The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 87

Theo looked at her and said, "Granny's fine. Collin's taken her home."

Ellinor nodded in relief, "Alright, as long as Granny's okay. I gotta take off now. See you."

And with that, she started to walk away, but after a few steps, she stopped and turned around, "Why are you still following me?"

Theo raised an eyebrow, "Didn't you say you were gonna treat me to a meal?"

Ellinor smiled wryly, "I said I would treat Granny, and you were just a plus one. Now that Granny can't come, our meal is off."

Theo frowned, scoffing, "So I'll treat you instead. We can still eat, right?"

Ellinor, not interested, waved him off, "You go eat. I have other plans."

Theo squinted at her, "What plans?"

Ellinor frowned in annoyance, "Do I have to tell you?"

Theo stared at her coldly, "What do you think?"

This guy's control freak tendencies were too much to bear! Luckily, their marriage was short-lived if it was long-term, who could stand it?

In an exasperated tone, Ellinor said, "I have a graduation ceremony today. My classmates and I are having a get-together, and it might go late."

She explained clearly and was upfront, but wasn't seeking his approval.

Theo lit a cigarette, "University friends. You don't really keep in touch after graduation. Do you really need to go to this gathering?"

Ellinor glared at him, "I want to go! Does a gathering need to have a purpose? After graduation, we'll all be busy with our lives, and we might not have this opportunity again. I want to say a goodbye."

Then, Jonah Wyton gave him a call.

"Theo, where are you? Wanna grab a drink at Twilight Bar tonight?"

"Change of venue."

"Alright, where do you wanna go?"

"Club Vibe."

"What? Where did you say?"

Jonah's voice paused for a few seconds as if he doubted what he had heard.
