The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 5

Theo tilted his head slightly, his narrow eyes staring at the empty balcony.

After two seconds of silence, he casually ordered, “You guys go in first!”

Collin looked surprised but didn’t dare to question Mr. Blanchet’s orders. He could only signal the groomsmen behind him with a wave of his hand.

“Come on, follow me in!”

After everyone entered the villa, Theo quietly slipped away. At this time, no one noticed that he had made his way to the back door of the Mendoza Manor…

A girl came out from the back door of the Mendoza family, her steps firm, humming the wedding march.

Just a few steps in, her neck was suddenly yanked back. She was lifted off the ground, her feet dangling in the air, like a lamb caught in the act…

“Trying to escape?”

The man’s deep voice was hair–raising; his icy tone sent shivers down her spine.

Ellinor turned her head towards the man who sneak–attacked her, but she quickly recognized the man’s voice. It was Theo!

Just a glance from afar and Theo had identified her!

But that’s okay, she had a backup plan.

Ellinor turned to look at Theo, her voice trembling, stuttering, “Why… why did you catch me?”

Seeing the woman’s face turn towards him, Theo froze and immediately let go of his grip..

The woman in front of him had a face full of freckles, her eyebrows met in the middle, her lips thick, and her eyes adorned with colorful eyeshadow. She looked peculiar, even more exaggerated than the characters in the movies.

Ellinor saw Theo startled by her appearance and could not help but gloat. Playing dumb, she asked, “Are you here to pick up the bride? You’ve got the wrong way! Your bride is waiting for you in the villa next door!”
