The Kiss that Sparked it All

When Ellinor came out of the room with Baber, Quinton was still waiting at the door, glued to his phone against the wall.

Quinton immediately straightened up as he heard the door open, putting on his most respectful attitude.

Quinton looked surprised when he saw Ellinor with a kid. What the heck happened?

He’d been standing at the door the whole time, making sure no one disturbed Ms. Mendoza’s rest. So how did Ms. Howard’s kid come out of the room?

“Ms. Mendoza, why is the kid in your room?”

Ellinor responded, “I have no clue. I just saw him run in from the balcony.”

Ah, got it!

Quinton thought there was no way he would have let anyone in. He politely said, “I’m really sorry for the kid’s interruption. Let me handle this. You can go have your meal.”

Ellinor nodded and brought Baber to Quinton, but Baber clung to Ellinor’s hand tightly, refusing to let go.
