Ellie pursed her lips and frowned, "Since when did this start?" 

"Since the day you left, Ahh God, don't remind me the number of times I asked him to follow the schedule you had arranged for him. You know how stubborn he is right? So he won't listen to anything that I say." Helplessly shaking her head, Patricia added, "It's easier to deal with my son than him." 

Just then Sebastian rushed inside the pantry and widened his eyes in shock when he saw Patricia talking to Ellie. 

After telling Noah not to tell Ellie about anything that had happened in her absence, he rushed downstairs to inform Patricia only to find out that she wasn't there. He tried to call her but it did not go through. So he decided to stay with Ellie and make sure that no one reveals the real truth to her.

Crossing her arms in the front, Ellie glared at him. She had no idea whether she should lash out at him or blame herself for leaving him alone and making him feel miserable.
