The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1421

After lunch, Ida went out to take a call again, leaving her alone in the hospital room.

Knock, knock!

The sound echoed through the quiet hospital room.

Ellinor knew that Ida wouldn’t knock when entering. Her eyes lit up with anticipation as she called out, “Come in!”

Bartlett came in, carrying a basket full of fine food delicacies. His handsome face was adorned with a warm smile. “Ellinor, it’s been a while. Congratulations on the birth of your twins.”

Seeing that it was Bartlett who came in, the light in Ellinor’s eyes dimmed a little, and she forced a small smile. “Um, thank you.”

Bartlett set the basket of food aside and walked over to her bedside.

“I’ve been quite busy recently, and I thought you still had some time before your due date, so I didn’t want to disturb you. As soon as I had some free time, I gave Balfour a call, only to hear that you had already given birth, so I rushed over to see you.”

Despite it all, Bartlett had always been considerate towards her, so Ellinor nodded appreciatively. “You’ve gone through a lot of trouble. You didn’t have to come and see me, let alone bring such valuable gifts.”
