The Kiss that Sparked it All

Today, old Mrs. Bagley mistook Ellinor for their long–lost daughter as soon as she saw her. Thus, old Mr. Bagley got the idea for Ellinor to become his granddaughter. Luckily, she was sharp enough to interrupt the old man before he could even open his mouth, not giving Ellinor a chance to accept.

It was ridiculous! If Ellinor had the backing of the Bagley family, even if she was just temporarily playing the part of the Bagley family’s granddaughter, it would elevate her social status and make her more eligible to compete with her for Theo.

How could she let Ellinor surpass her?!

Absolutely not!

Ellinor responded to Patricia’s words calmly, “I heard that it’s Mr. Howard’s grandfather’s birthday today, so I came here after work.”

Patricia’s heart was filled with dark thoughts, but her face was all smiles. She didn’t care whether Ellinor was willing or not, and she directly grabbed her arm.
