The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) Chapter 74

“Any news from the cops?” Theo asked, cool as a cucumber, his eyes glued to his financial magazine.

Collin responded, “They’re on it, questioning suspects and stuff, but haven’t got any solid leads yet”

This sort of thing happens all around the world every day. Not exactly headline news or anything out of

the ordinary.

Taking a sip of his coffee. Theo instructed, “Let’s downplay the situation until the police figure it out.

We’ll respond officially when the time comes

“Gotcha!” Collin nodded, but he didn’t look as cool as usual. He even seemed a bit hesitant “Mr.

Blanchet, there’s a rumor that the woman involved is… Ellinor

Theo looked up from his magazine, his eyes suddenly sharp.

Collin seemed regretful, “I didn’t want to believe it when I first heard, but our hotel check–in records

show Ms. Mendoza did check into the Blanchet Hotel room 3201 this afternoon. And we can’t find her

now”

Theo paused for a bit, squinted his eyes and said coldly. “Don’t jump to conclusions without solid proof!

Find her first!”

“Right! Collin, you must be mistaken. Ellinor would never do something like that! Veronica chimed in,

trying to draw attention to herself.

Just a minute ago, she had received a message from Morgan, “Mrs. Blanchet, I’ve sorted everything

out. Don’t forget what you promised me!”

“Don’t worry. I won’t forget you if we succeed, Veronica replied, and chuckled to herself.

Now, she followed her plan and opened up her news app, clicked on a headline in the society news

section that read, “A woman and a man suspected of solicitation caught red–handed in the Blanchet

Hotel suite!” and acted surprised, “Look at this! The woman they caught is wearing the same clothes as

my sister–in–law was today, and the guy with her has blonde hair. He looks just like the old friend she

ran into at the mall!”

She handed her phone to Theo..

Theo looked at the screen of Veronica’s phone, the faces of the two suspects in the news video were

blurred, but the woman’s clothes were indeed identical to what Ellinor wore today

Veronica covered her mouth in ‘disbelief, “No way! Brother, this woman… is it really Ellinor? That’s why

she didn’t want me to join her when she said she was going to catch up with her old friend this

afternoon! They were up to no good, that’s so out of line…”

Theo’s face darkened, he didn’t show any clear emotion.

Just then, Marissa, who had been resting in her room, came out, “Theo, Veronica, where is everyone?

Where’s Ellinor? Call her down for dinner!”

Theo was about to caution Veronica to keep her mouth shut, but Veronica blurted out, “Granny, we

have a situation! My sister–in–law was taken by the police!”

“What! Taken by the police?” Marissa almost lost her balance, barely held by a maid, “What’s going on?

What happened to Ellinor?”

Veronica showed Marissa the news video on her phone, “Look, Granny! My sister–in–law was taken by

the police this afternoon!”

Marissa recognized the woman’s clothes in the video, it was indeed what Ellinor wore when she left in

the morning.

Marissa was shocked, “No, that’s impossible! Ellinor would never do such a thing!”

Veronica said angrily, “Granny, my brother and I don’t want to believe it either, but it’s the truth!”

Suddenly, the phone in the house rang!

Seeing that everyone was too preoccupied to answer the phone, Devin went over to pick it up.

Devin was stunned for a second, then hit the speakerphone button….
