Chapter 705

Dean ignored them. His aged yet sharp eyes were fixed on Ellinor, who was now protected behind Theo.

He took back his cane from Theo and pointed it at Ellinor, “Were you the one speaking just now?”

Ellinor was taken aback and frowned. What was up with the elders in the Howard family?

Regaining her composure, she nodded, “Yes, I was speaking. Is there a problem?”

Dean’s pupils twitched, and he looked at her with a piercing gaze. He studied Ellinor with his deep eyes, “Have we

met before?”

Instead of answering immediately, Ellinor glanced at Balfour. As expected, his handsome yet cold eyes held a hint

of wariness.

If she acknowledged meeting him and explained the circumstances of their previous encounter, it would look like

sucking up. Given Balfour’s petty nature, he might think she was trying to curry favor with the Howard family by

getting close to Dean.

After a moment’s thought, Ellinor shook her head and said, “I don’t think we’ve met, you must have mistaken me

for someone else.”

Her answer left Balfour a bit perplexed and his eyes full of curiosity.

Ellinor didn’t want to stick around. She bypassed Dean’s cane, grabbed Theo’s hand, and continued towards the

door.

“Hold on!”

Dean’s voice made her pause.

Ellinor turned to look at him, “What is it now?”

Dean leaned on his cane and hurriedly took a few steps towards her, “I remember now, you’re the girl who helped

me at The Bund of Trent River. I remember your voice, I’m sure of it!”

Ellinor fell silent.

Dean was quite sharp. How could he recognize her just from her voice?

See that, Balfour? I wasn’t trying to get close to your grandpa, he recognized me first!

Dean’s face gradually softened into a smile, “Have you been out of the country? I had my grandson looking for you

for quite some time, he kept telling me he couldn’t find you!”

He was looking for her?

Ellinor was a bit puzzled as to why Dean was looking for her. She glanced at Balfour, realizing that he hadn’t been

unable to find her, he just didn’t want his grandpa to interact too much with a girl from the countryside. So he

brushed him off, telling him he couldn’t find her.

“What do you need me for?” She asked.
