The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1299

"Ellinor, a nutritionist is dropping by at noon to whip up lunch for you. Any preference for dinner? I can pick up groceries on my way home after work."

Since Ellinor decided to stay, she wasn't about to let herself get the short end of the stick. She thought for a moment. "Let's have some BBQ!"

Balfour seemed a bit miffed, and he frowned. "You shouldn't be eating such spicy and stimulating food now."

Ellinor didn't argue with him. "Fine, I'll just order takeout."

Balfour sighed. "Alright, I'll get some veggies and slices of meat after work. We can have BBQ together."

Ellinor nodded and continued munching on her bacon. After a bite, she said in a heavy tone. "Mr. Howard, don't forget to get that painting you promised me as soon as possible."

She really wanted that painting soon, so she wouldn't have to deal with Theo's annoying threats.

Balfour nodded. "Don't worry, I won't forget."

Seeing that Balfour was in a good mood, Byran gathered up his courage to ask. "We have exams today at school, so I have the day off. Can I skip cram school? I want to stay home with Ellinor."

Balfour shot him an annoyed look.

At this moment, Ellinor said, "Let him take a day off; it's boring staying home alone. It's nice to have someone to chat with."

"Alright." Balfour's face softened immediately. He smiled at Ellinor and then turned to Byran, giving him a stern warning. "You better behave yourself and not upset Ellinor."

Byran was over the moon; he nodded. "Don't worry, I won't let her get mad!"

Balfour finished his meal, picked up a napkin, and wiped his mouth elegantly. "I'm leaving now; you two stay home. Call me if anything comes up."
