The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 932

Ellinor yawned sleepily, "No biggie. I just noticed that you have a fairly spacious spot here! Mr. Rex, mind if I sit next to you?"

Bartlett chuckled, "Not at all. I’m just worried others might."

As he said this, he shot a glance at Theo.

Theo didn't look up. He was engrossed in his phone, propping his forehead up with one hand.

Ellinor barely glanced at him before she turned away, reaching for some snacks on the table.

A sci-fi movie was playing on the TV, but no one was watching.

Ellinor slouched a bit, munching on her snacks, her eyes fixed on the changing scenes on the screen, deep in thought.

Jonah perched on the arm of the sofa, chatting with the girls and occasionally joking with Kemp.

The atmosphere seemed relaxed, but an undercurrent of tension was palpable.

"Ellinor, I've seen your photo album. You looked stunning in that wedding dress. It’s a shame I only got to see the pictures, not you in person," Bartlett poured her a soda, grinning.

Ellinor accepted the soda, expressed gratitude, and placed it on the table, untouched.

Her move caught the eye of the man on the nearby couch. His gaze was inscrutable.

Setting down the soda, Ellinor said to Bartlett, "I'm not all that. Wait till you get married. Then you'll see your bride in a wedding dress."

Bartlett smiled, "Right you are! I hope I get to marry the girl I love. I hope she could be..."

It seemed Ellinor knew what Bartlett was about to say next. She frowned, but before he could finish, Belinda's voice echoed from upstairs.

"Ellinor!"
