Chapter 909
Back then, Ellinor had a nosebleed after drinking the nutritious soup that Marissa cooked
Marissa felt a bit ashamed to be reminded of that embarrassing incident by her own grandson. She shot a glare at
him, then offered a slightly guilty and worried smile to
Ellinor
“Ellinor, I swear I didn’t mean to make you drink that much soup fast time. I was just worried because you’re so
skinny. Having some once in a while won’t do you any harm. Ellinor nodded and smiled, “I know you mean well
Marissa found her to be adorable, obedient, and understanding, which made her very fond of Ellinor. However, she
wasn’t as satisfied with Theo, and she frowned as she chided him, “Theo, what on earth have you been doing? Look

Theo, sitting next to Ellinor, took a good look at her and gently patted her head, “Yeah, she is too thin. Grandma’s
right, we should take better care of her!”
His touch was delicate, as if he were caressing a little kitten or puppy.
Then he leaned in and whispered, “Just taste the soup Grandma cooked for you later. If you don’t want it, I drink it.
Don’t force yourself!
Ellinor nodded. She wasn’t hungry at all and was worried about how she was going to handle Marissa’s soup, so his
offer was a relief.
However, their whispered conversation made Marissa very happy. She flashed a loving smile, sat next to her
husband, and nudged his arm, “Look, Theo’s finally learning how to care for people!”
Putnam, a man of few words, watched Theo’s gentle behavior towards Ellinor silently and did not respond.
Ellinor could feel that Putnam’s gaze was always tinged with a certain complexity, clearly, he didn’t share Marissa’s
fondness for her.
At dinner, Marissa still paid a lot of attention to Ellinor, constantly serving her food and urging her to eat more.
Ellinor was overwhelmed, but thankfully, Theo was attentive enough to eat all the food Marissa served her, solving
her problem.
Just as dinner was about to end, a servant suddenly reported, “There’s a family outside looking for the lady.”
Ellinor raised an eyebrow, “Looking for me?”
The servant nodded, “Yes. Three of them have been here before. They said they were your relatives!”
Relatives?
The first family Ellinor thought of was the Howard family, but she immediately dismissed that idea. It couldn’t be
them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf they were from the Howard family, the Blanchet family’s servants would recognize them.
Moreover, Balfour had just promised her at noon that he wouldn’t reveal her identity to the rest of the Howard
family.
Though she had some resentment towards Balfour, she believed he wouldn’t break his word so easily.
So, the only ones who could be mistaken for her relatives by the Blanchet family’s servants were the Mendozas.
If it were the Mendozas, that would be even stranger!
Since officially severing ties with the Mendoza family, she hadn’t been in contact with them. Why would they come
to the Blanchet villa today?
Something didn’t add up.
Marissa, unaware of the complicated relationship between Ellinor and her so-called ‘relatives, cheerfully said,
“Ellinor’s family is here? Great, let’s invite them in for dinner! Ask the kitchen to prepare more dishes!”
As the servant was about to respond, Ellinor stood up and said, “No need, Grandma. I’ll go out and see if they’re
looking for me. There might be a mix-up.”
