The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1359

Belinda furrowed her brows. "No, I don't wanna go! Jacob just blew his top on the phone because of my thing with Chase, and I can't even figure out my own head right now, so the last thing I need is more Chase drama. Might as well stick around. Once Chase hits the road at dawn, I'll make myself scarce."

Suddenly, Belinda winked mysteriously, "Ellinor, I've got the lowdown on this Sophia situation. You wanna hear it?"

Ellinor, half sprawled on the bed with her phone, glanced up at Belinda upon hearing this. "Spill."

Seeing that Ellinor was now intrigued, Belinda leaned over the bed and started.

"Ellinor, you know how Theo keeps Patricia at arm's length because he mistakenly thinks he owes her his life, right? But with Sophia, he sometimes lets her get away with too much. You know why?"

Ellinor frowned, retorting, "Theo's definitely not as distant with Sophia as he is with Patricia. He puts up with Patricia out of a sense of obligation. But with Sophia, he seems a bit clueless, like he doesn't see the boundaries as clearly. That's because they're legally married."

At this thought, Ellinor felt a sudden annoyance, and her sudden urge to want nothing to do with Theo anymore resurfaced.

After noticing Ellinor's stern expression, Belinda quickly added, "Ellinor, hold your horses! Let me explain! When Theo first met Sophia, he thought she was a guy, so he treated her like a brother, like he does with Jonah, for quite a while. He was used to seeing her as a guy, so he didn't react as strongly to her advances."

Ellinor frowned at Belinda. "What the hell are you on about? You don't need to spin such a wild yarn. Sophia's figure is pretty obvious; how could she be mistaken for a guy?"
