The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 311

Haillie stood up in shock, shaking her head in denial, “No, it wasn’t me! You’re talking nonsense! Say one more word and I’ll sue you for slander!”

Zachary didn’t argue with her, instead turning to the police without hesitation, “It was this woman called Haillie who put me up to all this! One day, she followed Miss Mendoza from Pearl Moon all the way to The Bund of Trent River. After seeing Ellinor talking to me, a flyer distributor, she picked me for the job!

She found Ms. Mendoza’s lost phone, transferred a hundred grand into my account from it, then deleted the transaction history. Then she had someone pretend to find the phone and return it to the police station to Ms. Mendoza. Every single step was meticulously planned by her, all with the aim of making Ms. Mendoza the suspect!”

At this, Patricia sprang from Balfour’s arms in disbelief, looking at her good friend, “Haillie!… How could you do this? I told you not to mess with Ellinor anymore. What happened between me and Theo has nothing to do with Ellinor. I don’t like what you’re doing!”

Haillie shook her head in a panic, “It really wasn’t me! I didn’t…”

Seeing her denial, Patricia was disappointed and said nothing more. She took a deep breath, turned around and went back into Balfour’s arms to wipe her tears…

Having lost her friend’s trust, Haillie was a little overwhelmed, and then angrily looked at Ellinor, pointing at her, “It’s you! Ellinor, you set this villain up for me! To dodge the bullet, you had this guy Zachary pin the blame on me! Ellinor, you’re so crafty!”

Ellinor looked at her with a hint of scorn, “I just had my lawyer go find his wife and son, and saved them. I had nothing to do with the rest, and I just found out who he was accusing. So it’s you again,

Haillie.”

Haillie got more and more agitated, “Ellinor, don’t play innocent here. I won’t let you get away with this!

She turned around, her eyes welling up with tears, and said to Balfour, “Balfour, you mustn’t believe Ellinor. She’s trying to clear her name and deliberately framed me!”

Balfour looked at Haillie, then at Ellinor, his eyes complex…

Two officers walked towards Haillie, handcuffs in hand.

“Haillie, please cooperate with our investigation!” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Patricia, save me…” Haillie backed away in panic, unwilling to be cuffed.

Patricia was angry and heartbroken. She walked over to Ellinor, tried to take her hand, but was politely avoided by Ellinor.

With a look of embarrassment, Patricia withdrew her hand in disappointment and apologized, “Ellinor, I’m sorry… I didn’t know things were like this… You’ve suffered a lot these days! Haillie did this because of me… she made a rash decision… Could you stop pursuing this, give her a chance, and forgive her?”
