So that was Bartlett’s hidden agenda.
Upon hearing Bartlett’s ulterior motive, Ellinor didn’t feel repulsed. On the contrary, she felt a sense of
relief.
She was more afraid that Bartlett would harbor romantic intentions towards her than any business-
related motives.
In a way, this was better.
Bartlett had genuinely helped her in the past, and she hadn’t forgotten that. She couldn’t reciprocate his
feelings, but she had told him that if he ever needed help, she would extend a helping hand.
Now that Bartlett was asking for a favor, she didn’t want to refuse.
However, this wasn’t a decision she could make alone. It would require a shareholders’ meeting at the
Blanchet Corporation.
“I’ll consider your proposal.” She told him. “When I have time, I’ll visit your land. If we can collaborate,
I’ll try my best to make it happen.”
Bartlett nodded with a smile. “Thanks in advance, Ellinor. You have no idea how much of a headache
that land has been. A partnership with the Blanchet Corporation would solve a huge problem for me.”
“Don’t thank me too soon.” Ellinor warned. “I’ve only promised to try my best. The final decision isn’t
mine to make.”
Bartlett grinned at her through the rear-view mirror. “I understand. Just the fact that you’re willing to
help is enough for me. The result isn’t the most important thing.”
Ellinor caught his hopeful gaze in the rear-view mirror and quickly avoided it, turning her gaze out the
car window.
“Keep your eyes on the road.” She ordered.
“Of course.” Bartlett replied, still smiling.
After that, Bartlett kept his eyes on the road, but he didn’t stop talking. He chatted nonstop with Ellinor.
Although Ellinor found him somewhat annoying, she remembered that he had helped her in the past
and didn’t want to be too cold, so she responded to his chatter now and then.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the Blanchet Villa.
Tristan had already fallen asleep in Ellinor’s arms.
Ever the gentleman, Bartlett got out of the car and opened the door for Ellinor, offering to take Tristan
from her.
Ellinor shook her head, refusing his offer. She carried Tristan herself, slowly getting out of the car,
She didn’t want to wake her son, who had finally fallen asleep after a day full of complex emotions. If
someone else held him, he would surely wake up.
Bartlett stood helplessly by as she got out of the car with Tristan.
Once Ellinor had adjusted her hold on Tristan to make him more comfortable, she politely thanked
Bartlett and asked him to be careful on his way home. However, Bartlett joked. “Are you sending me off
just like that? Aren’t you going to invite me in for a cup of tea?”
Ellinor frowned, looking at him in annoyance. “Do you think that’s appropriate?”
Bartlett shrugged. “I was joking. Go on inside; I’ll be on my way. Contact me if there’s any news about
the Blue River Estates deal.”
