Chapter 442


    Chapter 442


    In the month that Ellinor left the nchet family, barely anyone mentioned that man’s name in front of


    her.


    Chase and Ida seemed to have reached an agreement, deliberately avoiding any mention of Theo,


    even when it came to business dealings between the Crescent Society and the nchet Corporation.


    But in reality, she didn’t give a damn.


    A man was not enough to be her tabon.


    However, when she actually heard the name Theo, she still felt a bit revolted.


    “Mr. Rex can you not talk about that guy during mealtime?”


    Bartlett was taken aback, then smiled at her, “Alright, we won’t talk about other men while eating”


    Although she didn’t directly answer, her altitude was clear. She didn’t want to be associated with Theo


    anymore.


    Ellinor tried a sip of the signature mango juice from this barbecue restaurant. It was so refreshing that


    she had another hefty gulp before asking directly. “Mr. Rex, you said you could help me find Lady Lotus


    at the gallery. How do you n to do that?”


    Barlett also poured himself a ss of mango juice and took a leisurely sip. “Actually, I can’t really help


    you find Lady Lotus.”


    The hopeful light in Ellinor’s eyes suddenly dimmed.


    “Are you trying to trick me?”


    “If I can’t help you find Lady Lotus, you don’t want to have dinner with me?”


    “Well, I’m here already, so I’m going to finish the barbecue! It’s just that I don’t appreciate you tricking


    me into having dinner like this! Ellinor gave him a helpless look.


    Bartlett looked at her, his eyes filled with admiration and curiosity


    She might be a bit quirky, but she was very polite and handled things properly.


    Like now, though she expressed her displeasure directly, she didn’t make anyone ufortable.


    She was a very appealing girl.


    Bartlett decided to stop teasing her and get to the point, “Ellinor, I didn’t trick you. White I can’t help you


    find Lady Lotus, I can give you an important clue.”


    Ellinor’s eyes lit up again, “What important clue?”


    “If you want to find Lady Lotus, you don’t need to go through the painter Master Michell, there’s


    someone else who could be a more direct connection.”


    “Who?” Ellinor asked, her eyes serious.

    Bartlett smiled mysteriously, “Balfour Howard”


    Balfour? That guy who was full of prejudice against her?


    Ellinor felt unhappy and did not understand what Bartlett meant.


    “Why Balfour? What was his rtionship with Lady Lotus?”


    The conversation was briefly interrupted as the waiter served their meal.


    After the food was served and the waiter left, Bartlett put some beef and lettuce into Ellinor’s bowl


    before answering.


    “From what I know, Lady Lotus was a pen name used by Balfour’s mother. His house has many


    unpublished manuscripts of Lady Lotus. The most well–known works of Lady Lotus are also preserved


    by Balfour.”


    Ellinor’s face turnedplex, and the utensils in her hand seemed to slip and tter to the floor.


    Lady Lotus was a pen name used by Balfour’s mother?


    Balfour was Lady Lotus’s son?
