The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chatper 1406

Chapter 1406

Marissa was worried that Ellinor still hadn’t forgiven Theo. She worried every day that her grandson might not win

this wonderful granddaughter-in-law back. Afraid that Ellinor might misunderstand her intentions, Marissa quickly

explained the reason for her arrival.

“Ellinor, honey, don’t get it twisted. I’m here today just to see you, not because of your baby. Even if you weren’t

pregnant now, I’d still come to see you. I swear!”

As she said this, Marissa humorously raised her hand, making a swearing gesture.

After seeing this, Ellinor paused. She was a bit amused and gently pushed down Marissa’s swearing hand. “Alright, I

believe you. Marissa, you don’t have to do this. You’re really making me feel overwhelmed.”

Upon hearing this, Marissa felt a bit relieved and withdrew her hand.

“Ellinor, it’s fine as long as you believe me. My fear is that you might think I’m only concerned about your baby.

Although I desperately want a great-grandchild, I’m not the kind of person who only cares about that. In my heart,

you’re the most important.”

Veronica nodded vigorously, trying to back up her grandma. “Seriously. Grandma really cares about you. According

to Grandpa, she even talks about you in her sleep.”

Ellinor gave a wry smile. She was clearly amused.

Marissa looked at Baber, who was cuddling up to Ellinor, and saw clearly how much Ellinor cared for him; otherwise,

the kid wouldn’t be so attached.

She realized this situation was quite rare. Baber wasn’t Ellinor’s biological child, yet Ellinor treated him like her own.

Such a kind-hearted granddaughter-in-law wasn’t easy to come by.

If Theo let Ellinor leave again, she’d be very disappointed.

When Baber saw the Blanchets walking in, he wasn’t scared, but he thought they were there to take him away, so

he clung tightly to Ellinor, not wanting to leave.

Feeling the little guy’s unease, Ellinor gently patted him to soothe him. “It’s okay; don’t be scared. No one’s here to

take you away.”

Baber finally relaxed a bit.

Ellinor politely asked, “Marissa, have you had breakfast? Would you like to eat something here?”

Marissa waved her hand. “No need; Veronica and I have already eaten at home.”

Ellinor nodded. “Alright, good.”

But Marissa’s gaze became a bit probing. She glanced at the Howard family’s servants that were waiting on the

side, leaned closer to Ellinor, and whispered, “Ellinor, are the Howards giving you a hard time because you’re my

granddaughter-in-law?”

Ellinor shook her head lightly. “No. They’ve all been very good to me.”

Marissa frowned in confusion. “Really? I thought the Howards would not be so friendly to us Blanchets.”

The “us Blanchets” the old lady used obviously included Ellinor.
