Balfour squinted. “So you’re saying Mom might still be alive?”
Ellinor took a deep breath. “I hope so, but I’m not sure I haven’t found any clues about Mom, just some
of her paintings that she left behind.” Balfour sighed. Tve been looking for you and Mom all these
years. Now that you’re back, I’ll have people keep looking for Mom.”
Ellinor nodded. “Okay, thanks a ton, Mr. Howard. If you find any clues, please let me know”
She was all for more people joining the search for her mother.
In fact, she was really worried that her mom might have been killed after entrusting her to Arnold
Mendoza
If Mom didn’t feel danger was imminent, she believed her mom would never have left her in someone
else’s care.
Her mom must have had no other choice but to make this decision.
Balfour knew Ellinor must be thinking about their mom after noticing the look of despair on Ellinor’s
face.
After all these years, his little sister had been alone without Mom’s company. She must have gone
through hell.
He ached for her and wanted to give her a big hug, but he didn’t dare
Balfour knew that Ellinor hadn’t accepted him as her brother yet. The only reason she was sitting here
talking to him was because of their mom.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t keep calling him Mr. Howard, making their relationship seem so distant
Balfour had enough patience. He planned to slowly win her acceptance. He couldn’t rush things
“Ellinor, it’s okay if you don’t want to acknowledge me. But could you promise me that you won’t
disappear on me again?”
Ellinor gave him a small smile. I’m with the Blanchet family. You can reach me anytime, Mr. Howard.
But please, only contact me if it’s about Mom. The Blanchets don’t exactly roll out the red carpet for
Howards
With that, Ellinor got up to leave. “I should get going. Theo’s been waiting for me”
Balfour didn’t try to stop her, knowing it would be futile. He simply got up and reminded her, “Take care
on your way”
Ellinor waved without looking back and headed for the parking lot.
Balfour watched her retreating figure, wanting to follow but fearing it would upset her
Fortunately, the parking lot wasn’t far, so he could still see her from where he stood.
It wasn’t until he saw Ellinor reach Theo that he finally relaxed and picked up his coat, dusting it off.
As he prepared to leave he ran into his father, McNeil Howard
Ever since his mother left, his relationship with his father had been strained
McNeil asked. ‘Balfour, what were you and Ellinor talking about?”
Balfour replied nonchalantly, “Nothing much I was just apologizing to the lady who saved Grandpa’s
life. Today’s events must have upset her”
McNeil agreed and went on, “How did that girl marry into the Blanchet family?
Balfour raised an eyebrow sarcastically, ‘Are you interested in her?’
McNeil responded frankly, “I think she looks a lot like your mother when she was young.”
Balfour laughed coldly, “You still remember my mother? Forgive me for being blunt, but you should be
embarrassed to even mention her!”
