The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1607

Ellinor’s hunch was spot on. The person who answered the door wasn’t Ida or Chase, but it wasn’t a stranger either.

Byran, in his pajamas and looking like he’d just woken up, ran his fingers through his shaggy hair and yawned. “Sis,

it’s you? Why are you up so early? Isn’t it the weekend?”

Ellinor brushed past Byran and strode straight in, taking in the state of the room with a frown. “Where are Ida and

Chase?”

Byran, trailing obediently behind her, replied, “Ida’s in the bathroom. Chase moved out a couple of days ago,

remember? He’s getting married, so he moved into his new place.”

Moved out? Chase didn’t even give her a heads-up. What a’ piece of work!

Ellinor’s expression darkened. She perched on the sofa and gestured for Byran to bring her a glass of water.

Byran complied without a fuss. “Okay.”

By the time Byran fetched the water, Ida had finished in the bathroom and emerged, dressed and ready.

“You’re up early, boss.” Ida took the glass from Byran and gave it to Ellinor herself.

Ellinor was genuinely thirsty, and she gulped down a couple of mouthfuls. “You and Chase are getting all secretive

on me. You’re not even telling me about the wedding and sending me an invitation like some stranger?”

Ida looked innocent. “Boss, it’s got nothing to do with me. I’d never go behind your back like that. As for Chase, I

only found out he was moving out a couple of days ago when he was packing. I thought he’d tell you.”

Ellinor let out a dry laugh. “And where did he move to?” Ellinor took another sip of water. “He’s got it all planned

out, hasn’t he? Good for him.”

As she said, ‘Good for him, her tone was flat, but her displeasure was palpable.

Ida, who had known Ellinor since they were kids, could see she was angry. She pulled out her phone. “I’ll call Chase.

I’ll get him to come back and explain himself.”

With that, Ida headed off to the balcony to make the call.

Byran stood awkwardly in place, feeling the same kind of pressure from his sister that he usually felt from his

brother, Balfour.

You’don

“Sis, Chase is an adult. He can handle his own marriage. You don’t need to be so upset, do you?”

Ellinor shot him a cool look. “Am I upset?”

Byran felt a chill. “Uh… good, good. I’ll just go cut up some fruit for you.”

He made a hasty retreat to the safety of the kitchen.

It was obvious that she was upset. The look in her eyes was like daggers. If he didn’t get out of the line of fire, he’d

get skewered.

On the balcony.

Ida finally got through to Chase. From the wind noise on the line, he didn’t seem to be at home.

“Where are you? The boss is looking for you.”

Chase’s voice had an unusual edge to it. “What’s up? Does she need something?”

Ida snapped. “Cut the crap! Get back here and explain your wedding plans to her!”

Chase chuckled. “Tell her to wait for me. I’ll be back soon to own up.”
