The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2429

Ivy hesitated to answer Balfour’s question directly. She wanted to trust him, but the fear of giving her heart only to end up hurt made her seek reassurance about his feelings.

“I want to be with you, Ivy. I don’t want our relationship to be just some flimsy contract. Believe it or not, there’s plenty of time, and I’ll prove it to you.”

She wasn’t sure if she had finally received what she’d longed for, but her tears were a clear sign of her happiness.

They fell asleep in each other’s arms, and when Ivy woke up the next morning, she felt a tight embrace around her waist.
