The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chatper 685

Chapter 685

She was lounging comfortably on the couch, yawning and taking in the surroundings in a leisurely manner

So this was the Howard family’s mansion?

This was where she was born

Weirdly, she had no memory of this place

“Ellinor, can we have a private chat somewhere else? Patricia suddenly asked

Ellinor was not up for it. No need I can’t be bothered to move just spill it out here. This is your turf, I ain’t scared

What’s there for you to freak out about?”

Patricia was unable to convince her ‘Ellinor, I’ve underestimated you all along, but I ain’t going down without a fight!

Ellinor didn’t want to get into a tit-for-tat with her, she didn’t give a hoot about who would win or lose in an

argument with Patricial

But there was something she wanted to ask Patricia

“Ms. Howard, it’s just the two of us now, let’s cut the crap! Did the kid really go missing, or are you just putting on a

show?”

Using that innocent kid to mess with Theo was Patricia’s typical move.

Ellinor started to question the authenticity of Baber’s disappearance

Patricia, however, was wiping her tear-streaked face. “Do I look like I’m joking? I genuinely can’t find my kid”

Ellinor didn’t buy her crocodile tears, “If Baber really is lost, instead of crying here, why don’t you go out and look

for him? Even if the kid ain’t yours, you are supposed to ensure his safety

Patricias face changed, she knew that Ellinor had found out that the kid was adopted

“Yes, you’re right! The kid is not mine! But even if he’s adopted, he’s still the tie that binds me and Theo together!

Theo is a responsible man, and he would never abandon us! Ellinor, don’t even think about snatching Theo away

from me, it ain’t gonna happen!”

Ellinor wasn’t particularly bothered by the existence of the adopted kid, she just looked at Patricia and felt puzzled,

“Ms. Howard, don’t you get tired?”

Patricia laughed hysterically. “I’m not tired! I am willing to pay any price to keep Theo by my side because I love

him!”

Ellinor shook her head, “No, that’s not love.”

Patricia was indignant, “Then what is love? No one loves Theo more than I do! Including you!”

Ellinor looked at her with pity. “You’re just a freak!”

Patricia stood up in anger, “Ellinor, what do you know? One day. Theo will realize that I’m the one who loves him the

most!”

Ellinor was speechless. She chuckled, indicating that she didn’t want to deal with this crazy woman anymore.

Patricia stomped her foot angrily and turned around to leave, probably to look for the kid

After a while, a maid brought her a cup of coffee. “Ms. Mendoza, please have some coffee.”

“Thanks” Ellinor was feeling thirsty, she took the coffee cup and was about to take a sip, but was caught off guard

by a drop of bright red liquid on the white cup, which made her stop in her tracks.

That red liquid didn’t look like a beverage.

Ellinor was alert, she lightly touched the red liquid with her fingertip, then sniffed it. Was that blood?

Why was there blood on the cup?
