The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1237

"No, she's always been like this, you know. She doesn't get angry easily, but when she does, it's a big deal. I mean, look at me now; I don't even have the courage to talk to her."

Belinda started to worry again. "Oh... okay!"

Chase lifted his arm, gently guiding her to sit on the bed, and then clarified. "I didn't mean to bring you into my room. It's just that in this house, my room is the only territory I can control. The rest of the house is under the reign of Ellinor and Ida. I didn't dare bring you into their spaces. If we were caught, they would totally flip!"

Belinda sat on the soft bed, feeling a bit uncomfortable. After hearing Chase's explanation, she got the picture, so she didn't stand up again.

She'd always known that Chase lived with Ms. Gipson, but she just found out today that Ellinor lived with them too.

Girls needed more rooms because they had a ton of clothes and makeup to store. Guys were way simpler; a bedroom was all they needed.

Also, girls usually didn't like people barging into their rooms without permission.

It was totally understandable.

Chase opened the coke for Belinda and then handed it to her. "Chill out; I'm not up to anything."

Belinda gradually relaxed. She didn't think that Chase had any other intentions. She was just worried about appearing too nervous in front of him.

She took the coke and took a sip while hanging her head low, not sure what to say next.

Chase sat next to her, maintaining a safe distance, and took a sip of his beer. "Actually, you didn't want to see me, did you? So why did you come back with us?"

Belinda savored the taste of the coke in her mouth and then said, "Because I didn't want to argue with Ellinor! I came back with you guys to try to calm her down."
