The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1204

Bartlett gave her a light flick on the forehead, “Duh, my special feeling for you is obvious! If I can get you and the kid out of the country, I’ve still got a shot. But if the Blanchet family finds you, I’m screwed. Ellinor, are you playing dumb or are you really that clueless?”

After saying that, he playfully flicked Ellinor’s forehead again.

Ellinor lightly touched her forehead, which had been flicked. “Well, don’t get your hopes up too high! I know you’ve been a big help these past six months. Besides reciprocating feelings, I’m willing to do anything to repay you.”

Bartlett let out a sigh of disappointment. “Silly goose! Why are you so tense? I won’t force anything on you.”

The nickname “silly goose” sounded a bit odd in this context.

Feeling awkward, Ellinor gave him a glare. “Are you done resting? If you are, you should head home early. The lighting in the suburbs isn’t good at night, so it’s not safe to drive. It’s better to head back early.”

Bartlett leaned in close, pretending to be hurt. “You know it’s unsafe to drive at night, but you won’t let me stay over?”

Ellinor did indeed have no intention of letting him stay. “That’s not appropriate. Don’t you have work to handle at the company tomorrow? You should head back early.”

Indeed, he had rescheduled all his meetings to tomorrow, and there was a ton of work waiting for him.
