The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 242

Ellinor looked at Haillie's injured foot and said, "I reckon Haillie's foot ain't got a torn ligament, just a bone dislocated from a sprain. I know a thing or two about resetting bones; no surgery is needed. Wanna give it a shot, Haillie?"

Haillie, teary-eyed, shot back at Ellinor, "No ligament tear? Quit your nonsense, Ellinor! Could the doctor possibly be wrong? Do you want me to distrust a professional and trust you instead? That's bonkers!"

Ellinor didn't bother explaining and moved toward the foot of the bed to touch Haillie's injured ankle...

Haillie immediately yanked her leg away, not letting Ellinor get close!

The movement caused her to break out in a cold sweat from the pain; she managed to warn weakly, "Don't touch me! Byran, stop her!"

Snapping back to reality, Byran quickly said, "Quit messing around, Ellinor. Haillie's already in enough pain, don't add to it."

Byran owed Ellinor a favor from a past incident. He understood she didn’t like Haillie, but Haillie was his sister's best friend, he had to protect her.

Ellinor looked at Byran seriously, "Mr. Howard, I ain't joking around. I really know how to reset bones. I guarantee Haillie will be up and about in a minute. Can I prove it?"

Byran was taken aback. Looking into Ellinor's clear eyes, he felt an inexplicable trust. He hesitated for a moment, turned to Haillie, and said,"Haillie, why not let Ellinor give it a shot? She might actually do it!"

Haillie was so angry she nearly fainted, "Byran! Do you think I'm not miserable enough?"

Byran looked uncomfortable, "Haillie, I think..."

Losing her patience, Ellinor pushed Byran aside, "Enough dilly-dallying! Hold her down; I'll do it!"
