The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 429

Chapter 429 

Chase and Ida glanced at each other, their hearts heavy with bitterness.

Growing up, the big boss never received a shred of warmth in the Mendoza family. She suffered all sorts of hardships after being sent to the countryside. It was a heart-wrenching journey to get to where she is today, a journey they both witnessed and experienced together.

Chase looked at Ellinor’s downcast appearance and wanted to lift her spirits, so he changed the topic. “Now that the engagement gifts have been returned, why don’t we go out and have some fun, maybe drown our sorrows a bit?”

Drink in broad daylight? Ellinor was not in the mood for fun. She waved him off, instructing, “Chase, do some digging on whether there have been any luxurious mansions in H city that were demolished and rebuilt in the past twenty years. If so, look into the original owners. Also, look into a former student of H City University named Marlene Get me her records”

Chase, sensing something asked seriously, “Marlene, is that your mother’s name?”

Ellinor nodded Although Arnold believed her mother had been murdered by their enemies, she couldn’t shake the feeling that her mother was still alive

Ida turned her head adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, and looked at the pale Ellinor with concern, “Let’s eat something first. You’ve lost weight!”

Chase also looked at the boss, nodding in agreement about her weight loss, then joked, “Even if Mr. Blanchet is away on business, you’re not going to starve yourself because you miss him, right? Come on! Anything you want to eat today, it’s on me!*

Ida shot him a look of contempt. “You’re treating? Without Ellinor, would you be where you are today? Would you even have money to treat us?”
