Chapter 1567

Ellinor was silent. She was only focusing on her drive towards Blue River Estates.

Bartlett was always a chatterbox. He could go on and on, even when there was nothing to talk

about.

“Ellinor, where were you earlier? At a friend's place?”

Ellinor, of course, had no intention of revealing Theo's appearance to outsiders. “Even if I told you,

you wouldn“t know them.”

Bartlett looked innocent. “I was just curious.”

“Thanks for your concern.” Ellinor responded. “But let's stick to business today, shall we?”

Bartlett sighed. “Ellinor, you really know how to shoot me down, don't you?”

Ellinor was indifferent. “It's not that I dislike you. I'm just not interested in you.”

Bartlett groaned. “That's even worse! Ellinor, do you have to be so blunt? You're breaking my

heart!”

Ellinor found him annoying. Her gaze darkened, and she warned, “Hold on!”

Before Bartlett could react, Ellinor floored it, and the car zoomed off.

By the time they arrived at their destination, Bartlett was almost green in the face.

Ellinor got out of the car as if nothing had happened and began surveying the large piece of land.

"Which part belongs to Rex Enterprises?”

There was no response

Ellinor turned around in surprise to see Bartlett leaning against a tree, retching.

Was she really driving that fast?

After a while, Bartlett managed to straighten up. While patting his chest, he said, “Ellinor, where did

you learn to drive? That was... That was like a roller-coaster ride.” Ellinor was expressionless. “Mr.

Rex, pull yourself together. Let's get down to business.”

“Ellinor, you're really not a soft-hearted woman, huh?” Bartlett pointed out a small area. “That's Rex

Enterprises’ land.”

Ellinor followed his direction. “It's small.”

Bartlett didn't deny it. “Yeah, but the location is great, isn't it? It's the perfect addition to the land

you recently acquired.”

Ellinor squinted her eyes in thought. “Why don't you sell me your land?”

Bartlett shook his head. “I can't do that, Ellinor. My intention has always been to develop Blue River

Estates in partnership with the Blanchet Corporation. If I wanted to sell the land to you, why would I

even bring up this proposal?”

Sophia returned hotel as the evening approached

She stopped by a supermarket to buy some groceries.

She had developed a fondness for cooking meals for Marcus. Each time, he would thank her with a

rare, gentle word of appreciation.

These words might not mean much to others, but for Sophia, they were a rare show of affection

from her beloved man.

And being able to watch the man she loved eat the meal she had prepared for him gave her a sense

of contentment.
