The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1705

Baber, holding the kite, approached Ellinor’s room and gave the door a gentle knock.

After a brief wait at the door, it was Adrian who came to let him in.

Adrian, upon laying eyes on the kite, snatched it eagerly away from Baber. “Finally, it’s back! We need to keep this safe for our next visit to the park. I’ll be the coolest kid there!”

Adrian, having already run off with the kite in search of a place to stash it, didn’t respond.
