The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2880

"I've told you, we're through. No, correction—we never even started. You never chose me from the get-go. Dahlia, please stop making things difficult for my wife."

With a gentle pull, Nolan intertwined his fingers with Regina's, their clasped hands a stark visual sting to Dahlia's already bruised heart.

"Fine, just fine! Every choice I've made over the years has been wrong. I left, and I missed my chance with you. Now I come back, only to miss you again. Nolan, you might as well admit you never gave me a shot. What's with this holier-than-thou act?

And Regina, you bitch, there's no need to gloat in front of me. You want to see me suffer? Well, I won't give you the satisfaction! I’m going to make sure you all regret this!"

Mid-rant, Dahlia charged headfirst toward a column in the grand hall. Nolan, quick as he was, still couldn’t prevent her desperate lunge.

In that moment, she was gambling on whether Nolan would soften, and it turned out she won the bet.

He still cared, but her stubbornness came at a cost. Her forehead collided with the column, leaving a bloody imprint.

Regina, shocked, clapped a hand over her mouth, unable to believe Dahlia’s drastic resolve.

The scene escalated quickly, almost to the brink of a catastrophe, drawing attention from everyone—including Regina's boss from upstairs.

"Alright, break it up; there's nothing to see here."
