The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 465

She had been playing her emotional cards long before this, always openly unilaterally declaring her affection for Balfour.

With a confident smile, Haillie announced, "Not now, but definitely in the future! Patricia promised me she would accept me as family in the future! And since Balfour respects Patricia's opinions, isn't the outcome clear?"

"Who's going to be whose family?" Balfour’s cold voice suddenly echoed.

Haillie and Ellinor both froze, turning their heads to the source of the sound.

Balfour looked like he'd just returned from outside; his coat was casually draped over his arm and his every movement was graceful and dignified.

He strolled over and his eyes landed on Haillie. A slight frown appeared on his face, "What brings you here? Need something?"

Haillie's face was less fiery than when she was questioning Ellinor earlier. She gently and wisely looked at Balfour, softly replying, "Balfour, I specifically came to thank you for saving me yesterday. Also, I guess you haven't had lunch yet, so I brought you some of your favorite dishes. Eat up before they get cold."

Balfour glanced at the food container in her hand, "You don't need to go through all that trouble; the company has a cafeteria."

Haillie shook her head, lovingly saying, "Eating cafeteria food all the time isn't good for your health! These meals are all homemade by me and are low in oil and salt. Patricia suggested this; she said you've been looking tired from working so hard recently and asked me to cook some good food for you. Balfour, you aren't going to reject Patricia's good intentions, are you?"

Balfour then nodded slightly, "Bring it in."

After saying that, he walked past Haillie, coldly heading towards his office.
