The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2507

Ivy, being one of the hosts, had returned early to the Howard Mansion with Balfour, slipping into an elegant gown that suited the occasion perfectly.

The dress hugged her curves just right, accentuating her graceful figure without revealing too much, lending her an air of nobility and sophistication.

Balfour was visibly pleased when he saw Ivy wearing the gown he had chosen for her.

“My dear lady, might I have the honor of asking you for a dance?” he inquired with a charming smile.

Ivy blushed, extending her hand and lifting her face with a swan-like elegance.

“Of course,” she replied.
