The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 897

Quinton pondered for a moment, "Hang tight for a sec. I’ll go in and let Mr. Howard know."

A smug smile crossed Patricia Howard's face, feeling like she'd won again. As long as Quinton went in and told him about her remorse, her brother would no longer be so cold-hearted toward her!

Just as Patricia had imagined, not long after, Balfour Howard came out to meet her himself!

"Brother! I brought your favorite stir-fried veggies!" Patricia ran towards Balfour like she used to, acting like a child and being playful in his arms.

However, Balfour coldly pushed her away, his gaze sweeping the surroundings deeply, "Where's Ellinor Mendoza? Wasn't she with you?"

Patricia was taken aback. Why was his focus on Ellinor too?

"Uh...Ellinor's waiting for me in the car downstairs! Brother, I've made peace with Ellinor. She agreed to ride in my car, which means she's willing to forgive me! Brother, I know I was wrong. Can you stop being mad at me?"

As she spoke, Patricia tried to snuggle into Balfour's arms again.

With one hand on Patricia's shoulder, not allowing her to get any closer, Balfour asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't she come up?"

Patricia's eyebrows furrowed slightly, feeling that her brother's concern for Ellinor was a bit too much, but she didn't dare to show her discontent...

"Brother, I invited Ellinor to come up, but she didn't want to. She said she'd wait for me in the car, so I didn't force her."

Balfour's gaze darkened, "You invited her, and she didn't want to come up?"
