that the person performing on stage was you?”
