The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1085

Chloe didn’t give a hoot if Karan wanted to grab a bite or not. She only cared about the person who was willing to

donate money to the monastery, and thus she cheerfully dragged Ellinor away, “Let’s go, Ellinor! I’ll take you to get

some grub. Karan will get her own when her stomach starts to growl!”

Ellinor didn’t want to disturb Karan’s spiritual practice, so she gave a respectful bow to Karan who had nurtured her

and then trailed behind Chloe.

As they stepped out of the main hall, they saw Bartlett under a big tree outside, plucking leaves.

He was looking up, so his side profile was under the glow of the sunset through the leaves, making him look even

more handsome.

Such a charming dude didn’t belong in a monastery, he could blow his cover.

Bartlett seemed to feel the gaze on him. He tumed to look at Ellinor, and said, “Done talking to Karan?”

Ellinor replied with an indifferent tone.

Chloe glanced at Bartlett, then at Ellinor. She was sensing something, so she grinned, “Ellinor, is this hunky guy your

friend?”

Ellinor frowned a bit, “Sort of.”

Chibe looked at Bartlett’s neat attire and couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up, “Why don’t you invite him to lunch

then?”

Bartlett responded enthusiastically, “Really? I’d love to!”

Ellinor gave him a sideways glance, “You were just turning up your nose at the simple food at the inn; the food here

is even more basic, so are you sure you want to eat it?”

Bartlett shrugged it off with a smile, “Why not? I’ll give it a shot! If you never try, you’ll never know, right? Besides,

this isn’t just any vegetarian food; it’s from a monastery! I heard eating monastery food can cleanse the soul.”

Chloe laughed along, “Right on! This gentleman’s got it. Veggie meals can really calm the soul; it’s good for you.”

Bartlett replied with a smile, “Well, thank you then.”

Ellinor scoffed, “You’re not afraid eating this meal will blow your cover?”

Bartlett was taken aback, “What?”

Ellinor mocked impatiently, “I mean, a handsome guy like you shouldn’t be hanging around a monastery, let alone

eating vegetarian food. You might reveal your true colors!”

Bartlett paused before breaking into a laugh, “Ellinor, should I take that as a compliment on my good looks?”

Ellinor ignored him. She picked up her pace and followed Chloe.

Truth be told, she wasn’t hungry at all, but coming back here made her miss the taste of her childhood, so she at

least wanted to try some.

But when it was time to eat, Ellinor couldn’t stomach it.

The taste was familiar, but she was full. Pregnancy had altered her taste buds, making it hard for her to swallow the

veggies that were mixed with carrots. She held a fork and took a few bites.

Surprisingly, Bartlett, who was picky about the food at the inn, found the monastery’s vegetarian food to his liking.

Not only did he finish his portion, he even polished off the bit Ellinor couldn’t finish.
