The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1866

Theo came over and placed a comforting arm around Ellinor's shoulders, gently patting her. He led her inside the house, along with Balfour.

After making a few phone calls, Balfour returned to the living room and addressed both of them. "It's true that she's been out for a month now, but she hasn't been home. The latest we know is that she had been working a few jobs in Greenhaven and resigned the day before yesterday. Nobody knows where she is now."

Ellinor couldn't remain seated. She stood up and yelled, "It must be her! She's the one who took Baber! What is she planning to do?"

Balfour looked helplessly at his sister. He understood her anxiety about her child but had no useful information to offer her. "Ellinor, I've sent people to find her. Please be patient. If Patricia did take Baber, at least he is relatively safe. Baber was once a child she adopted."

This only fueled Ellinor's anxiety. "Balfour, do you truly not understand your sister? Do you not know why she adopted Baber in the first place? You know how she treated Baber! I hope Baber was abducted by someone else! They would only want money. Your sister probably wants Baber's life!"

Tears welled up in Ellinor's eyes as she spoke.

When she didn't have a child, she could face any adversity with a calm and composed demeanor. But now that she had children, they had become her greatest vulnerability. She could no longer remain as cool-headed as before.

Balfour remained silent. He couldn't refute Ellinor's statement.

If Patricia had indeed abducted Baber, it would be impossible to guess her motives.

Meanwhile, upstairs, Byran was on the phone with Ida when he heard the commotion from the living room. He furrowed his brows and listened closely.

Ida noticed his change in demeanor. "What's wrong?"

"I think I hear my sister's voice downstairs."

Ida sounded surprised. "Ellinor? What is she doing at your place this late?"
