The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 399

Byran was relieved to see that she didn't seem upset. "That's good! As long as you're not angry, we can still be friends!"

Ellinor found the conversation dull and stopped paying him any attention.

"Ellinor, to be frank, I really like you!" Byran scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

Ellinor stopped midway through eating her chicken wing and looked at Byran's reddening face with a poker face. "Oh, well, thanks for the affection!"

Seeing her nonchalant reaction, Byran complained. "Hey! Why aren't you reacting?"

"And how should I react?" Ellinor picked up a fan to fan the charcoal, making the fire bigger. The chicken wings would be tastier if they were a bit charred.

Byran's face turned sour. "Are you kidding me? I'm confessing my feelings to you!"

Ellinor was unimpressed. "Just to help Patricia Howard get rid of a love rival, right? You think I'd take you seriously?"

Byran crossed his arms and admitted. "Alright, I admit, while that part is true, it's not the main reason anymore! Ellinor, I'm having these special feelings for you. I can't explain them, but I just don't find you annoying anymore!"

"Byran."

A soft voice called for Byran from behind him.

Byran turned to see Patricia emerging from the villa. He looked worried. "Why are you wearing so little?"

Ellinor seemed reluctant, worried that he might burn her chicken wings. "Are you sure you can handle it?"

Byran was met with skeptical eyes, despite his good intentions. He emphasized. "Of course I can! My friends and I often go for barbecues during vacations. They all say I make delicious chicken wings!"

Ellinor finally gave up her spot. "Is that so? Well, I'm in for a treat then!"

Byran was ready to show off his barbecue skills and impress Ellinor.

At that moment, Patricia came over and linked arms with Ellinor. "Ellinor, leave this to Byran. Let's go chat in the gazebo over there. You need a break too!"
