The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 454

Hearing this, Balfour and Quinton both turned their gazes to Ellinor, giving her another once over

After a brief silence, Balfour skeptically asked her, “You can speak Arabic?”

“Yes, a bit‘ Ellinor replied with a smile

Quinton snorted, his opinion of Ellinor dropping even further than it had been during her interview. He

thought she was too cocky. “Knowing a foreign language isn’t as simple as picking up a few phrases!

Ms. Mendoza, Mr. Howard and I are discussing important matters. Please don’t interrupt

Ellinor’s resume hadn’t indicated she knew any foreign languages. Quinton didn’t buy that she spoke

Arabic, one of the hardest languages in the world if she did, why wouldn’t she have it on her resume?

“I may not be fluent, but I can manage

Quinton chuckled dismissively, ignoring her, and turned to their boss, ‘Mr. Howard, what do you think

we should do now?”

Balfour had already lost interest in Ellinor. He was considering other ways to find a professional Arabic

translator

Like Quinton, he thought Ellinor was just trying to stir up some drama.

Seeing that they didn’t believe her, Ellinor stepped forward and said again, “Mr. Howard, your problem

is that if you can’t find a suitable translator, you might lose this big deal. Instead of waiting for failure,

why not let me try?”

Balfour looked at her coldly, “Ms Mendoza, this isn’t child’s play!”

Ellinor smiled. “Mr. Howard do I look like I’m joking? Let’s make a bet!

If I help you secure this deal, you give me the position of CEO’s secretary!

If I fail, I promise to leave and never bother you or Patricia and Theo again. What do you say?”

Honestly, Ellinor didn’t like Balfour’s disposition Even though he might be her relative, she didn’t

appreciate his condescending attitude

But after seeing her mother’s picture on Balfour’s desk, Ellinor was more determined to stay with the

Howard Group than ever.

Because only by staying at the Howard Group could she possibly uncover the truth.

After hearing Ellinor’s words, Balfour looked at her, silent for several seconds, then slowly said, “Alright

Quinton, take her and give it a shot.”

Quinton was stunned, “Ah? Mr. Howard, this…”

Ellinor didn’t seem reliable Was Mr. Howard risking a big deal?

But Balfour wasn’t joking or just speaking off the cuff.

At this point, they couldn’t find a suitable translator in short order. What was the worst that could

happen? They’d lose a deal!

Ellinor’s proposition appealed to him. If things didn’t pan out, she promised to stop bothering Patri and

Theo, which could help alleviate a significant emotional issue for Patri

So, why not let her try?

“Quinton, if Ms. Mendoza doesn’t satisfy the client in the end, don’t bother bringing her back to see me.

The Howard Group won’t welcome an arrogant person back in!”
