The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1755

Marcus remained silent. Sure, he could reach out to the little lady, but he was in no mood for that now.

He had seen the messages that Ellinor sent him. But, because she only asked where they were and didn't explain why she was sightseeing with Bartlett, he chose not to reply.

Why didn't she clarify? Wasn't she afraid that he would misunderstand her being with another man?

Or did she not care about whether he misunderstood or not?

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt.

Three years! He was trapped for over three years! It was hard to imagine how many men approached her during this time with intentions that were less than honorable.

Every time he thought about it, his frustration grew. It was almost palpable.

At that moment, his sensible son, Tristan, handed him his phone. "Dad, you obviously care a lot about her. Why don't you just ask her directly? Don't keep mulling over this. There’s no need to lose sleep over it."

Marcus looked at his son and then looked at the phone in his hand.

Tristan urged him. "Dad, hurry up! If you don't call her now, Sophia will be back, and you won't get a chance to talk to Ellinor!"

With that thought, Marcus finally took the phone. After a few moments, he sent a video call to Ellinor using encrypted software.

The call rang for a while before it was finally picked up.

The screen and sound on the other side were chaotic.

After the phone was steadied, the camera finally landed on Ellinor's face.
