The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 959

Dean hobbled over with his cane, "Ellinor, don't worry, I'll sort this out. They'll pay for what they've done to you."

Ellinor gave a small smile, "Thanks, Grandpa Dean, for believing in me."

Tracy and Sheila, on the other hand, were scared stiff when they heard Dean was going to handle the situation and thought they were going to be punished. They wanted to bolt.

Tracy forced a smile, saying, "Uh... Sorry, something's come up at home, so we’ve gotta bounce."

Sheila nervously clung to her mother's arm, "We're out."

Tracy and Sheila booked it out of there, and the Howard family's servants didn't stop them since they hadn't been told to.

Dean and his wife never really gave two hoots about Tracy and her daughter. They were more concerned about Xenia and Patricia, who had embarrassed them.

They sat down with stern faces. Dean frowned at Xenia and Patricia, grunting, "What've you got to say for yourselves?"

Patricia was obviously scared witless and couldn't find her voice.

But Xenia wasn't ready to throw in the towel just yet. She gritted her teeth in anger. If Ellinor was going to oust her and her daughter from the Howard family, then she wouldn't let Ellinor off scot-free.

Suddenly, all eyes were on Ellinor again.

Ellinor raised an eyebrow, "Mrs. Howard, the internet has been buzzing with this scandal. Do you really think anyone would believe me if I tried to clear my name now?"

Xenia snorted, "If you could provide solid evidence that you're innocent, people would believe you! But if it's just talk with no proof, why would anyone believe you, Ms. Mendoza? Or is it that you don't have any evidence?"

Ellinor replied, "I indeed don't have evidence."

Xenia scoffed, "Well, if you have no proof, then you can't blame people for believing that poor mother and daughter’s story!"
