The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1835

At the sound of Marissa’s voice, Ellinor turned to see her grandmother standing in the kitchen, wearing a heartwarming smile. “Ellinor, it’s time for breakfast. I saved some just for you.”

Ellinor nodded and took a seat at the dining table.

Marissa then instructed the house staff to bring the freshly prepared breakfast to her.

Afterwards, the elderly woman took a seat next to her granddaughter-in-law. “Ellinor, dig in.”

The old lady seemed to be in high spirits that day. She was practically glowing with joy. It wasn’t hard to guess that her grandson’s return was the reason for her cheerful demeanor.

“Grandma, why didn’t anyone wake me up this morning?” Ellinor asked while dutifully eating her breakfast.

Marissa was all smiles. “Theo asked us not to disturb you. He wanted you to sleep in a bit. He said you were tired from yesterday. Eat plenty, Ellinor. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and you two have been apart for three years. You must have missed each other a lot.”

Ellinor blushed furiously.
