The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 469

But her faith made her decide not to ditch the kid.

Ellinor had it rough growing up. She was pushed around mercilessly by everyone around her, with no one willing to take her in.

After numerous twists and turns, she ended up in a monastery, where she grew up under the care of the people there, living a relatively stable life and experiencing the warmth and kindness of the world.

That's why she knew she had to pay it forward.

No matter what, she willingly slept with him that night and the child was innocent in this.

Regardless of what the future held, she decided to keep the child and would do everything she could to take care of it. She was dead set on not letting the child suffer like she did.

When Patricia walked into the office with her baby, Haillie jumped up to greet her like she was seeing a long-lost pal.

"Patricia, you made it! Come in with the baby; you must be beat from the trip."

Patricia flashed a sweet smile and said, "Nah, not at all. I pushed the stroller here and just left it outside the office. Haillie, have you been waiting long?"

Haillie let out an exasperated chuckle and shook her head, "Not too long; it was nice to hang out with Balfour for a bit."

Patricia could tell by the situation that Haillie was probably given the cold shoulder by her brother again.
