The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1713

Chapter 1713 

Thaddeus didn’t want to part ways. He was deeply in love with this woman. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have humbled himself to come looking for her. 

“Bertha, I know you don’t like Sophia, but she’s my own flesh and blood. I can’t abandon her.” 

Bertha replied indifferently. “I don’t dislike Sophia. She’s the one who doesn’t like me and refuses to accept me. I don’t want to force her, and I don’t want to force myself either, Thaddeus. I hope you can understand my decision.” 

Thaddeus was frantic. “I can’t understand! We can’t just get a divorce like this. We’ve spent most of our lives together. Marriage isn’t something you can just walk away from!” 

Bertha looked helpless. “Thaddeus…” 

Thaddeus raised his hand to stop her from speaking. “Enough! If you’re willing to come back with me, then we can all go back together as a family. If you’re not, then I’ll have someone bring my belongings over, and I’ll live here with you!” 

Bertha furrowed her brows. “What are you doing? Are you going to act like a child at your age?” 

Their daughter, Lea, interrupted them. “Dad, you’re not put off by this pigeon coop anymore?” 

Thaddeus waved her off. “Shoo! I’m talking to your mother. You’re still a kid, so don’t interrupt. Bertha, tell me, are you coming back with me? Or should I live here with you?” Bertha was at a loss for words. She knew Thaddeus well enough. He was a man of his word, and he would actually have his belongings moved over. 

This was a place owned by an old friend of hers who could come back at any moment. 

Just as Bertha was worrying about how to talk to Thaddeus, Lea suddenly stood up and whispered something into her ear. 

After hearing what Lea had to say, Bertha was stunned. She then looked at her daughter, seriously considering whether her suggestion was feasible. 

Seeing this, Thaddeus frowned deeply. “Lea, what kind of harebrained idea are you giving your mother now?” 

Lea shrugged innocently. “Dad, all I did was try to convince Mom to go back with you. Stop blaming me, okay?” 

Still skeptical, Thaddeus turned to his wife. “Bertha, what did Lea tell you?” 

Bertha snapped back to reality and looked at him. “Lea suggested that we’d go back with you now, on one condition.” 

Thaddeus was overjoyed to hear this. “Okay, tell me. I’ll agree to any condition, as long as it’s within my power. Even if you want the moon, I’ll get it for you.” 

Lea clapped her hands. “Yay! Dad, you better keep your word. I’m bearing witness here.”
