The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 600
At this moment, Patricia was being taken care of by Balfour’s staff, resting in the quest room, her face as pale as a sheet. On her
usually innocent face, the current expression looked unnaturally forced
Just a moment ago, she had watched Ellinor’s performance on stage through a video call with Balfour’s subordinate, Quinton.
She was surprised, shocked, and jealous!
Ellinor’s performance was beyond her expectations, and it was so good it had the audience clapping and cheering for her!
What on earth?
How could poor born Ellinor perform such a sophisticated art and sing so well? She was even better than Patricia herself, who
had been practicing in secret for months!
Patricia was furious, this was not the outcome she wanted to see!
She had hoped Ellinor would sing out of tune due to her lack of performance skills, annoying the old Mr. Bagley to the point of
disgust and even dismissal!
But Ellinor’s performance was superb, and she must have received additional praise from the old Mr. Bagley, which was simply
unbearable.
She knew she should not have agreed to let Ellinor replace her on stage in the first place, she should have just let Balfour kick
Ellinor out, so none of this would have happened! She was full of regret!
Just then, Haillie knocked on the door and walked in, looking at Patricia’s face, she asked with concern, “Patricia, how is your
foot? What did the doctor say after the check-up?”
Seeing her friend, Patricia immediately put on a smile and replied, “Don’t worry, Haillie, the doctor said I just sprained my foot. It’s
nothing serious, I’ll be okay after some
rest
Relieved, Haillie nodded, “That’s a relief. I was so worried that your foot would be worsened by that cunning woman, Ellinor!”

Hearing Haillie mention Ellinor, Patricia’s smile stiffened a bit, but she still tried to remain calm, though she was already annoyed
with Haillie.
It was all Haillie’s fault!
It was she who suggested letting Ellinor replace her on stage. Otherwise, Ellinor wouldn’t have had the chance to perform!
Sometimes, her friend really gave her a headache!
Haillie, oblivious to Patricia’s annoyance, continued, “Patricia, the old Mr. Bagley wants to see you. He has something to say!”
Patricia, still sulking, was taken aback, “What? Does the old Mr. Bagley want to see me? He has something to say to me?”
Haillie nodded, “Yes, because he really liked that performance just now, so the old Mr. Bagley wants to meet the lead performer!”
Patricia was a bit confused, she blinked, “The old Mr. Bagley wants to see the lead performer, but that person is,”
Patricia was about to say Ellinor’s name, but Haillie interrupted her, “The lead performer is you, Patricial Did you forget that
Ellinor performed just now on your behalf? I’ve already told the old Mr Bagley that the performer was you, and it was a gift you
prepared for him. So, of course, the person he wants to see is you!” Only then did Patricia realize what Haillie meant. She was
so angry about Ellinor’s great performance that she forgot Ellinor had performed in her name.
At this point, Patricia’s gloom had lifted
