Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 675 - 702: Dowry
Edward Quinn’s voice paused, and he didn’t continue, but Mabel Quinn could understand what was left unsaid.
Unfortunately... Granny Taylor couldn’t see her wedding!
Tears welled up uncontrollably in Mabel’s eyes as she walked to the box, opened it, and saw its contents: exquisite jewelry, finely crafted silk bed linens, and a pair of delicate red embroidered shoes. There was also a Buddhist scripture, obviously well-thumbed and yellowed with age — clearly a relic of some years.
"This is the Buddhist Scripture your Granny Taylor often read," Edward’s voice came, "All these things were left for you by Granny Taylor, including 5% of the Quinn Group shares in her name, to be inherited by you," Edward said.
Mabel was taken aback; if the box of wedding gifts Granny had left her was already beyond her expectations, then the shares were simply unimaginable.
5% of Quinn Group’s shares — the price is indescribable! Although it sounds like just 5%, in terms of money, it could last several lifetimes without worrying about food and clothing.
"Granny Taylor...must have made a mistake, surely this shareholding shouldn’t be given to me," Mabel muttered.
"Granny Taylor probably just wanted you to live worry-free for the rest of your life, so she gave the shares she held to you. As long as the Quinn Family stands, you have its support," Edward said. Although his mother’s decision to give the shares to Mabel surprised him, he had no objection.
"In a couple of days, it’s the opening day of the Quinn Family Film Corporation. At that time, your studio will also participate. I’ve arranged for an outfit to be prepared for you; the butler will give it to you when you leave," Edward continued.
Mabel looked puzzled, unable to understand the connection between the Quinn Film Corporation’s founding and her studio.
"The film company plans to invest additionally in one of your studio’s TV dramas, and you can take this opportunity to learn more about the film company’s situation. In the future, if you’re willing, you could also join Quinn Group," Edward hinted.
Mabel quickly said, "I really like my current job, and also, I can’t accept the 5% shares. Granny Taylor has already given me enough, why don’t I sign an agreement to transfer the 5% shares back to you, Uncle?"
"Alright, let’s talk about the future when it comes. As for the shares, they are Granny Taylor’s gift to you, cherish them wholeheartedly and don’t let Granny Taylor down," Edward said. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Mabel thought about it and could only find a way to transfer the 5% shares to her uncle in the future.
When she left the Quinn family’s old residence, the butler handed Mabel a box containing a gown and informed her that due to the value of the items in the box, Edward was concerned that it wouldn’t be safe at her current residence. Therefore, he planned to store it in a bank’s safety deposit box for her, and she could retrieve it whenever she wanted.
"The master also mentioned, miss should remember to wear that White Jade Ring when attending the film company’s opening ceremony," the butler reminded.
Mabel nodded, "Alright."
That evening, in her rented apartment, Mabel gently caressed the gown, which appeared elegant yet exquisite, and then softly slid the White Jade Ring her uncle had given her back onto her finger. The ring and the gown complemented each other perfectly, as if they were made as a set.
