The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1785

Tracy scoffed. “I’ve seen your type before. You’re just after the inheritance Arnold has, aren’t you? Dream on! I’ve held my place in the Mendoza family for years. I’m not just a stay-at-home mom!”

Marlinie finally understood why they were being held here. This mother-daughter duo believed they were here to steal Arnold away.

Although her taste in men was less than stellar, she wouldn’t go as far as to have that kind of interest in Arnold.

“Mrs. Mendoza, I think you’ve got the wrong idea. Arnold and I have no prior relationship; at most, we were classmates. I came today to clarify some old matters with him. There’s no need for you to be so anxious." Marlinie politely explained.

Tracy was ticked off at being called out for her nerves. She felt a little humiliated. “Anxious? Who said I was anxious?!"

Marlinie smiled lightly. “If you're not anxious, why would you lock us up here? Are you that terrified of me meeting your husband?”

Tracy’s face stiffened. “I…”

Marlinie didn’t want to antagonize her further. She just wanted to see Arnold and confront him about the past.

“Mrs. Mendoza, I have no interest in your husband. You can rest easy. I just want to ask him something. Once I’m done, I’ll leave.”

Tracy eyed her skeptically.
