Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 658 - 685: Someone is Protecting Her

It would be best if Uncle could drive Mabel Quinn out of the mourning hall because of this.

However, in reality, as soon as she said this, Edward Quinn gave a cold shout, "Christopher, take your daughter out for me!" The words were severe, almost directly telling Alessia Quinn to get lost.

Seeing her uncle so enraged, Alessia was stunned with fear, and her mother standing beside her, Camille Grant, was also dumbfounded and looked to her husband for help.

Christopher Quinn awkwardly said, "Brother, just now... it was Alessia who misspoke, but let’s just let it go. If she leaves the mourning hall now, who knows what kind of rumors might spread tomorrow."

But Edward’s expression remained icy, "Take her out, don’t make me say it a third time!"

Christopher had no choice; in the Quinn Family, no one ever dared to contradict the eldest brother’s words, and Alessia could only leave the mourning hall with a sorrowful face.

Even though she bore the title of eldest daughter of the Quinn Family, her mother was never officially the second wife of the family, and to put it bluntly, she was just an illegitimate daughter.

And now, being driven out of the mourning hall like this, surely there would be gossip reporters tomorrow once again dragging out her status as an illegitimate child, claiming that she had no right to stand in the mourning hall, while Mabel Quinn, someone who wasn’t even part of the main family, had the right to be there. One couldn’t deny the irony of it!

Once out of the mourning hall, she angrily said to her father, "Dad, why would Uncle treat me like this? Mabel Quinn and Daniel Harris were exchanging glances in front of Granny Taylor’s mourning hall, I just mentioned it, and Uncle took it out on me like this, what did I do wrong!"

Christopher responded with irritation, "You didn’t do anything wrong? On a day like today, is it appropriate to say such things? Was what you said something a lady of the Quinn Family should say? Moreover, you even dragged the entire Harris Family into it, should your uncle take it out on the Harris Family instead? You’d better reflect properly outside!"

Alessia could only sulk outside the mourning hall, not daring to go back in, lest her uncle lose his temper with her again.

The Quinn Family in J City was considered quite a large clan. Just the people from the branch families, those with business dealings, and those who had ties with the Quinn Family were continuously coming after hearing the news, and Edward occasionally mentioned Mabel, introducing some of the visitors to her.

This action surprised many members of the Quinn Family, and quite a few were speculating on Edward Quinn’s intentions.

And when Mabel’s adoptive mother, Evelina, arrived at the Quinn Family’s place, Mabel’s body involuntarily stiffened.

Although it was reasonable for Evelina to come and pay her respects to the matriarch, Mabel truly did not want to see this adoptive mother again. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

When she was kidnapped into the vehicle by those three men, listening to the recording of her adoptive mother speaking, she felt both sorrow and hatred.

With every compromise she made, it only emboldened the other party further.

After the kidnapping incident, she truthfully recounted everything to the police in her statement. As for the subsequent actions by the police, she did not inquire further; it was Caleb who called her, informing her that those debt-collecting agencies related to her mother would no longer implicate her in their debt issues.
