Hello,
To remove the ellipsis, kindly do the following:
1. Create a child theme of the Splash theme.
2. Inside the child theme's directory, create a functions.php file and paste the following  
<?php

function mts_excerpt( $limit = 40 ) {
  return esc_html( mts_truncate( get_the_excerpt(), $limit, 'words', '' ) );
}
Thank you

Open the file /functions/theme-actions.php and locate this code: 
            <div class="front-view-content">
                <?php echo mts_excerpt(48); ?>

Reduce the number of words by changing the number 48 in that code.
To have a read more link below it, then add this code below that code shown above: 
<a href="<?php get_the_permalink(); ?>" class="readMore">Read more</a>
Looking forward to help you. Thank you.
