The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 81

She immediately spun around, pointing at Ellinor and spat out, "It's you! This must be your doing! That woman has to be a stand-in you found!"

Ellinor shrugged innocently, "Ms Veronica, are you determined to slap the 'bad woman' label on me today? Is that what will make you happy?"

Veronica snorted, "What do you mean 'slap a label'? You are a bad woman!"

SMACK!

Suddenly, a slap landed heavily on Veronica's face.

Marissa was fuming, the slap just now leaving her huffing and puffing.

"Veronica! Had enough yet? Kicked up a fuss at home, and now you're at it again in the police station? Ellinor is your sister-in-law. Why do you keep insulting her repeatedly?"

Veronica, her hand on her slapped face, was in disbelief and crying,

"Granny, you hit me? You've never hit me before, and now you're hitting me for Ellinor, who came into our family not long ago?"

When Veronica started crying, Marissa's heart softened, but what her granddaughter did today was way over the line!

Marissa gritted her teeth and scolded sternly, "I should have hit you long ago! If I'd disciplined you earlier, I wouldn't have spoiled you to this extent! Now apologize to Ellinor and try to get her forgiveness!"

"Granny! I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize?"

Veronica, in an emotional meltdown, screamed, "Ellinor is the bad woman! Everything I said is true! It's her! The woman at the hotel is Ellinor!"

Veronica, cursing and rushing towards Ellinor, furiously grabbed her by the throat, "Ellinor, admit it! Admit that you were a hostess at the Blanchet Hotel! You shameless woman."

Ellinor was shaken so much she couldn't speak.

The police officers in the station gathered around, "What are you doing? This is a police station. Stop it now!"

Marissa was about to faint, "Veronica, stop it now."

Theo, having finished his cigarette outside the room, walked in just in time to support his grandmother, then coldly looked at Veronica and ordered, "Let her go!"

Veronica instinctively shrank back, "Bro, this woman is bad!"
