The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1216

Ellinor grunted in a low voice as a sign of approval.

Belinda subtly nudged Theo with her elbow. "My auntie actually enjoys her peace and quiet! She's a lone wolf!"

What she meant was that she hoped her uncle would understand Ellinor. Since they haven't seen each other in a long time, they should sit down and have a good chat.

Theo stifled a laugh. "Didn't she already tell you to call her by her name? Why are you calling her Auntie again?"

Belinda suddenly remembered that, but she couldn't change her habit immediately.

Plus, she had no plans to change her way of addressing her anytime soon.

What did her uncle mean? Was he really planning to break up with Ellinor?

Theo’s words felt like a jab to Ellinor, as if he were implying that she was pretending to be aloof.

She was used to Belinda calling her that, but because she was distracted, she didn't react immediately.

Belinda wanted to lighten the mood, but it only made things more awkward. She decided to zip it.

Ida's office at Crescent Society.

Ida had just arranged for some snacks for Byran to munch on while she dealt with her work.

But when her assistant informed her that Ellinor had gotten into Theo's car below the building, Ida shot up. "What? Where is Theo taking her?"

The assistant shrugged. "They said they needed closure. Even Ellinor doesn't know where they're headed."
