The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 16

Ellinor's eyes were wide as saucers, completely flabbergasted at the sight of the man doing push-ups on top of her!

Her mouth was covered by Theo's other big hand, and the man just pulled the quilt over their bodies, only their heads were visible.

They were staring at each other, sometimes close, sometimes far apart, so it almost seemed like they were...

Ellinor was a bit flustered. Faced with such suggestive actions, she couldn't help but push away the man's large hand.

"You.." Ellinor said.

Theo had just finished a push-up, he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Didn't you say you were going to take this three-month mission seriously? This is something you need to cooperate with, don't move around!"

Ellinor was taken aback for a second, then she noticed some movement at the room's doorway. Marissa had the door slightly ajar, sneakily observing them.

So, that was it!

Upon realizing, Ellinor whispered, "Do you need me to help you?"

Theo was somewhat surprised, "Can you?"

Ellinor's gaze was very determined!

A hint of mockery flashed in Theo's eyes, "Why don't you give it a try?"

Ellinor took a deep breath, and started her performance, "Honey, keep it up! Faster! Go!"

Theo stared at her, veins throbbing in his forehead, and he quickly covered her mouth again!

Ellinor frowned, "Mmm mmm mmm..."

The suppressed sounds, somehow, suggested something else. The gap in the door gradually decreased, until the door closed. Marissa revealed a satisfied smile, and turned to leave.

Ellinor pushed away the man's hand again, impatiently saying, "Your grandma left, you can get up now!"

Theo threw off the quilt, swiftly got up, and put on the shirt he just took off.

Ellinor sat up against the head of the bed, casually whistling, "You're pretty old, but you still maintain your abs, really disciplined!"

Theo stiffened, old? How old did she think he was?

"Ellinor, if you look at me like that again, I'll think you're into me." Theo said.

Ellinor said, "I'm only into your abs, the rest is not my type!"

"Really?" Theo walked to the head of the bed, reached out and pinched Ellinor's chin, "Then what type of men do you like?"

Ellinor was forced to look up, "I like obedient and submissive types!"

Theo scoffed, "Do those even count as men?"

Ellinor snickered, "Then what type of women do you like, old man?"

Theo didn't answer.

Ellinor raised an eyebrow, "Let me guess, do you like sexy women?"

Theo looked at her, leaned down slightly, "Definitely not the type that would cheer me on in bed!"

Theo let go of her chin, and turned to walk to the bathroom. Ellinor thought, since Marissa was home today, Theo would definitely spend the night in the room. Though she knew Theo wasn't interested in her, sharing a room made her feel uncomfortable.

When Theo came out of the bathroom, Ellinor had already fallen asleep.

Her phone screen was still lit, showing the game she was playing. She acted like a child, yet wanted a boyfriend?

Dream on!

Theo walked over and took her phone, pressed the lock screen button, and placed it on the bedside table. He was not planning to take care of her, but considering he accidentally hurt her today, he covered her with the quilt.

Then, Theo turned and walked towards the sofa.
