The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1309

Ellinor’s gaze moved from the TV screen to Balfour. “What do I want most?”

Could it be?

Balfour snapped his fingers.

Then, a few servants brought in a painting, placed it in front of Ellinor, and uncovered the white cloth on the painting.

Ellinor’s eyes lit up instantly, it was Lady Lotus’s self-portrait!

The woman in the painting looked like she was in deep sorrow and despair, yet she seemed to have a strong will to survive. Was there anything that she couldn’t let go of?.

There were some fine lines at the corners of the woman’s eyes, and the laugh lines on both sides of her nose were slightly deep. She seemed to no longer be in her thirties.

If this painting was truly painted by her mother, then after she sent Ellinor to the Mendoza family, she must have escaped the hunt. She must have still been alive. How else could she have been able to paint this self-portrait after so many years?

Was her mother still alive?

Balfour was deep in thought while staring at the painting, as if he were filled with emotion.
