The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 690

Ellinor looked up calmly, “I’m innocent, why should I admit to something I didn’t do?”

Balfour narrowed his eyes ominously. “If you did no wrong, why is the murder weapon in your hands?”

Ellinor lifted the chisel in her hand. “You mean this? This was shoved into my hands by Ms Howard, she said it was for self protection!”

Balfour thought she was spouting nonsense. “Ellinor, don’t you find what you’re saying ridiculous?”

Ellinor’s gaze was calm “I’m stating facts, if you find the truth ridiculous, that’s your problem”

Balfour’s expression darkened, believing her attitude was not only an attempt to evade responsibility but also a challenge to the authority of the Howard family

“Ellinor, I’m giving you one more chance to admit your mistake. I can still let you take responsibility for your crime, otherwise, your whole family will be punished”

Ellinor looked at him serenely, feeling that the situation was a bit ironic and even a little amusing
