The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 503

Bartlett seemed a bit spaced out.

Then he smiled contentedly, "No worries, Ellinor. I just rushed over after finishing work. Jonah Wyton called me and told me that they're hanging out at the Pavilion in Pearl Moon. I figure Balfour must've been summoned as well. Wanna tag along and find your boss?"

Mr. Howard might be with Jonah and the others, and since Theo had definitely left, she wouldn't run into him again. Considering this, Ellinor nodded, "Sure, let's roll!"

...

The Pavilion of Pearl Moon was a separate villa within the estate, a good distance from the party venue, and quite peaceful.

Ellinor followed Bartlett into the Pavilion. Right at the entrance, she spotted three men engrossed in a game of poker, with Balfour among them.

Bartlett chuckled, "What are you guys up to?"

"Bartlett, you’re just in time, Join us!" Jonah laid down his cards, glanced up, and saw Ellinor by Bartlett's side. He was taken aback for a moment, then joked in surprise, "Bartlett, your lady friend looks familiar!"

Bartlett clarified, "Don't get it twisted. This lady friend is my secretary Angel. Ellinor came today as Balfour's companion. I just ran into her looking for Balfour, so I brought her over."

Jonah looked even more puzzled and turned to Balfour, "Balfour, is that right?"

"Yes, Ms. Mendoza is currently my secretary." Balfour replied calmly.

Ellinor had reappeared as Balfour's secretary after leaving the Blanchet family?

Things were getting interesting!

Jonah gazed at Ellinor for a moment, then turned towards the window, making a face, "Theo, an old friend of yours is here. Aren't you coming over for a chat?"

Ellinor was stunned when she heard Jonah say this.

Theo hadn't left yet?

"Thanks." Ellinor took the glass.

Bartlett's thoughtfulness was touching.

She took a sip of water and felt slightly better.

After Bartlett sat down again, he suddenly leaned over and whispered, "If you're not feeling well, I can take you home first. I remember that today should be your period. Are you feeling unwell because of that?"

Ellinor was taken aback and surprised at Bartlett's words.

She didn’t feel embarrassed. Having periods was a normal thing for girls. She just found it curious, "Why would you remember my period?"

Bartlett chuckled and whispered in her ear, "Don't you remember? The first time you came to my gallery, it was because you were feeling unwell due to your period. And that day was four months ago today."
