The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2276

Mara maintained a respectful smile as she spoke, “Oh, it’s no big deal. Balfour has been good to me for years. Taking care of you is the least I can do! You just go ahead and get on with your work, Balfour.”

As she mentioned Balfour’s care over the years, Alyssa felt a twinge of discomfort.

It was not that she felt Balfour should not look after his lifesaver’s sister but rather that she disapproved of how it was done.

Despite the deep connections between Mara’s sister and Balfour back in the day, they always believed that repaying a debt was enough; there was no need to entangle more favors.

Yet for years, Balfour’s frequent trips to M State were unstoppable, and in the end, they just let him be.

If Mara harbored inappropriate feelings for Balfour, what was he supposed to do?

That was their real concern.

Now that Ivy had finally tied the knot with Balfour and they were starting their life together, Mara suddenly flew back from overseas.

Alyssa could not guess what Mara was scheming, but her instincts were on high alert.
