The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 112

Sheila shot Ellinor a look, ready to throw a couple more insults her way, but was cut off by the sudden ring of her phone.

It was a video call from their dad, Arnold Mendoza.

Sheila waved her phone in front of Ellinor, bragging, “See, it's Dad calling! I bet you hardly ever get calls from him, huh? Just shows that he doesn't care about his illegitimate daughter!”

Ellinor just shrugged and laughed, “Better answer it quick, sis, or your beloved dad might hang up.”

Sheila picked up, making sure Ellinor could hear.

On-screen, Arnold and Tracy appeared, smiling at their celebrity daughter.

Arnold asked with concern, “How's work today, Sheila? Have you eaten yet?”

Sheila pouted, pretending to be upset, “Haven't had the chance! I've been so busy, who has time for food?”

Arnold frowned, “You've got to eat! No matter how busy you are, health comes first!”

Tracy chimed in, “Sheila, your dad is right! If you really can't, have some milk first. We'll be worried sick if you starve yourself.”

Sheila put on a wronged face, “I've no appetite for anything but Dad’s cooking.”

Arnold cooed, “Well, that's easy. I'll cook for you when you get back from work!”

“But I’ll get home so late! You'll be asleep...”

“Doesn't matter! No matter how late, I'll get up to cook for you!”

“Thanks, Dad. I knew you loved me the most!”

“Alright, your mom and I won't disturb you at work. Come home early tonight; I'll cook for you!”

Just as Arnold was about to hang up, Sheila called him back.
