The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2125

Chapter 2125 

Ivy clutched at her heart, realizing that these thoughts were becoming increasingly dangerous. 

“How could someone like me, who grew up in such a messy household, ever be worthy of you? Besides, you’ve only ever seen me as an actress from the beginning to the end…” 

With a bitter smile, Ivy added, “How can I ever fall for anyone else after meeting someone like you? You’re really cruel, you know!” 

Then, as if making a bold decision, she stuck out her tongue playfully, “Sorry, actually, it’s not your fault. I shouldn’t have been so presumptuous. From now on, I’ll face reality. I’ll work hard to draw a clear line between us, so I won’t make things difficult for you.”

Sighing deeply, Ivy got up and went downstairs. 

Alyssa and her husband were already seated at the dining table, and upon seeing Ivy, she called out with a cheerful tone. 

After yesterday’s encounter with the couple’s intimate scene and the late wake-up of Ivy today, Grandma’s smile grew even more pronounced. 

Aware that Balfour wanted their grandmother to misunderstand, Ivy didn’t bother to explain. 

“Good morning, Grandma and Grandpa!” 

“Good morning, Ivy! Come join us for some pastries. Don’t be like that boy Balfour, who I had to force to drink a glass of milk before he left. Drinking Americano first thing in the morning? Can his stomach even handle it?” 

Feeling the grandma’s care for Balfour, Ivy couldn’t help but smile. 

“Drinking Americano is for staying alert. I’ve already prepared some snacks for him at the office. He’ll eat if he gets hungry.” 

Dean and Alyssa nodded, “You young people really understand each other better. He always complains that having breakfast at home takes too much
