The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 822

Dean jumped in, siding with his grandson, "Balfour, you're spot on! Xenia, you scared off my savior here; aren't you going to apologize to her?"

Xenia was a proud woman. There was no way she'd apologize to a young girl like Ellinor.

But Dean had spoken. She had to listen, right?

With all her extensive knowledge and experience, she knew she needed to suck it up sometimes to get things done. She'd wait for the right moment to deal with Ellinor.

So, Xenia forced a smile and said politely, "Ms. Mendoza, I apologize. I didn't realize your importance earlier and was disrespectful."

Ellinor smiled back, "It's okay. I know it wasn't intentional. No one told you I was the guest today."

Xenia's smile froze. What was this girl implying?

Was she hinting that Xenia wasn't important enough to be informed about the guest?

Damn! This kid had some tricks up her sleeve. Xenia couldn't underestimate her.

Balfour didn't think there was any double meaning in Ellinor's words. If there was, then someone was overthinking.

After Xenia apologized, Balfour was relieved to see Ellinor's expression lighten up.

He walked to a chair, pulled it out like a gentleman, "Ellinor, come sit here."

To spite Xenia and her daughter, Ellinor didn't refuse Balfour's kind gesture and naturally walked over to sit down.

The seat was next to Alyssa, which was usually occupied by Patricia.
