The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 697

People's hopes began to morph into disappointment, and they were getting pretty ticked off, feeling like they were being played for fools.

The help of the Howard family began to kick up a fuss.

"Baber hasn't moved a muscle; does that look like he's coming back to life?"

"Give up on her! She's just pulling our legs!"

"He's not even breathing; how can he just pop a weird little pill and be back from the dead? If that was possible, hospitals would've gone belly up ages ago!"

"Mr. Howard even gave her a shot, but that woman is clearly making a mockery out of the Howard family!"

Balfour's face darkened; this was just as he expected. He squinted at Ellinor, wondering if she'd feel any shame.

Patricia saw the outcome she was expecting, gave a small chuckle, then started crying again.

"Ellinor, had your fun yet? My Baber's gone, and you're still messing with his body! If you've got beef, take it up with me, stop tormenting my child!"

Ellinor didn't respond; she just frowned deeply, staring fixedly at the child on the floor, hoping he would come back to life. She didn't want to give up, so she reached out to feel his pulse again.

With no response from Ellinor, Patricia seized the moment, rushing at her dramatically, flinging herself onto her, shaking her violently, and pleading with her. "Ellinor, can't you just let my child be? I'm begging you. I'll kneel down for you, okay?"

Seeing this, Theo quickly pulled Patricia back, "Calm down!"

After being touched by Theo, Patricia seized the opportunity and collapsed onto him with tears streaming down her face while looking up at him.
