The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2507

Chapter 2507 

Ivy, being one of the hosts, had returned early to the Howard Mansion with Balfour, slipping into an elegant gown that suited the occasion perfectly. 

The dress hugged her curves just right, accentuating her graceful figure without revealing too much, lending her an air of nobility and sophistication. 

Balfour was visibly pleased when he saw Ivy wearing the gown he had chosen for her. 

“My dear lady, might I have the honor of asking you for a dance?” he inquired with a charming smile. 

Ivy blushed, extending her hand and lifting her face with a swan-like elegance.

Balfour smiled and brought her hand to his lips for a gentle kiss. 

“Remember, I will always be by your side, no matter what.”

“They make such a lovely couple, don’t they? Youth is a splendid thing.” 

“She may be from the entertainment industry, but she carries herself with a distinction that’s rare among actors.” 

“Such a handsome pair. No wonder Balfour invested a fortune in a studio for Ivy!” 

The murmurs from below reached Ivy’s ears, but she paid them no mind. 

Descending the ornate staircase, they approached Dean and Alyssa, who were adorned in matching evening attire.

vy embraced Alyssa first. “Happy birthday, Alyssa.” 

Alyssa chuckled, patting Ivy’s back affectionately. “Thank you, dear. Seeing you two so happy brings me joy as well. I’ll certainly try my best to stick around for the
