The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 549

At this point, Patricia's face was kinda frozen and her expression was a bit off. She never expected Ellinor to spot a hole in her conversation with the waiter, Gavin.

"Mr. Howard, just take another look. When your sister was chatting with Gavin, they clearly had some hand-to-hand contact."

Ellinor rewound the video by a good ten seconds and played it back in slow motion.

"Look, their hand movements are pretty telling. Ms. Howard took something out of her pocket and slipped it into Gavin's hand on the sly.

Mr. Howard, do you reckon two total strangers would need to exchange items in secret after a few words of small talk?"

At this point, Ellinor's tone was laced with sarcasm, but she wasn't over the top. She was simply giving Balfour a taste of his own medicine for his previous coldness towards her.

Balfour didn't say a word. After watching the two videos Ellinor had pulled up, his expression gradually turned serious.

Then he stood up, looking deeply at his beloved sister, his eyes growing complex.

"Patri, did you know this waiter before?"

Although Patricia was feeling a bit guilty, she put on her best innocent face, fluttering her bright eyes and shaking her head, "I...I didn't know him before."
