The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1070

When Ellinor was in the shower, her phone started ringing

Her phone hadn’t been charged all day, and after ringing for a while, it automatically powered off.

After her shower and drying her hair, she plugged her phone in to charge but didn’t bother turning it on to check it. She just hit the sack.

The next morning after breakfast, Ellinor concocted a reassuring excuse for her family and hit the road.

Marissa was a bit on pins and needles about letting her go out alone, but knowing Collin was picking her up eased her mind. She figured that Theo must have arranged for Ellinor’s protection.

Since it was the weekend, Moran would be coming over during the day to tutor Veronica. Veronica was up at the crack of dawn, getting herself ready to see him. She was also concerned about what Ellinor might be up to and wanted to tag along, but she didn’t want to miss her date with Moran. After mulling it over and seeing Collin pick Ellinor up, she figured she’d be in good hands with him and decided to stay put and wait for Moran.

Collin rode shotgun, accompanying Ellinor to Howard Mountain Villa in the sticks.
