The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2629

Balfour paused at the threshold of Ivy’s hospital room, taking a deep breath before he turned the handle and pushed the door open.

Balfour’s face turned a shade of thunderous gray as he shot a furious glare at the bodyguard stationed at the door.

You only have yourself to blame for being so careless, listening to that old woman talking so much and not rushing back to your precious wife’s side! It seems she doesn’t mean that much to you, does she? Just like how you moved on from your past love for my sister, Victoria?”

Balfour’s pupils dilated slightly, shocked that before he could even confront her, Mara was admitting to everything on her own.

“So, you really killed Victoria, did you?” he asked, voice steady but brimming with
