The Kiss that Sparked it All

In Ida’s office.

Ellinor was sitting at Ida’s desk, diligently going through the company’s financial reports for the last six months and

a few of the most recent projects.

Ida called her secretary and asked her to prepare a glass of milk for Ellinor.

Ida took the milk from her secretary and personally handed it to Ellinor. “Have some milk before you continue

reading.”

Ellinor grunted in acknowledgment and took a sip of the milk, but her gaze never left the computer screen.

At that moment, Ida’s phone rang, and she stepped aside to take the call.

After hanging up, Ida’s facial expression became complicated. “Boss…”

Ellinor’s gaze stayed fixed on the computer screen. “What’s up? Spit it out!”

Ida adjusted her glasses. “The call was from the head of the Blanchet Corporation.”

Ellinor’s hand movement faltered; as expected, the Blanchet Corporation was knocking on their door

“Hmm, what did the head of the Blanchet Corporation say?”

“The head of the Blanchet Corporation said that they’re very satisfied with the new office building we designed and

that they’re interested in working with us again. The Blanchet Corporation plans to develop a new project soon, and

they want us to undertake it, so they want to arrange a meeting to discuss

it.”

Ellinor looked up at Ida and asked. “What do you think?”

Ida also found the Blanchet Corporation’s actions unusual. Normally, people in the industry would fight over their

projects; it was rare for the Blanchet Corporation to actively seek out a partner.

Moreover, Theo had already discovered her whereabouts.

Something was definitely up.

After some thought, Ida said. “I think we should reject it. There’s no need for us to meet.”

Ellinor chuckled. “Why not take it? Who doesn’t want to make money?”

Ida looked at her in confusion. “Are you sure you want to take this project?”

Ellinor put down her mouse, leaned back in her chair, and slowly sipped her milk. “The problem isn’t whether I’m

sure or not, but the fact that the Blanchet Corporation hasn’t given us a choice. Even if we reject this project, they’ll

quickly come up with another one. Even if we refuse the project, they can find another way in. Since the Blanchet

Corporation came directly to us, it’s like they’ve laid their cards on the table. Let’s take this project and then see

what our next move should be.”

Having thought it through, Ida agreed. After all, Theo wasn’t easy to deal with.

“Ellinor, I understand. I’ll arrange a meeting with the head of the Blanchet Corporation and see what they’re up to.”

Ellinor lowered her head to drink her milk, but her mind was racing.

It seemed that her standoff with Theo had begun. Although it wasn’t what she had wanted, it was inevitable. Theo

knew that she cared about Ida, Chase, and the Crescent Society, so he would definitely target them.

She could only take one step at a time.

Ida stepped aside to return the call and arrange a meeting with the head of the Blanchet Corporation. Meanwhile, a

knock was heard at the office door. Assuming it was a subordinate bringing in documents, Ellinor casually said,

“Come in.”
