The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 970

Though Balfour wasn't thrilled about it, he was in a tight spot. His sister was adamant about him not walking, and he didn't dare defy her, so he ended up being carried upstairs by the man again.

When they reached the floor, Theo put him down at the front door and told him to open it himself.

Balfour punched in the pass code and opened the door. Noticing that Theo was about to come over to help him, he quickly waved him off and hopped into his apartment, successfully plopping down on his couch.

Theo and Ellinor stood at the door, watching Balfour settle down, and were soon ready to take off.

"Since you're here, why not come in for a bit and have a drink before you go?" Balfour invited them.

Ellinor wasn't too keen on checking out Balfour's room, but she was a bit wary of leaving him alone before the nurse arrived.

She was worried that once she left, Balfour would definitely attempt to walk.

With that in mind, Ellinor turned to ask, "Theo, are you parched?"

Theo understood Ellinor's implication as soon as he heard the question, so he nodded, "Yeah, a bit."

Ellinor said, "Then let's have a drink at Mr. Howard's place before we leave."

Theo agreed, following her into Balfour's spacious apartment and closing the door behind them.

Balfour said, "Ellinor, I'm a bit handicapped right now. Feel free to grab whatever you want from the kitchen."

Without any hesitation, Ellinor made her way to the kitchen.
