The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 794

Mrs. Howard was trying to come up with a plan for her daughter when she asked, “Patri, do you have a photo of

that girl, Ellinor? I want to see what she looks like.”

At the mention of Ellinor, Patricia’s eyes gleamed with jealousy. “Mom, I can’t stand her. Why would I have her

picture? But I have to admit that even without makeup, she’s not too shabby looking. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s

had some work done”

Mrs. Howard wasn’t taken aback. “Theo’s got good taste, so of course the girl he’s into would be a looker. Patri,

Theo’s pretty smitten with her right now, so don’t go stirring up trouble; it’ll just make him resent you.”

Patricia retorted, “Mom! Are you saying I should just let this slide? I love Theo, and I want to be Mrs. Blanchet. He’s

the only guy I know who has excellent looks, status, and brains. He’s perfect for me, so there’s no way I’m backing

down!”

Mrs. Howard tried to soothe her, “Patri, cool your jets! When did you get so hot-headed?”

Patricia replied, “It’s all because of Ellinor! She swooped in and stole the guy I’d been working on for years. You’re

telling me to chill out? How could I possibly chill out?”

Mrs. Howard said, “I’m just saying you should lay low for a bit, not give up. Patri, we need to bide our time. This isn’t

the right moment to break Theo and Ellinor up

Trust me, I’ve been around the block a few times. A guy’s infatuation with a new girl never lasts long. Once the

ty wears off, they’ll naturally break up. So, our first order of business should be to deal with the bun in Ellinor’s

oven. Best case scenario, we make it so she can’t ever have kids again and nip it

in the bud.”

Patricia recognized the need to address Ellinor’s pregnancy. “Mom! Remember when I asked my brother to help me

so I could get Quinton to take Ellinor for an abortion?

I even bribed the surgeon to take out her womb while they were at it to make sure she couldn’t cause trouble in the

future.

But just as Ellinor was about to go into surgery. Theo swooped in and whisked her away. We were so close to

success.

After that, my brother never brought up the abortion again!”

Mrs. Howard pondered for a moment, “Patri, don’t worry, I’ll figure something out. Just give me some time. For

now, go freshen up and get ready to dine with the man who saved your grandpa’s life. Be gracious and sweet with

your words.

You know how it is with your grandparents; I’ve never been able to effectively communicate with them. You need to

handle them yourself. Your father doesn’t have any real authority at home; he passed on all decision-making

powers to your brother years ago. Your brother won’t listen to your father, so besides your brother, only your

grandparents’ opinions still carry weight. If we want to secure our place in the Howard family, we need their

approval.”

Patricia nodded, “I understand, mom. I’ve always respected my grandparents.”

Mrs. Howard gently patted her daughter’s shoulder, “Good girl! Now go get ready!”

Patricia seemed somewhat downcast as she turned to leave after listening to her mother.

Mrs. Howard squinted her eyes, wondering just how capable Ellinor was. She definitely needed to meet her at some

point. How could she steal her daughter’s man? She was way out of her league!

Meanwhile, Ellinor had returned to Byran’s room.
