The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1316

Chase wasn't his usual happy-go-lucky self right now. He had a worried look on his face and said, "Yeah, he's not an outsider to you, but he sure as hell is to the Blanchet family. They're trying to keep a lid on this whole thing, and you're blabbing away to some guy who's got nothing to do with it? If he tells anybody else this, do you know what will happen?"

Belinda was taken back a bit, realizing she might've made a mistake. She grabbed her phone and said, "I'll tell Jacob not to let the cat out of the bag."

After she sent Jacob a message, Chase sighed.

"They're doing a DNA test on the body the cops found yesterday. They're being really thorough about it, so things are moving slowly. Let's just wait for the results; maybe it's not Mr. Blanchet?"

Belinda hoped with all her heart that it was not her uncle, but the cops found her uncle's damaged ID on the charred and unrecognizable body.

Chase continued. "Whether that body is Mr. Blanchet or not, we can't let my boss know about this, got it?"

Belinda nodded. "I got it. I was just panicking yesterday; that's why I wanted to call Ellinor. Good thing you were there to stop me, or I might have caused her trouble."

Chase handed her a tissue from the table. "Alright, if you need to cry, let it out."

Belinda wiped her tears. "No matter what, I will find out who killed my uncle and make them pay."

Chase nodded, but he wasn't totally convinced about Theo's death.

...

The Blanchet family’s Villa.

Sophia only found out about this in the morning and rushed over to the Blanchet's. She refused to believe that something had happened to Theo.
