The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 969

Though Balfour was a bit miffed with Theo, he couldn’t help but muster a playful grin, lifting up his hands and spreading his arms wide. “I’m all yours then, husband of Ellinor.”

Theo’s brow furrowed at the nickname as a mixture of amusement and annoyance stirred within him.

In the end, he didn’t give Balfour a piggyback, not wanting another man clinging to his back, yet he couldn’t dismiss his wife’s commands. So, Theo stepped forward, bent down, and with his sturdy arms, he hoisted Balfour up, carrying him out of the hospital’s doors. All eyes were on them even before Theo set Balfour down in the car.

A handsome man carrying another equally handsome man was definitely a sight that turned heads.

The nurses at the front desk could barely contain their squeals as their eyes widened with surprise. They clamped their hands over their mouths to muffle their shrieks.

Patients around the hospital stole glances at them as their eyes filled with curiosity.

Balfour, however, felt incredibly uncomfortable. This was the first time he’d been carried like this by another man in public. He was mortified and afraid of being recognized, yet he was unable to jump down and walk on his own. Angrily, he shot Theo a glare before burying his face into Theo’s chest, hoping to hide his identity.
