The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1618

“Hmm. I’m going to check on the kids.”

With that, Ellinor headed for the door, followed naturally by Veronica.

Balfour pinched the bridge of his nose and slowly followed.

As soon as Ellinor came out, she saw her three little ones crowding around Bryan, begging for treats. There was no

doubt that Bryan had bought them loads of

snacks on the way.

“All of you, hand them over! I’m confiscating these. You can’t have too many snacks.”

Upon hearing Ellinor’s voice, the three little ones immediately straightened up and turned to look at her.

In unison, Layla, Tristan, and Baber both screamed, “Mommy!”

Ellinor walked up to her three children and gave each of them a light tap on the forehead. “Have you three

forgotten what Mommy’s told you? No sneaking snacks without Mommy’s permission!”

The three little ones hung their heads with their lips pouting.

Bryan, feeling sorry for the kids, approached Ellinor with the snacks, ready to argue on their behalf. “Sis! They don’t

eat these every day. Once in a while won’t hurt. We’re out for a fun day, so don’t scare the kids.”

Ellinor shot him a dissatisfied glance. “I’m scaring them? I’m their mother; why would scare them? It’s you who’s

dangling snacks in front of them and risking upsetting their stomachs. Who’s going to look after them if they get

sick? You?”

Bryan seemed defiant. Sis, these snacks are all from a supermarket. They’re not poisonous. They won’t make the

kids sick.

As their uncle, I promise you that if they get sick from these snacks, I’ll take responsibility and look after them.

So, sis, why not let them have a little fun today? Let them eat and play as they wish, okay?”

The kids, hearing their uncle championing for them, looked excitedly at their mother and tugged at her dress,

hoping she would agree with their uncle.

Ellinor definitely couldn’t agree. If she let them eat whatever they wanted, they would never stop. What if they got

sick?

She frowned in thought, considering how to break the news to the kids without disappointing them.

Just then, Balfour’s deep, authoritative voice echoed. “Why are you still here?”

“Bro?!” Bryan was startled and hid behind Ellinor like a child, who was afraid of a ghost. “Bro… when did you get

here?”

Balfour narrowed his eyes, responding with another question. “Am I not welcome?”

Bryan forced a laugh. “Of course not. I’m just surprised you’re here. I had no idea, hahaha…”

His awkward laughter died as he jabbed at Ellinor. “Sis, you could’ve told me that our brother arrived. You gave me

quite a fright.”

Ellinor rolled her eyes at him. “If you have a clear conscience, why are you afraid of him?”

Bryan was at a loss for words.

He hadn’t done anything wrong.

But he was afraid that his brother would interfere with his relationship with Ida, causing a rift between them and

upsetting his woman.

After seeing Uncle Balfour, the three children ran over and hugged his leg affectionately.
