The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2429

Chapter 2429 

Ivy hesitated to answer Balfour’s question directly. She wanted to trust him, but the fear of giving her heart only to end up hurt made her seek reassurance about his feelings. 

“I want to be with you, Ivy. I don’t want our relationship to be just some flimsy contract. Believe it or not, there’s plenty of time, and I’ll prove it to you.” 

They looked at each other in silence, tears already swirling in Ivy’s eyes. 

She wasn’t sure if she had finally received what she’d longed for, but her tears were a clear sign of her happiness. 

They fell asleep in each other’s arms, and when Ivy woke up the next morning, she felt a tight embrace around her waist. 

It wasn’t until Balfour nuzzled her neck that memories of the previous night came flooding back. Balfour had come to her in the wee hours and confessed his feelings. 

It all felt like a dream, so when Balfour asked her what she was daydreaming about, Ivy was still in a daze. 

“What are you thinking about?” 

“Huh? Oh, nothing, just… it all seems a bit unbelievable. 

Ivy shyly tucked in her neck, but Balfour gently rolled her over to face him. 

He kissed her forehead gently. 

“Still feels unbelievable? I’m right here with you. If you’re ever uneasy, just hold 

my hand.” 

Ivy looked down and smiled faintly, a scene that had only ever occurred in her dreams. 

“Alright, enough dawdling. Is your scene schedule tight this morning?” 

Ivy shook her head. “The script is wrapping up. I only have scenes in the afternoon. Are you busy at the office?” 

Balfour watched her, understanding that she was really asking if he could stay and spend time with her. 

Even for such a small request, Ivy couldn’t bring herself to ask directly. 

His heart ached at the thought. 

“Even if I’m swamped, I can skip it. Why do you think I hire staff? You’re my priority. I won’t go to the office this morning. How about I keep you company here instead?” 

Ivy’s eyes immediately lit up. “That’d be great! There was a movie I’ve been wanting to watch, but I put it off because I had no one to watch it with. Can we watch it together today?”

Balfour couldn’t say no. For years he’d poured all his energy into his company, leaving little time for himself. This was a rare moment of relaxation. 

Before Ivy could get out of bed, Balfour held her feet gently, inspecting the healing injury.
