The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 19

The girl in the wedding dress was Theo’s niece. She was getting hitched today and needed a bridesmaid. So, Theo brought her along.

Ellinor couldn’t help but retort, “Theo, don’t you know? Bridesmaids are supposed to be single young girls. I’m your newlywed wife. How can I be her bridesmaid?”

Theo frowned. Did he really not know?

The girl was surprised, “Oh my gosh! You’re Ellinor!”

So, the girl enthusiastically grabbed Elinor’s hand and introduced herself with a smile, “Hi, Ellinor! I’m Belinda, Theo’s niece! Uh, my bridesmaids got stuck in traffic on the overpass. We needed someone to step in last minute, so we didn’t think too much about it.”

Ellinor nodded, “I see.”

“Come on, Ellinor. Let’s get you into a bridesmaid’s dress!” Belinda pulled Ellinor towards the dressing room.

Ellinor glared at Theo before leaving. This guy promised her a job, but it turned out he just wanted her to be a free bridesmaid!

Seeing Ellinor all riled up, Theo couldn’t help but smile. Messing with her every now and then was quite amusing.
