The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1825

Ellinor didn’t want to intrude on their reunion. She left Theo alone with the elders and gently led her four kids up the stairs.

Once in their room, Ellinor took a seat on the couch, seemingly calm. Her daughter, Layla, came over to her, asking, “Mommy, is that man really our dad?”

Ellinor gently lifted her gaze to her daughter as she nodded. “Yes, he is your dad. Do you like him?”

Layla scrunched up her face in confusion. “I don’t know, and I don’t know him. But if Mommy likes him, I like him!”

Raising an eyebrow, Ellinor asked, “So you think I like him?”

Layla nodded. “Yeah! You must really like him, Mommy!”

Caught off guard, Ellinor pulled her daughter into her arms and caressed her small face. “And how did you figure that out?”

Layla’s bright eyes sparkled. “Because you let him kiss you. If you didn’t like him, you wouldn’t let him kiss you.”

Ellinor sighed helplessly. “Oh! So, you did see that!”

Layla giggled. “Not just me. All my brothers saw it too!”
