The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 84

Veronica got hauled into an interrogation room and grilled for over twenty minutes.

When the cops came out of the room, Collin went over to chat with them, then returned to spill the beans to Theo and Marissa.

"The cops got to the bottom of things. Today's mess was cooked up by Ms Blanchet and the middle-aged dude named Morgan."

"They found evidence of their communication on their devices. They planned to lure Ms Mendoza to the mall, then knock her out and drag her to a hotel, trying to frame her for prostitution.

"Ms Mendoza accidentally dropped her phone and wallet, which were picked up by a woman dressed like her. Morgan mistook the woman for Ms Mendoza, put a sack over her head, knocked her out, and took her to the hotel.

"The silver lining is that things didn’t escalate in the hotel. The guy didn't get what he wanted, and the woman who got nabbed by mistake wasn't a prostitute. However. Ms Blanchet screwed up, and she’ll be in the slammer for 15 days."

This floored Marissa, and she finally passed out.

Theo instantly caught his grandma and barked at Collin, "Call an ambulance!"

"Right away, Mr Blanchet!" Collin immediately whipped out his phone to dial emergency services.

Ellinor calmly said, "No need, I've already called an ambulance. It should be here any minute." As soon as she finished her sentence, paramedics rushed in with a stretcher, put the unconscious Marissa on it, gave her an oxygen mask, and quickly loaded her onto the ambulance headed for the hospital.
