The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 317

Balfour rubbed the bridge of his nose, feeling a little bit fired.

He had always been so fond of Patricia that he really felt like spoiling her sometimes. After getting what she wanted, Patricia turned her head to look out the car window, a look of disdain on her face…….

She didn’t really care whether Balfour had her picture in his car, or if he thought about her when he was driving, she just wanted to outdo Pearl!

Everyone said she was lucky, born as a beloved princess of the Howard family.

However, after all these years, her status within the Howard family hadn’t surpassed that of a child who had been missing for over a decade!

Her father had spent a fortune building Pearl Moon in the expensive downtown area in memory of Pearl.

And with Balfour, she was always second to the missing Pearl.

As a child, to win Balfour’s affection, she copied Pearl, even having a mole tattooed on her forehead just like Pearl had, even though she didn’t like it at all.

Just because she was a daughter brought by her stepmother, Balfour didn’t like her when he was a kid, so she had to copy Pearl’s habits and preferences to win a bit of Balfour’s sympathy, and that’s how she got the status of being pampered by Balfour today!

In fact, not only Balfour, but she herself was living in Pearl’s shadow! This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

So, she hated Pearl, that dead child!

What was even more unacceptable to her now was that she wasn’t the most special existence for Theo either.

She was not willing to accept it, just not!

She should be the most important and special one to anyone!

“I suddenly feel a bit scared…” Patricia said tremulously.

Balfour thought Patricia was not feeling well, so he pulled over and asked gently, “What’s wrong? What are you afraid of with me here?”

Patricia gripped Balfour’s hand, looking anxious, “Whenever I think of Ellinor, I get scared… I always feel that she has a lot of hostility towards me, and now with what Haillie did, I am afraid she will retaliate against me…

“Don’t be afraid, I will have someone protect you, won’t let anyone harm you.”

Balfour thought of Ellinor’s rude behavior when she ignored him, and felt a bit upset, that tough girl was indeed not to be

underestimated.

He had already lost one Pearl, he wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt Patri again.

At this moment, a sports car driving in the opposite direction….

Ellinor glanced at Theo who was focused on driving, feeling a bit complicated, she said, “Theo, thank you.”

“Thank me for what?” The man glanced sideways at her.”

Thank you for helping me find a new witness in time today, otherwise this matter wouldn’t have been resolved so quickly.”

“How do you know the new witness was found by me?”

“Uh…” The man’s sharp question left Ellinor speechless.

Theo never said he found the new witness.

In his cognition, she was just an ordinary villager, and there were actually no reasonable way to obtain this kind of undisclosed information.

She couldn’t tell him it was her subordinate Chase who told her…
