The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1487

Balfour squinted at the cellphone on the coffee table and picked it up to return Ellinor's call.

After a few rings, the call was answered.

"Ellinor, what's up? Need something from your older brother?"

"Mr. Howard, did the auction house get back to you yet? Did they confirm the father-daughter relationship between Thaddeus and Sophia?"

Balfour felt nothing but sympathy for his sister. His sister worried about the Blanchet Corporation even after getting home, and that nonchalant man across from him knew nothing about her efforts. "Not yet. Ellinor, you don't need to worry about this anymore. I'll take care of it for you. The property will definitely be yours, and the price will certainly satisfy you."

"Let me know as soon as there's any progress." Ellinor was somewhat anxious about this matter, always feeling that Sophia wouldn’t be easily handled.

Balfour responded gently. "Sure thing. How are the kids?"

"They're having dinner. They won't be upstairs for a while."

"You should also rest well and stop overthinking. If you ever get tired of staying with the Blanchets, feel free to come back home. You and the children are always welcome."

Ellinor fell silent.

Over the years, Balfour often suggested that she should come back home, but she always refused.

She knew that Balfour didn't want her to stay with the Blanchets and wait for a man whose whereabouts were unknown.

But she was willing to wait. Even if she were to leave the Blanchets one day, she would never stay with the Howard family again.

She hadn't forgotten how she and her mother were driven out of the Howard family’s mansion years ago.
