The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1640

Ellinor looked at Lea with a sense of intrigue. “Hmm? What are you talking about? What’s different?”

Lea’s face was a mix of surprise and admiration. “Marcus’ attitude towards you is totally different from the way he treats Sophia.”

This topic seemed to pique Ellinor’s interest. She propped her cheek on her hand and raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Really? How so? Do tell, I’m listening.”

Marcus felt like slamming his fist on the table. If only he could stand up, he’d have scooped up this little chatterbox and sent her on her way.

“Ellinor, you…”

“Shh!” Ellinor held a finger up to her lips, signaling for Marcus to hush up and be patient. She then turned her attention back to Lea. “Go on. Continue with what you were saying.”

Lea was more than happy to chat with Ellinor and obediently continued. “Marcus seems very concerned and attentive towards you, while he’s quite indifferent to Sophia. He hardly ever initiates conversation with her, and his responses to her are quite cold. I don’t know why she insists on keeping a man who clearly doesn’t love her around.”
