Most of those who caught up in the heated discussion were women, including A–list celebs,
influencers, and some high–born ladies from well–known
families.
Their murmuring made Bartlett uncomfortable. He shot a disgruntled glance at the chattering crowd
before turning to Ellinor with a softened voice.
“Ellinor, it’s a madhouse down here. Let’s go upstairs. I’ll grab a towel for you to dry your hair.”
“Alright, thanks.”
Ellinor accepted Bartlett’s offer, as she too didn’t fancy being the topic of gossip. The noise was giving
her a headache, so she followed Bartlett up the
stairs
On their way up, Bartlett gave Ellinor a side glance. His eyes, always filled with a smile, seemed to
bear a thought. “Ellinor, where’s Theo? Why’d he let you
come in alone?”
Ellinor replied with a calm face, “He’s outside, probably still fussing over his life–saver, Ms. Howard.”
Bartlett detected a hint of bitterness in her seemingly nonchalant tone. “Oh? Are you two having issues
over Ms. Howard?”
Ellinor remained stoic, “No, I understand Theo’s concern for his life–saver. I’m not mad about that.”
Bartlett found her rationality surprising, yet he wasn’t completely convinced she was unperturbed. He
scrutinized her for a moment before saying, “Theo’s always been kind to Ms. Howard. In fact, before
you came along, I thought they’d end up together.”
Ellinor raised an eyebrow. End up together?
That was something lovers do. So, in Bartlett’s view, was there an emotional history between Theo and
Ms. Howard?
“I know Theo.” Bartlett continued, “He might seem cold, but he’s very upright. He surely appreciates
Ms. Howard for saving his life. These years, his care, protection, and tolerance towards Ms. Howard
have been beyond reproach; even I find it touching. But this may not bode well for his wife. After all, no
woman wants her husband to care for another woman. Ellinor, it’s normal if you’re jealous.”
Ellinor kept quiet. She wasn’t in the mood for explanations.
She wasn’t jealous; she was mad!
Mad that Theo had questioned her in such a distrustful tone.
His attitude clearly meant he suspected she’d done something displeasing to Ms. Howard.
She thought Theo understood her, but now it seemed he didn’t really know her and even thought the
worst of her.
Though she wasn’t too fond of Patricia, she wouldn’t stoop so low as to mistreat her
Truth be told, she had no interest in wasting her time and energy on somebody like Patricia.
It was Patricia who kept stirring up trouble with her.
It was really annoying!
Bartlett led her to an empty guest room. After they entered, he promptly fetched a towel from the
bathroom and handed it to her.
“Here, dry off a bit. This is the master suite of Jonah’s villa. He doesn’t usually stay here, and all the
items in the rooms are regularly replaced, so you can use them without worry. This towel is new.”
Bartlett was very meticulous, even going to the extent of explaining these little details to her.
