The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 13

Sheila excitedly grabbed the coat and demanded, “Ellinor, where did you borrow this from? How did you get in touch with a man who can afford such expensive clothes?”

Ellinor glanced at the dress nonchalantly, “Is it pricey? A generous man lent it to me. I barely know him!”

Seeing her clueless look and not appearing to be lying. Sheila scornfully said,

“I bet you wouldn’t know a man who can afford such high–end clothes! Wash it and return it when you’re done using it. Don’t get into trouble because of greed! A man with taste wouldn’t be into a country girl like you!”

Ellinor casually laughed, “Oh right, sis you didn’t answer my question. Where is your boyfriend?”

Sheila’s face instantly turned sour, seeing that Ellinor seemed unaware of the details, she faked it with, “Uh… I changed my mind about getting married yesterday, so I’m still single. There is no boyfriend!”

Ellinor raised her eyebrows curiously. “You don’t want to get married? Why? The Blanchet family is top–notch. Don’t you like them?”

Sheila scoffed, “Top–notch family, so what! The man I want would come running at the flick of my fingers! That Theo is almost thirty and yet has no girlfriend. He must have something wrong with him. Maybe he can’t have kids! So, even if he’s head over heels for me, I won’t marry him and become a widow”

Ellinor wanted to laugh, and nodded, “Hmm, sis you really thought this through. Congrats on dodging a bullet!”

After packing her stuff, Ellinor went downstairs, said a quick goodbye to Arnold, and then left the Mendoza family with her suitcase.

Meanwhile, Sheila sneakily followed Ellinor’s taxi in her car. She was curious about who the man that lent Ellinor the coat.

The man who wore such high–end custom clothes must be a billionaire!

Yesterday’s chaotic wedding made her lose all her dignity. If she could take this opportunity to find a rich and handsome man, she could finally lift her head in front of her relatives and friends!
