The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1920

Still, Balfour decided to follow Leila’s tracks with Ivy.

The taxi pulled up to the Howard Mansion, and Leila rushed to pay the fare before dashing through the gates.

After high school, her family couldn't afford to send her to college. With no other choices, she started job hunting and struck gold with a housemaid position at the Howards', simple work with generous pay.

But more importantly, it was here she met Balfour Howard.

She had fallen in love for Balfour!

To her, he was a man high above her reach. She never dared to dream, just content with admiring him from a safe distance.

Then came Ivy, an ordinary girl who managed to become Balfour's wife. Why Ivy?

Ivy was clever, indeed. Who would have thought of fingerprint analysis to prove her innocence?

Leila had to hurry home and wipe away all evidence.

Then Ivy would have no way to prove she hadn't poisoned the old couple!

Back at the house, Leila didn't bother to take off her shoes, heading straight for the kitchen!

But as she reached for the cloth to wipe the evidence away, Ivy walked in, pushed her aside, and snatched the pot. "Leila, what are you doing?"

Stunned, Leila tried to grab the pot back from Ivy's hands.

Ivy, holding the pot, backed away as Balfour suddenly appeared. He pulled her behind him, standing protectively in front, and demanded, "What do you think you're doing?"

"Ah!" Leila hadn't expected Balfour to be home too. She fell to the ground, unable to get up.
