The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1425

Chapter 1425 

Bartlett turned to look at Ellinor, who was leaning against the headboard with a somewhat dazed expression. “I think, rather than resting, what Ellinor needs right now is someone to chat with.” 

Balfour frowned. “She probably doesn’t want to talk to you right now.” 

Bartlett shrugged. “Well, we don’t know for sure. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you step out and let me have a one-on-one chat with her? I bet I can cheer her up.” Balfour impatiently grabbed hold of him. “Enough of your nonsense! Come with me!” 

With that, he pulled Bartlett away. 

Bartlett had no choice but to grin and bear it. He called out to Ellinor before getting kicked out. “Ellinor, I’ll come see you again tomorrow, okay?” 

Ellinor just gave him a glance, her expression unchanging, before she turned her head and stared blankly out the window. 

After Balfour had dragged him out of the room, Bartlett straightened out his crumpled clothes and complained to his friend. 

“Balfour! That was really low of you! I finally had a chance to talk to Ellinor alone and seize an opportunity for myself.” 

Balfour shot him a stern look. “I suggest you lay low. Don’t upset her now when she’s already so distressed.” 

Bartlett scoffed. “Oh, so you’re aware that she’s upset? We both know who caused her to be in this state. Balfour, you should know that being with Theo won’t bring her any joy or happiness! Look at her now. Doesn’t this prove everything?” 

Balfour furrowed his brows. Yes, he agreed that being with Theo, that jerk, would only cause her pain. 

But… 

“Just because being with Theo doesn’t make her happy doesn’t mean being with you would. I’m telling you nicely to stay away from my sister. Both of you! You’re not any better!”, 

Bartlett spread his hands innocently. “I swear on my honor! When have 1 ever been the bad guy?! 

Balfour sneered. “Your love history isn’t exactly clean either. Stop putting on an act in front of me, or I’ll reveal it all and slap you in the face with the truth.” 

Bartlett smirked. “Well, we’re men. Who doesn’t have a past?” 

After he said that, he suddenly realized who he was talking to. 

Bartlett chuckled a bit guiltily. “I almost forgot. Balfour, you’re the legendary pure man. Still a virgin to this day. I concede defeat.”
