The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 313

Patricia looked anxious, "Balfour, what should Haillie do now?"?"

Balfour snapped back to reality, speaking seriously, "She's a grown woman, capable of thinking for herself. Whatever decisions she makes, she should deal with the consequences."

"But she's my best friend! We can't just ignore her..."

"Enough, let's not talk about this now. You go home with Byran."

In the restroom at the police station.

Ellinor came out after washing her hands, and attorney Case Quinne was waiting for her in the corridor. He handed her a paper towel.

He also passed her his phone, saying, "Mr. Larios called earlier. He wants you to pick up."

Ellinor first took the paper towel and dried her hands, then picked up the call.

Chase Larios's voice came through the phone, "Are you okay? You're not hurt, are you?"

"I'm fine! You did great. The witness you found was timely. There will be a reward for you when I get back!"

Chase felt a bit awkward, "Actually, I didn't find the witness."

"Not you? So they came on their own?"

"Not exactly. I got there late. By the time I arrived, the person had already been rescued."

"Rescued by who?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be one of Mr. Blanchet's men. A guy named Collin who has been investigating Zachary's family situation these days, got ahead of us."

Case Quinne bowed to Ellinor in farewell, then got in his car and left.

Upon raising her head, Ellinor saw Theo waiting at the entrance of the police station...

Seeing him at this moment, her feelings were somewhat complicated, and she stood still.

The man stood there in a suit, lazily leaning against a fancy white sports car, a cigarette between his long fingers, apparently waiting for someone.

Seeing Ellinor standing still, Theo raised his hand, gesturing, "Come here."

Ellinor hesitated for a moment before walking over, "Mr. Blanchet."

Theo exhaled a puff of smoke, squinting at her, then glanced in the direction Case Quinne had left, "Ms. Mendoza, you sure do have a wide circle of acquaintances."
