The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 99

Ellinor laughed. “Twenty thousand dollars? Yvette, do you take me for a fool? You’m not seriously trying to scam me, are you?

Yvette sneered “Ellinor, isn’t your family loaded? Your folks could buy a whole building for our school Why can’t you afford to pay for a violin?”

Ellinor narrowed her eyes, “And if I don’t?

“What if you don’t? Yvette’s eyes widened in shock. If you don’t pay me for my violin today, I’m calling the cops! Your prints are all over it. Everyone saw you playing it. You can’t deny it!

Ellinor shrugged unbothered

Yvette was clearly upset about not being the center of attention earlier and was now trying to stir up trouble. How boring!

“Fine, call the cops! They can verify whether this violin of yours is an antique and whether it’s worth a hundred grand. And they can decide if you’re trying to blackmail me

Yvette was taken aback, a hint of panic in her eyes. She hadn’t expected this not to phase Ellinor and blurted out, “Ellinor, you’re so cunning!”

Ellinor smirked, “Am I cunning? Or are you just being unreasonable and trying to set me up?”

“I don’t care! You’ll pay for my violin! You have to pay me today! If you don’t, you’re not guing anywhere!” Yvette, unable to out–argue her, began to block Ellinor’s way hysterically She thought. If I couldn’t make Ellinor lose face earlier, now I’ll make her pay. She won’t be getting off easy!

In truth, she had scratched her own violin just to frame Ellinor!

And while her violin wasn’t an antique, it was indeed expensive!

She couldn’t let her plan to frame Ellinor fail, and her precious violin got ruined for nothing!

So, until Ellinor paid, she wouldn’t let this drop!

Even the patient Ellinor was nearing her breaking point. She clenched her fists, ready to take action.

“Hi girl, why the temper?”

Suddenly, a deep, refined voice with a hint of wildness interrupted their quarrel.

Yvette thought a passerby was trying to meddle and was ready to snap at them, but she turned around only to be stunned by the sight of the man before her!

A handsome man with a commanding presence, tall and lean, striking features and a designer suit, was walking toward them.

Seeing this hunk, Yvette blushed, her previous tantrums quickly forgotten. She lowered her eyes demurely, playing the victim, “I’m sorry for disturbing you, Sir. She broke my expensive violin and wants to leave without paying, that’s why I’m so upset.”

“Is that so? Destroying someone’s property and not wanting to pay? That’s not nice”

Ellinor watched Jonah approach, recognizing him as Theo’s friend, but couldn’t fathom his intentions.

Why was he getting involved?

Jonah walked up to Yvette, gently asking. “Where is the damage? Let me take a look.”

“Sir, look these scratches, they’re all her doing!” Yvette blushed as she handed her violin to the handsome man while pointing the finger at Ellinor.

She thought this handsome man must be interested in her to come over and help. This proved she’s more attractive, and more capable of capturing men’s attention than Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Ellinor

Jonah studied the violin, shaking his head regretfully. “The scratches on this violin are indeed severe. A real shame for such a fine instrument.”

Seeing the distinguished and handsome man siding with her. Yvette felt a surge of confidence.

She thought for a moment, then began to weep pitifully. “Sir, you must help me! My violin is an antique, but she intentionally damaged it and refused to compensate me.”
