The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1436

Ellinor didn’t bite on Sophia’s subtle probing as her gaze once again fixed on the child nestled in Sophia’s arms. The child’s face was obscured by a mask, making it impossible for her to discern his features.

“How old is your little one?” Ellinor asked.

Sophia replied, “Our little Tristan just turned two this year.”

Ellinor’s gaze never wavered from the small face hidden behind the Batman mask.

While the mask hid his entire face, his eyes were exposed. They were a pair of deep, radiant eyes.

Upon realizing he was being watched, the child stared back at Ellinor, tilting his head slightly in what looked like curiosity. He was adorable.

Seeing Ellinor and Tristan lock eyes made a fleeting hint of caution cross Sophia’s face.
