The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1280

Ellinor found it hilarious. "Why should I step aside for you? Am I in your way?"

Sophia leaned in close to her ear. "You're not blocking my walking path, but you're definitely blocking my love path."

Ellinor's gaze was icy, like she was listening to a ridiculous joke. "Your love path has nothing to do with me!"

As Sophia was about to say something, she suddenly noticed a tall and graceful figure appearing behind Ellinor and started laughing. "Bartlett, how come you're here?"

Bartlett walked over, glanced at Ellinor casually, and then smiled at Sophia. "I just stepped out to make a phone call. What are you two ladies chatting about?"

Sophia glanced at Bartlett and then at Ellinor, as if she had realized something. Her smile revealed a hint of intrigue. "Oh, Ellinor mentioned she's quite interested in the paintings at the party. I'm worried about her walking around pregnant, but I have to attend to the guests, so, Bartlett, why don't you accompany Ellinor?"

Bartlett answered with a smile. "Sure, I'll take care of that!"

A glint flashed in Sophia's eyes. "Great, have fun you two. I won't disturb you!"

With that, Sophia disappeared gracefully into the crowd.

Bartlett watched Sophia's figure gradually disappear and then turned to Ellinor. "Didn't you say you were going to the restroom? How did you end up here?"

"So, after going to the restroom, I can't walk around? Do I have to go back and let you guys scrutinize me?"

Bartlett shrugged and laughed. "As you just saw, I didn't join them in discussing you."

Ellinor's opinion of Bartlett had changed a lot; after all, he was the one who had saved her life.

"Do you find them annoying as well?"
