The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 314

Ellinor got Theo's drift.

"Oh, Mr. Quinne was a senior from our university's law department. He is warm-hearted. We owe our problem-solving this time to him."

"Warm-hearted?" Theo snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, gazing at her, "He's quite a hard man to please in Greenhaven, yet he's willing to help you. You guys must be pretty close, huh?"

Theo was clearly questioning her.

Ellinor didn’t feel like explaining.

She couldn't find a reasonable explanation at the moment, and she also didn’t want to expose her other identity.

The more words, the more mistakes. So she chose to keep quiet.

Just then, Belinda popped up, holding a small bucket, dipping a grapefruit leaf into the water and splashing it at Ellinor, "Ellinor, congrats on turning the tables!"

Before Ellinor could react, she was splashed with water, choking and coughing...

Seeing this, Theo frowned, pulling Ellinor into his arms and wrapping her in his coat, "What the hell are you doing?"

Belinda looked innocent, "I'm just trying to get rid of Ellinor's bad luck!"

Theo scowled, cradling Ellinor like a small animal, wiping the water off her forehead, "Looks like you're the unlucky one here. Get that stuff away from her and stay back!"

Theo was pissed, and Belinda, scared, quickly stepped back, but still defended herself, "How could you say that about me? I came especially to pick up Ellinor, even searched online for ways to get rid of bad luck, and bought these grapefruit leaves and special bad-luck-removing water!"

"She's allergic, just got out of the hospital, and you want her back there?" Theo's face turned even darker.

Belinda paused, finally understanding why Theo was so tense, and said guiltily, "Ah! I forgot! Sorry!"

"Don't touch her with mystery stuff ever again!"
