Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 713 - 742: Sending Home

Before long, Daniel Harris’s car arrived. Daniel walked into the store, helping Alice Conley to walk outside.

"Thank you for your help." Mabel Quinn said.

"It’s no trouble at all." Daniel replied, placing Alice in the back seat. Mabel also got in the back seat and then gave Alice’s home address.

"You didn’t return to your rented place last night, was there something wrong?" Inside the car, Daniel asked abruptly.

Mabel was taken aback, "You went to my place yesterday too?" she asked in surprise.

"Yes, I just wanted to talk to you about the news. Don’t worry, I’ll help the Quinn Family handle it. But when I got there, I knocked for a long time and nobody answered. There were no lights inside, so I figured you weren’t home."

What he didn’t say was that he had kept vigil at her rented house’s door all night until leaving this morning.

"Last night... I went to help a friend, and ended up staying overnight at my friend’s place." She replied, a bit uneasy.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, he glanced at her but said nothing further.

The car fell silent, except for the occasional hiccuping and murmuring of the drunken Alice.

When they reached Alice’s neighborhood, Mabel struggled a bit to get Alice out of the car.

It’s true that drunk people can be very heavy, especially when Alice, after getting drunk, kept moving around, making it hard for Mabel to support her.

"Let me help." Daniel crouched down, assuming a piggyback position, and Mabel was slightly taken aback.

"This is..."

"I’ll carry her upstairs, you support from the side." Daniel said, "This way we can get her back faster."

"Thank you very much," Mabel said, helping Alice onto his back. Daniel carried Alice while Mabel supported them from the side, and indeed, the pace was much quicker. In no time, they were in front of the Conley Family’s door.

Alice’s parents were shocked to see their daughter drunk.

Mabel apologized, "Sorry, Alice drank a little too much when we were having dinner outside today."

"It’s alright." Mrs. Conley smiled, "Thank you for bringing Alice back. This girl has been acting strangely these past few days. She hasn’t been very responsive when we talk to her. Maybe it’s the pressure from work, a little drink to relieve stress might help."

After leaving the Conley’s, Daniel drove Mabel back.

"Thank you." Mabel said.

"It’s not a big deal." Daniel smiled.

"It’s not just about sending Alice home, but also about the news." Mabel said, "If we were relying solely on the Quinn Family, that news wouldn’t have been suppressed so quickly." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Some reporters nowadays, just to grab attention and create sensational news, often abandon basic decency," Daniel said, "But once such news breaks, it must be very awkward for you in the Quinn Family. Especially now, when within the family, Christopher Quinn’s two sons are fiercely competing for the heir position, and the Quinn Group’s executives are also picking sides. With the way the news portrayed you, you became an unpredictable factor in their eyes. Some of them might even target you."

Daniel himself had experienced such family conflicts in the upper-class, so he knew a bit about the Quinn Family’s affairs and was therefore concerned about Mabel’s situation.
