The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1438

Chapter 1438 

Adrian pouted his small mouth as disappointment etched across his face. “But, Mommy… I like them both…” 

Children were always, in their innocent ways, a touch greedy. 

Ellinor, despite usually spoiling her kids, always made sure to establish firm principles when they were needed. She never wavered. 

“You can come and ask Mommy if you want another one, but it’s not okay to just take your brother’s. He likes his balloon too, and if you take it, he won’t have one. How would you feel if you were in his shoes, Adrian?” 

“Mommy, I… I understand now…” Adrian’s eyes filled with regret as he turned to his brother, Baber. “I’m sorry, Baber. Let’s share the balloon. You can play with mine 

too!” 

Baber, with a relieved smile, nodded. “Yeah! Let’s play together!” 

Children were quick to forgive and forget. Their reconciliation was swift and simple. 

Their youngest sister, Layla, followed behind her brothers; clutching her pink bunny-shaped balloon. Although she was the smallest, she seemed to be the most mature, rolling her eyes at her brothers’ childish squabble over a balloon. 

Veronica clapped her hands together to catch the attention of the three kids. “Alright, everyone. Grab your balloons and get in the car. Aunt Veronica is taking you all to get some pizza.” 

The trio lined up and climbed into the car eagerly. 

As the children settled into the car, Ellinor followed suit. 

Bartlett, trailing behind her, couldn’t help but express his thoughts. “Children can be a handful. Ellinor, you’re a great mother. It’s not an easy task.” 

Ellinor responded nonchalantly, “It’s not so bad. It’s all about being aware of each child’s feelings and making sure everyone’s treated fairly. I’m a master at balancing it all.”, 

With that, she climbed into the car, slamming the door shut behind her. 

Bartlett shrugged and headed towards the passenger seat of the car, only to be beaten to it by Veronica. 

Veronica hopped into the passenger seat, leaving Bartlett standing outside. She rolled down the window to stick out her tongue at him. “Sorry, Bartlett, with the kids in the car, there’s no room for you. We can’t overload the car now, can we? You’ll have to catch a cab. Bye!” 

With a wave of her hand, she signaled the driver to start the car. 

Bartlett was left standing alone with a bemused smile on his face as he watched the Blanchet family’s car drive away.
