The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 416

When Ellinor opened the door, she saw Patricia and Byran standing there, one behind the other.

The Howard family. What a pain in the ass!

"What do you want?"

She didn't have the time or the patience to deal with these two troublemakers right now.

Patricia glanced at Ellinor, then peeked into the room behind her. "Ellinor, I'm sorry. I've thought it through. I misunderstood you in the courtyard earlier. I thought you wanted me to kneel and apologize, so I did. And you definitely didn't mean to kick me. Maybe you were just lifting your foot to step and accidentally hit me. Ellinor, I'm sorry. I caused you to be misunderstood by Balfour and pushed into the water. I apologize to you. Can you forgive me?"

Ellinor watched Patricia's pitiful performance, pulling the corner of her mouth indifferently, "Ms. Howard, just a friendly reminder, Theo isn't in this room right now, so you don't have to put on a show!"

Patricia was taken aback, not quite believing her, and glanced into the room again.

Theo wasn't here?

Her current attitude was indeed for Theo's benefit.

Without Theo, there was no need for her to apologize to Ellinor.

Because she and Ellinor were pretty much at loggerheads, an apology wouldn't make any difference.

However, with Byran standing beside her, she couldn't treat Ellinor with her true attitude and feigned weakness again.

"Ellinor, don't overthink it. I'm genuinely here to apologize to you. I'm sorry; please forgive me."

Ellinor knew Patricia's true colors and wasn't moved at all.

Patricia's current attitude seemed sincere and weak, but in fact, she was pressuring and morally kidnapping her.
