The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1358

Chapter 1358

Ellinor spoke with a lack of enthusiasm. "Thanks for coming to see me, but I don't want to talk about this."

With a smile, Bartlett asked, "I’m just wondering, if you're willing to reconcile with Theo, where does that leave me?"

Ellinor looked at him with a sincere gaze through her thick, beautiful lashes and said, "Bartlett, you're my friend, and you'll always be my friend."

Bartlett's face fell. After a while, he chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"Forever? Ellinor, you're not leaving me any hope at all."

"There's no point in giving you false hope if I don't have feelings for you. That's not who I am.’ She said as she let out a yawn and stood up. "You guys enjoy your meal. I'm going to hit the sack:"

Belinda also got up. "Ellinor, let me help you upstairs."

Ellinor didn't refuse Belinda's offer and let her assist her upstairs.

Bartlett looked somewhat lost; his eyes became seemingly unfocused.

After a while, he squinted his eyes, reaching for the glass of water Ellinor had left on the table, intending to take a sip.

However, Chase stopped him.

Smiling, Chase said, "Mr. Rex, this water was sipped on by my boss."

Bartlett smiled. "I don't mind"

Still smiling, Chase said, "But she does."
