Chapter 442
In the month that Ellinor left the Blanchet 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 Blanchet Corporation.
But in reality, she didn’t give a damn.
A man was not enough to become 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”

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 plan to do that?”
Barlett also poured himself a glass 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 uncomfortable.
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.

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 relationship 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 turned complex, and the utensils in her hand seemed to slip and clatter to the floor.
Lady Lotus was a pen name used by Balfour’s mother?
Balfour was Lady Lotus’s son?
