The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 609

Byran looked dumbfounded, "What the heck? Grandpa actually accepted Ellinor as his granddaughter? So, does that mean she's gonna be my relative now?"

At this moment, the usually gentle Patricia was staring at Ellinor on the stage. Her eyes were filled with rage; she was no longer able to maintain her practiced innocent facade.

Ellinor! Ellinor! Ellinor!

That annoying Ellinor had ruined her plans again and snatched away the treatment that should have been hers!

If it weren't for Ellinor, it would have been her, who was now being highly praised on stage by old Mr. Bagley.

Ellinor, you sneaky woman!

To avoid making a scene, Patricia forcibly suppressed her anger and said, "I'm beat! Haillie, wheel me back to my room to rest."

Haillie was also displeased to see Ellinor suddenly become the granddaughter of the Bagley family, but she had no choice but to push Patricia away from the crowd and back to the room to plan their next moves.

After the announcement, Ellinor followed old Mr. Bagley off the stage.

Old Mr. Bagley then introduced her to some close relatives in the family.

Ellinor barely managed to slip away from the crowd, leaving old Mr. Bagley to deal with the blessings of friends and relatives.

Byran came over again with a puzzled look on his face, "Ellinor, what did you do? How did you manage to get my grandpa to suddenly accept you as his granddaughter?"

She politely declined, but when asked why by old Mr. Bagley, she gave a reasonable explanation. However, old Mr. Bagley pointed at the mentally unstable old Mrs. Bagley to explain her illness, hoping she would reconsider.

Ellinor hesitated.

She wasn't totally unwilling to acknowledge her grandparents, but she was afraid that doing so might alert those who had hurt her mother, and they would destroy the evidence hidden in the dark, making things harder to investigate.

However, if she accepted them as relatives in name, it probably wouldn't expose her identity.

Faced with old Mr. Bagley's warm invitation and old Mrs. Bagley’s worrying health condition, Ellinor gave it some thought and finally agreed.

Old Mr. Bagley hoped she could spare one day a week to accompany the Alzheimer's-stricken old Mrs. Bagley. It wasn't a hard task, so she agreed.
