The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1371

Chapter 1371 

Driven by curiosity, she couldn’t help but ask when there was no one else in the elevator, “Ms. Gipson, do you like Byran?” 

Ida replied casually, “What do you think?” 

Belinda pondered. “I think you at least don’t dislike him; otherwise, you wouldn’t bother with him. But I feel you’re more suited for a mature man, not someone childish like Byran.” 

Ida gave a small smile, not commenting on what Belinda said. Instead, she asked, “You’re here to see Chase this early?” 

Upon hearing Chase’s name, Belinda’s expression changed, and she shook her head. “No, I’m here for Jacob.” 

The elevator doors opened, and Ida walked out slowly. “Alright, off you go.” 

Belinda didn’t manage to ask anything and felt a bit disappointed. 

Ida always seemed distant. Like just now, her demeanor was calm, and she had a smile on her face. It seemed like she was responding to Belinda, but she didn’t actually say anything. 

Belinda really admired strong women like Ida, who seemed to handle everything effortlessly and didn’t seem to care about anything. Unlike her, who was indecisive and had difficulty making decisions. 

Walking in the opposite direction of Ida, Belinda arrived at Jacob’s desk. 

Seeing Jacob busy typing on his computer, she took a deep breath and walked over. 

“Jacob!” 

Upon hearing Belinda’s voice, Jacob turned around, looking surprised, and then his expression turned serious. “What are you doing here?” 

Belinda went over to him and said, “Because of some special circumstances yesterday, I couldn’t explain things clearly over the phone. So, I’m here now to explain to you in person.” 

Jacob turned back to his computer, checking the data in the files, not looking at Belinda again, and said in an unfriendly tone, “I don’t have time right now. I have to present for our team in a meeting later. You should go back.” 

“Oh, it’s okay. Go ahead. I’ll wait for you in the cafeteria.” 

Belinda knew Jacob was angry because he had never been cold to her before. 

She was at fault for what happened yesterday and had to sincerely apologize. 

Belinda stopped bothering Jacob and turned to go to the cafeteria, but bumped into a man in a sleek suit and caught a whiff of a high-end men’s perfume. 

She was very familiar with this fragrance because it was Chase’s scent. 

Looking up, she saw Chase’s handsome face and noticed that he was smiling broadly.
