The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 862

Patricia’s sob story didn’t pull any weight at all. Her eyes filled with resentment, glared at Ellinor, “No, no… Ellinor, you made up these lies to smear me! It’s you! It’s all your plot! You’re out to get me! I won’t let you have your way

Unable to turn the tide, Patricia lost her cool and dropped her act. She lunged at Ellinor, trying to choke the life out of the one who kept screwing up her plans…

Yet, she didn’t even manage to lay a finger on Ellinor before Theo had her wrist in a firm grip. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Ellinor, she’s a girl from a poor family, she wants riches and luxury, everything she’s done is to win your favor, so she’s trying her best to drive a wedge between us, that way she can successfully become a rich lady! You absolutely can’t trust her
