The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo)
Chapter 542

The restaurant manager's eyes flickered with caution. “That waiter should be in his dorm right now. He told me he wasn't feeling well, so he took half a day off to rest! What do you need from him?” Ellinor said, “Regarding the child that got bumed in our private room today, I have a few questions for him.”

The manager frowned, “I want to make it clear that befom you guys arrived, I had a serious talk with our staff! He said the incident of the kid getting burned by hot soup had nothing to do with him. I feel that you shouldn't drag our waiters into your affairs, after all, they're just regular folks trying to make a living”

Ellinor smiled and nodded, showing her understanding, “Don’t worry, I just want to ask him a few questions; I won't put him in a tough spot”

The manager was tom between protecting her employee and not offending her customers. After a moment of thought, she flagged down a waiter who was cleaning up and instructed, “Go get Gavin from the dorm, tell him I need him"

Soon enough, Gavin, the waiter in question, was called over from his dorm by his colleague.

Gavin walked in shyly, “Boss, you called for me?”

The manager said, “The guests you served in the private room this afternoon are looking for you and have a few questions. Just tell them what you told me earlier Don't be afraid, just tell them the truth!” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Upon seeing Ellinor and a few others, Gavin's face immediately turned tense, and then he pointed at Ellinor and blurted out.

“Boss, it was her! She grabbed the soup pot from my hand! I was refilling the hotpot on the table when this lady suddenly stood up, snatched the soup pot from my hand, and splashed it directly onto the kid's face!”

Everyone turned to look at Ellinor in shock, finding it hard to believe.

Ellinor could confirm that this waiter was the one who had added soup to their pot.

And his version was exactly the same as Patricia's?

Ellinor's expression slowly grew complex, but not because everyone was blaming her. Instead, she was very clear that she had not done such a thing to hurt a child, but the lies told by Patricia and the waiter, two people who should have nothing in common, were identical.

Therefore, it could be confirmed that there was a connection between this waiter and Patricia, and it seemed they had coordinated their stories.

Ellinor had thought that the child's burn was just an accident caused by a nervous waiter, and Patricia took advantage of the situation to frame her

But now she realized that things were not that simple and that the truth might be more terrifying

If Patricia and this waiter were connected, and they had premeditated on how to accuse her and describe the situation, then it could be inferred that the waiter didn't accidentally hurt the child but did it intentionally under Patricia's instruction.

This was not an accident but a trap carefully set by Patricia, who even didn't hesitate to have a waiter burn her own child.

What kind of mother would do such a thing?!

Ellinor was shocked by her discovery, and her new understanding of the extent of human depravity left her stunned.

“Ellinor, the witness has accused you. Anything else to say?”

Balfour's cold and angry voice echoed. His patience had worn thin and he felt like he wanted to throw her in jail right away and never let her out.

Patricia, with a quivering voice, urged her, “Ellinor, just admit your wrongdoing If you show the night attitude, I can plead for you with my brother.”
