The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1612

Chapter 1612 

Byran comfortably nestled himself next to Ida, draping his arm around her shoulder without hesitation. “Think you can outdo us in the lovey-dovey department? I bet you can’t.” 

Ida shoved him off as her face contorted in disgust. “Compete with them by yourself?” 

Byran, used to her rejection, merely shrugged. “How can I compete by myself?” 

Ida ignored him completely. 

Ellinor, watching the pair, was both concerned and worried. 

She turned to Belinda. “Do your parents know about your wedding plans?” 

Chase finally loosened his hold on Belinda, allowing her to answer Ellinor properly. 

Belinda blushed and nodded styly. “Yes, they do.” 

Chase grinned confidently. “Not only do they know, they absolutely adore me, their future son-in-law.” 

Ellinor shot Chase a skeptical look. Her gaze then rested on Belinda. “Is that so? Have your parents met this guy?” 

“Yes, Ellinor. My parents have met Chase, and they quite agree with our marriage.” 

Once Ellinor understood the situation, she wasn’t surprised. Chase came across as a charming and polite gentleman. He was always smiling. It was no wonder the older folks, especially those who didn’t know him too well, liked him. 

“Since your parents agree, you can prepare for the wedding well.” 

With that said, Ellinor stood and headed for the door. 

Upon seeing her leave, Chase and Ida simultaneously called out to her. 

“Boss, where are you going?” 

Ellinor waved without looking back. “I’m heading back to the Blanchet Villa. My kids are waiting for me.” 

Chase quickly stood and reached out to stop Ellinor. “Boss, don’t leave. You rarely come by; let’s have dinner together.” 

“No thanks. It’s the weekend, and I need to spend it with my kids.” 

Chase sighed dramatically. “Ever since the boss had kids, she doesn’t care about me and Ida anymore.” 

Ellinor frowned and glanced at him disapprovingly. “If I didn’t care about you guys, would I have come over first thing in the morning?” 

“Since you do care, let’s get together and have dinner today. Boss, you could give me some wedding advice too.”. 

Ellinor was uninterested. “It’s your wedding, so figure it out yourself.” 

Chase didn’t let go. “But you’re family to me. I need you.”
