The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1668

Balfour warned him in a grave tone. “With Theo's issues bothering her, you shouldn’t add to her troubles."

Byran naturally felt for his sister, but he was also concerned about their ailing father. "But..."

Balfour warned him again. "No calling her!"

Byran obediently acquiesced, saying no more. But after glancing at his father lying on the hospital bed, he decided to ask his sister for help after all.

Balfour had only forbidden him from calling their sister. He didn't say anything about seeing her in person. So, Byran decided to go straight to the Blanchet Villa and request her presence.

That wouldn't be disobeying his brother's instructions.

The following day.

McNeil woke up, refusing to eat. His eyes were dull and lifeless, completely focused on Byran. "Where's Pearl? When is she coming to see me?"

Byran coaxed him helplessly. "Dad, eat something first. I haven’t called Pearl yet. It’s too early; she might still be asleep.”

Hearing this, McNeil felt like his son was just tricking him, and the light in his eyes dimmed even further.

He refused to eat, take his medicine, or talk.

So, Byran had no choice but to leave him in the care of their household staff. Taking advantage of Balfour's absence, who had gone to calm down their grandparents, he left the hospital for the Blanchet residence.

...

The Blanchet Villa.

When Byran arrived, the Blanchet family was having breakfast.
