The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 551

Scoring this job wasn't a piece of cake. With Ms. Howard's offer of money, he finally gave in to temptation.

But when it came time to get his hands dirty, he couldn't go through with it. The child was so innocent and adorable that he was having an internal battle. His hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't even hold the soup pot steady.

Lucky for them, Ms. Mendoza jumped in just in time. Otherwise, the kid would've been scalded even worse. He was so scared that he bolted.

But compared to what was happening now, the evidence of him swiping a customer's phone didn't even matter anymore.

Balfour noticed the glances that Gavin and his sister Patricia were exchanging. He frowned, coldly stared at Gavin, and said, "Stop looking at her. Spill it! What did she say to you outside the restroom?"

Gavin was freaked out by the intense vibe Balfour was giving off. With his conscience nagging at him, he couldn't hesitate or hide the truth anymore, so he spilled the beans.

"She... she asked me to scald her kid a little when I get the chance, then pin the blame on Ms. Mendoza. She said it was Ms. Mendoza who grabbed the soup pot and afterward she would give me a chunk of change. At the restroom door, the first thing she gave me was a down payment. That's how it all went down."

Balfour, known for his cool demeanor, was visibly shaken as Gavin revealed the truth, and he stepped back in disbelief!

His sister! His sweet, innocent, kind-hearted sister was capable of such a vile, cold-blooded scheme, willing to let her own child get scalded just to frame her rival?
