The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 689

After Patricia finished speaking, she removed her hand from the back of Baber's head, revealing the blood on her palm. "I saw it! You hit Baber with that tool in your hand. Baber is just a child; how could you?"

Following Patricia's accusation, everyone's gaze shifted to the chisel in Ellinor's hand, further making people believe that she was the culprit.

Faced with everyone's accusatory stares, Ellinor looked at the chisel in her own hand and understood.

This was a trap. A meticulously designed trap!

It started the moment Patricia invited her to chat in the living room.

As soon as she fell into the trap, Patricia sent a maid, intentionally using a bloody coffee cup to lure her into this carefully crafted "crime scene".

Patricia’s acting skills were top-notch!

Patricia’s worried demeanor about the child was so convincing.

She thought that Patricia cared about the child's safety in addition to using him.

However, Patricia actually killed an innocent child just to frame her. How ruthless could she be?!

At this moment, Ellinor admitted she was wrong; she had mistaken Patricia for a human being.

Through her tears, Patricia said, "Ellinor, I know you and Theo have made up. You're worried Baber would ruin your relationship with Theo, but you can't just kill a child!

Baber is a child I had Theo adopt from overseas. I explained all this to you in the living room. I promised you that Baber and I would never bother you again. Why can't you leave Baber alone?

I never thought Ellinor would attack Baber. I didn't have enough time to stop her, and she killed my Baber.

It was her! Ellinor killed Baber! My Baber died so tragically!"

As Patricia detailed her version of events, she cried incessantly, as if her tears could lend credibility to her words.

Was it true that the one who cried the most was the righteous one?

Ironically, that seemed to be the case. Everyone believed Patricia. Her grief over the loss of her child stirred their sympathy.

Balfour believed her. He tried to suppress his anger and sorrow and asked calmly, "Ellinor, do you admit to your crime?"
