Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 661 - 688: Avoiding Him
Mabel Quinn’s seat was unexpectedly arranged next to Edward Quinn, rather than being with her mother Evelina, which surprised many people. Some who were unaware of Mabel’s background were even quietly inquiring about her identity and why she received such special treatment from Edward Quinn.
Meanwhile, Thomas Quinn looked at Mabel with a thoughtful gaze. Earlier today, he had asked his mother whether she knew what his uncle meant by "yuan-yuan," since he only heard his uncle utter these syllables without being sure what words they referred to.
However, it sounded like a name.
When his mother heard his question, her face changed slightly with obvious surprise. After he pressed her further, she finally said, "It should be ’Clover,’ with the ’grass’ radical over the character for ’first.’ This woman was the only one your uncle ever loved back then. However, she later disappeared, and no one knew her whereabouts. Your uncle was nearly devastated during that time. If not for Granny Taylor’s ultimatum, your uncle might never have recovered. Later, he never married, probably because of Clover."
"Mom, do you remember what Clover looked like? Did she resemble Mabel?" Thomas asked.
"Now that you mention it, there does seem to be a bit of resemblance, but... not particularly like, maybe five or six out of ten. It was so long ago, my memory is a bit hazy, so I can’t be entirely sure."
Yet this answer already gave Thomas some conclusions in his heart. His uncle’s special treatment of Mabel was probably because Mabel bore some resemblance to the woman his uncle once loved.
During the meal, Mabel really had no appetite, so she came out to get some fresh air. But as soon as she reached the corridor, she saw a group of people walking towards her, and among them was Kyle Kinston!
He... why is he here too?!
Mabel was startled, but at this moment, she didn’t have time to think about these things. The words he said to her that morning flashed once more in her mind.
He had clearly said that he wouldn’t show up in front of her again, but how long has it been, and here they meet again.
Out of reflex, Mabel turned around, but the next moment she was surprised again as Daniel Harris was not far behind her and was walking towards her.
Seeing her panic-stricken expression, Daniel asked, "What’s wrong?"
"N-nothing, let me hide here for a bit." She quickly ducked behind Daniel and could only pray that Kyle hadn’t spotted her.
As the group approached, Daniel also saw Kyle. He raised his brow slightly, and their gazes met in mid-air.
Kyle’s eyes were cold, but the moment he passed in front of Daniel and caught a glimpse of the faint figure behind him, his eyes narrowed sharply, and even his steps paused.
"Mr. Kinston, something wrong?"
When he stopped, everyone else stopped too. At this moment, Mabel, hiding behind Daniel, couldn’t help but tense up, even holding her breath.
