The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1987

Chapter 1987 

Ivy sighed, “So, do you believe I’m innocent now?” 

Balfour glanced back at the computer screen, where the surveillance footage played. He tugged at his tie as an inexplicable irritation gnawed at him. “Was there something else you wanted to discuss through the call?” he asked: 

Despite presenting clear evidence to Balfour, his tone remained indifferent. 

It was utterly baffling! 

Ivy let out a resigned sigh, “There’s another thing I need your help with. It’s clear someone took these photos with malicious intent. Could you look into who’s behind the camera?” 

“Hmm.” Balfour grunted coldly. He had already set Quinton on the case. 

The scheme wasn’t exactly cloaked in secrecy; a brief probe by Quinton’s contacts had traced the breadcrumbs back to Clara. 

“Ma’am, it’s Clara.” 

Hearing the investigation results from Quinton, Ivy’s expression twisted into a snarl. 

She had thought that after handing over three million dollars, she could sever ties with the Dunhill family for good. Yet Clara was like a specter, haunting her still and intent on bringing her down. 

If they chose to be ruthless, Ivy saw no reason to hold onto the last shreds of familial ties. 

“Ma’am, should I step in and give Clara a warning?” Quinton offered. 

Ivy pondered for a moment before shaking her head, “No need. I’ll handle this myself. But Quinton, I do need another favor from you, if you’re willing.” 

Quinton nodded, “Balfour told me that you could count on me whenever you need.” 

– 

Ivy instructed, “I need you to dig into what Clara’s been up to lately any gigs she’s picked up and any crew she joined.” 

Ivy knew Clara’s priorities – her career was paramount for now. 

If she was to teach her a lesson, she had to hit her where it hurt most.
