The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 604

Chapter 604

Ellinor flashed Patricia a smile and said, "Ms. Howard, I've already stripped off the costume and left it backstage at the makeup station. Make sure someone scoops it up.

I reckon this finely made costume is bespoke, right? I'd suggest you send someone to check it out now. If it's lost or damaged later, don't point fingers at me!"

Her words were light as a feather, but suddenly, the air got thick.

Patricia and Haillie's faces stiffened. They didn't know how to respond, just shot Ellinor a dirty look, then glanced nervously at old man Bagley.

Old man Bagley, previously friendly, now looked grim. He glanced at the innocent Patricia in her wheelchair, then at Ellinor, who had removed her stage makeup, his brow furrowed in deep thought.

Ellinor just grinned at old man Bagley. Seeing no response from Patricia, she continued: "Ms. Howard, you're not saying anything? Silence is golden, huh? If there's no problem, I'll be on my way. Later!"

After saying her piece, she respectfully bowed to old man Bagley and his wife. "Mr. and Mrs. Bagley, it was an honor to attend your party. I'll take my leave now. Goodbye.’

With that, she turned to leave.

Suddenly, Mrs. Bagley came to, reaching out to stop Ellinor. "It's Marlinie. She's Marlinie. Don't go, Marlinie."

Ellinor paused slightly at the name Marlinie but didn't stop walking or turn to look at Mrs. Bagley.
