The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1000

Just as Ellinor was about to hang up the phone, she halted, "Spill it. Who are you, and what's up?"

The other party answered, "I'm near you! Look to your left, and you'll see who I am!"

Ellinor's gaze quickly shifted to the left, where she saw a silhouette waving at her from an alleyway.

It was Haillie, a face she hadn't seen in a while.

She had used a voice changer during the call, so Ellinor hadn't recognized her voice.

If Haillie had nothing to hide, she wouldn't use a voice changer, so Ellinor guessed something was up.

Ellinor watched cautiously and chuckled into the phone, "Haillie, is that you? If you need me, just say so. No need for these cloak and dagger games. You think it's fun or something?"

Haillie stood at the intersection, "I do need you. Come here; we need to talk."

Ellinor wasn't fooled. She politely laughed, "I'll pass. I'm almost at the Blanchet's. You can come in with me, and we can talk there."

After a failed car accident yesterday, Haillie was now being hunted citywide by Theo's people. She didn't dare to go home, stay in a hotel, or even step foot into the Blanchet’s house!

"I can't go to the Blanchet's. I heard Putnam and Marissa Blanchet are back. It'd be awkward to talk with them around. Come here, let's find a place without people."

Haillie was Patricia's good friend and was often used by her. Now that she was looking for Ellinor, it must be about Patricia again.

Ellinor wasn't playing ball, and she calmly said, "Then, I'm sorry. I'm dog tired today. If you're not up for coming to the Blanchet's with me, we'll have to pick this up some other day."
