    Chapter 502


    “Ellinor, I knew it was you!”


    Ellinor was stunned to see Bartlett Rex’s handsome face for a moment and then breathed a sigh of


    relief, “So it’s you!”


    Bartlett smiled, “What’s the matter? Who did you think it was?”

    “Nothing; you just scared me a bit by popping up out of nowhere.”


    Was she scared that Theo woulde back to find her?


    She was overthinking things.


    Bartlett gracefully walked over to her, “Ellinor, do you remember thest time we met? That day I asked


    you when we could meet again, and you said it depended on fate. Today we met here; doesn’t this


    mean it’s fate for us to be together?”


    Ellinor scoffed. “Well, it’s quite a coincidence.”


    Bartlett feigned dissatisfaction and furrowed his eyebrows, “You sound so nonchnt! Aren’t you happy


    at all to see me?”


    Ellinor yawned, “Am I supposed to feel happy?”


    Bartlett sighed. He suddenly leaned closer to her, “But I feel really happy to see you!”


    Ellinor showed no expression, “Oh, really?”


    Bartlett’s affectionate eyes stared at her for a good half a minute, but it didn’t move her at all.

    He obviously felt a bit disappointed, but he still smiled, “Ellinor, the previous times I saw you, you were


    always casually dressed. This is the first time I’ve seen you dressed up so nicely; you look beautiful.”


    “Thanks.”


    Ellinor went downstairs and looked around, but couldn’t find any more quiet spots in the banquet hall;


    every couch or seating area was upied with people chatting.


    She didn’t want to disturb others or be the topic of their conversation.


    As she came down from upstairs, Bartlett, looking rxed, was still following her. She didn’t know if he


    had anything to do.


    Ellinor turned her head to ask him, “Bartlett, have you seen Balfour?”


    Bartlett raised his eyebrows, “Why do you need to see Balfour?”


    “He’s my boss now. I’m his secretary and I came here with him today.”


    Bartlett seemed quite surprised, “Ellinor, when did you be Balfour’s secretary?”


    “Just a couple of days ago.”


    “Hmm? Is it for Lady Lotus’s painting?” Bartlett looked at her.


    It was Bartlett who told her about the rtionship between Lady Lotus and Balfour, so Ellinor didn’t n


    to hide her purpose from. Bartlett, in fact, she couldn’t.


    “Exactly! Please don’t b about this in front of Mr. Howard.”


    “I certainly won’t.” Bartlett chuckled.


    “Thanks, Mr. Bartlett!”


    “Just call me Bartlett!”


    Ellinor thought for a moment. Considering the urate information Bartlett provided, she decided to go


    along with his wish, “Alright then! Thanks, Bartlett.”
