The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 703

Balfour was feeling like Patricia was a stranger to him at this moment. Not wanting to dwell on it any longer, he took a deep breath. "Patri, I hope you weren't lying to me!"

Balfour didn't probe any further. Patricia heaved a sigh of relief, although she still felt uneasy. It seemed like Balfour was disappointed in her and no longer trusted her as much.

After such a long squabble, Balfour was also feeling knackered. He didn't look at Patri anymore and turned to Theo and Ellinor. "You guys should go now! Luckily, Baber's okay. Let's call it a day!"

Theo sneered. "You think you’re off the hook just like that? That's too easy! You've been grilling my wife as if she's the culprit, and now you're just gonna call it quits because you say so?"

Balfour frowned. "I just don't want to continue this. It's not that Ellinor is not a suspect! Theo, can't you just give it a rest?"

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Theo's eyes. "Mr. Howard, I know what a nitpicker you are. If you were sure, you wouldn't let my wife off the hook so easily! You're just trying to put an end to this because you know you've made a mistake!"

Balfour's face darkened, and his jaw clenched. "So, what do you want?"

Theo gently stroked Ellinor's head, like a father protecting his child. "I want you to admit your mistake to my wife and apologize!"

Balfour's eyebrows knitted together, and he glanced at Ellinor. "Theo, don't push it!"

How could the eldest son of the Howard family apologize to this little girl in front of all the servants because of what Theo said?

That was ridiculous!
