The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1011

"What?! Ellinor is pregnant?" Outside the emergency room, Marissa overheard Haillie, totally taken aback. She jumped up and rushed over, staring at her grandson in shock, "Theo, is this true?"

Theo hadn't officially spilled the beans about Ellinor's pregnancy to the family. He was worried that his grandma would only focus on stuffing Ellinor with nutrients, and Ellinor, not wanting to turn down her kindness, might end up overeating and harming herself.

Well, there was no point in keeping it a secret now. He nodded at his grandma.

Marissa was already worried about Ellinor's safety, and now she had to worry about the child in her womb too. She felt a wave of darkness pass over her vision, her chest tightened, and she found it hard to breathe.

With his long arm, Theo caught his grandma just as she was about to faint and sternly told his sister, "Veronica, take Grandma and let her rest!"

For once, Veronica was acting sensible. She took over from her brother and helped their grandma sit down on a chair against the wall.

Seeing an opportunity to avoid further questioning from Theo, Haillie followed Veronica to help Marissa. After a moment of thought, she tried to comfort the old woman, "Marissa, don't get too worked up. The child in Ellinor's belly might not even be Theo's. She didn't really answer me when I asked her today. I think Ellinor..."

Smack!

Before she could finish, a slap landed on her face, cutting her off.

Haillie's ears were ringing. When the ringing finally stopped, she turned to look at the person who slapped her, her eyes wide in disbelief, "Balfour, you hit me?"
