The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 743

Ida shot him a cold look, "Ellinor's the one roasting you; don't drag me into this."

Ellinor was done arguing with them. She checked her watch and saw that there was an hour left before clocking out. She'd just make it to the Blanchet Corporation by quitting time if she took a cab.

She put down her coffee and got up from her office chair, "You guys, carry on with your stuff; I'm heading out."

Chase asked, "Where are you off to, Ellinor? Aren't you eating with us?"

"I'm going to pick up Theo from the Blanchet Corporation." Without turning her head, Ellinor waved her hand and walked out of the CEO's office.

Chase shook his head helplessly as he watched the door close, "Ah... that lovey-dovey atmosphere!"

After coming back to her senses, Ida shot him a disgusted look, "Alright, go back to your office and be jealous there!"

The coffee shop across the Blanchet Corporation building.

Ellinor picked a window seat and ordered a coffee.

She had a clear view of the entrance to the Blanchet Corporation, so she could see Theo as soon as he stepped out.

She hadn't told Theo she was coming because she wanted to surprise him and see how he'd react to her picking him up from work.

How would the straight-laced, serious Theo react when he saw her? She found the thought amusing.
