The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 800

Ellinor calmly stated, "I'm the guest."

Patricia made a face like she just smelled something foul. "Guest? Would we ever invite you?"

Ellinor gave a small smile. "Grandpa Dean and Grandma Alyssa warmly invited me today. I couldn't say no, so here I am."

What?

Shocked, Patricia blurted out, "My grandparents invited you? Are you the one who saved my grandpa?"

Ellinor replied evenly, "I wouldn't say I'm a hero, but yes, I was indeed invited as a guest to your home."

Patricia was having none of it. She had made an effort to look her best for their guest, and now it turned out to be her nemesis, Ellinor!

Ellinor was the one who saved her grandpa?

Suspicion soon crept into Patricia's thoughts. She eyed Ellinor skeptically. "Was this all part of your plan, Ellinor? Setting a trap to get close to my grandpa, then pretending to save him?"

"Ms. Howard, you're reading too much into this. I have no reason to get close to your grandpa, nor the time to set up some elaborate scheme."

Patricia frowned as her gaze on Ellinor darkened. She descended a few stairs to stand in front of her.

With the stairs creating a height difference between them, Patricia tried to use her elevated position to intimidate Ellinor, glaring down at her.

But Ellinor just laughed. "What's the plan, Ms. Howard? Are you going to tumble down the stairs and blame me, or slap yourself and say it was me? Got any new tricks up your sleeve?"
