The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 326

In the middle of a crowded subway, Ellinor was completely swayed by Theo's words...

Even though the subway was super noisy, he spoke so softly, it felt like she was the only one who could hear him.

Yet, she was blushing and feeling shy!

Without looking up at Theo, she chuckled softly, "I didn't save your life, you don't have to thank me."

Theo held her tight, "Who said you didn't save me? You did, that rainy night, I know you were saving me."

Ellinor froze for a moment, feeling awkward again when he brought up that night...

"That day I got kidnapped, didn't you risk your life to save me? So, we're even, you don't have to feel responsible for me!"

She was still trying her best to clarify their relationship, sometimes Theo thought Ellinor was too smart for her own good, other times she was so naive it drove him crazy.

"You're so naive, but you're a good kid, always acting so cold!"

Theo scolded her gently while ruffling her hair, "You're making light of it now, but I know you struggled a lot at the time to save me, that night wasn't easy for you, it's my fault you had to suffer."

Ellinor was taken aback, her nose suddenly turned sour.

No one had ever understood her feelings like this before, trying to figure out how she was feeling, seeing through her facade, and not mocking her.

Growing up, some people thought she was beneath them, they took joy in humiliating her when she couldn't fight back, completely ignoring her feelings.

Now that she's grown up and can protect herself, everyone thinks she's so strong that she can't be broken, that she doesn't have a vulnerable side.

This often led her to ignore her own feelings, fooling herself into thinking she had no fears, no weaknesses.

This man, he shattered that protective layer in her heart...

The man sighed suddenly, whispering, "Looks like, I'm just not cut out for romance. The flower field I prepared for you that day went to waste, you barely looked at it before you left. Instead, I ended up confessing my feelings in this noisy, casual setting."

Ellinor looked up in surprise, "What? The tulip field at Pearl Moon, that was for me?"

"Who else would it be for?"

"Hmph, don't lie to me, how could that field of flowers be for me? That day in your public confession at The Bund of Trent River, you even said Patricia's name!"
