The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1801

Chapter 1801 

“I came to your house, encountered your daughter, and when I mentioned I was looking for you, she locked me, my friend, and my friend’s child in your attic. At the end, your wife even threatened me with a knife.” 

Arnold looked ashamed, but deep down he was seething with fury. If only he could rush home right now and deal with those two bumbling women. 

They were asking for trouble. 

“Marlinie, I’m sorry that my family has hurt you! I apologize on their behalf, and I’ll cover your medical expenses!” 

Marlinie’s expression was indifferent, and she only gave him a nonchalant hum. “That’s not necessary. I came to ask you something about my daughter.” 

Upon hearing Marlinie mention her daughter, Arnold’s face turned extremely ugly. 

“Um… about that, I owe you an apology! I’m sorry that I didn’t take better care of your daughter, and she passed away at such a young age.” 

Marlinie frowned. “Until now, you’re still not willing to tell me the truth?” 

Arnold looked stunned. “What truth? Marlinie, didn’t I tell you about this over a decade ago? Didn’t I give you your daughter’s urn?” 

Marlinie, who had been leaning against the headboard, sat up straight when she saw that Arnold showed no signs of repentance. She was so angry that she felt like vomiting blood. 

“You’re lying! Don’t you dare curse my daughter! Arnold, I’m giving you another chance. If you still don’t tell the truth, I’m going to invite those guys outside who brought you here to have a private chat with you!” 

Upon hearing this, Arnold looked clearly scared. “Marlinie, what are you doing? We’re old classmates, and I even helped to take care of your daughter. How can you be so ungrateful?” 

Ungrateful? That was the funniest thing she had ever heard. Marlinie took a deep breath, trying to keep her composure and explain everything calmly. “Yes! When I was desperate, you extended a helping hand and promised to take care of my daughter for a while. But did you really? Did you really take good care of her?” 

Arnold looked extremely guilty. “I…” 

Marlinie didn’t expect him to admit it, so she interrupted him. “My daughter must have suffered a lot from your wife and daughter, right? She was so young, and you found her troublesome, so you abandoned her in the countryside and ignored her. The necklace I gave you as a thank-you gift could have at least bought her some decent meals, but you didn’t give her anything. You never took care of her!”
