Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 965 - 1004: Speculation

"Dorian, I owe you so much," Alice Conley murmured. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"But you’ve given me even more," Dorian Howards replied. "We’re married now, so there’s no owing between us. Alice, if one day it’s my family in danger, I believe you would also do everything you could to save them, right?"

Alice was taken aback. Yes, she would certainly try to save them, even if she detested that person deep down. But... as long as it’s his family, as long as it’s for him, she would definitely give it her all to save them.

"Yes." She responded in such a way, wrapping her arms tightly around him.

Mabel Quinn figured that the current situation between her and Kyle Kinston was probably a cold war. Of course, this cold war wasn’t in the strictest sense, since as long as she didn’t bring up pleading for leniency, whenever she called him to talk about other things, he would still respond to her. She had Caleb deliver some of her homemade food to him, and he ate it all.

But the problem was, he just wouldn’t return to the Quinn Residence and was staying at the Tavern instead. He insisted that she give him a clear answer: that she would no longer plead for Alice’s father before he would come back to live together.

But how could she give such an answer! Just thinking of Alice, she couldn’t help but want to speak on Alice’s father’s behalf, hoping that the Conley Family wouldn’t truly fall apart. On one side were the living, and on the other, the deceased.

"Mabel, this afternoon, go to Century City. There’s a film festival being organized, and you should go and register," Thomas Quinn called Mabel into his office and said. "You should know Empress the best. This film festival could be a great promotional opportunity for our film, increasing the chance of being picked up by streaming platforms."

"Alright, I’ll go this afternoon," Mabel replied, knowing this was indeed an opportunity.

"By the way, has Uncle ever contacted you?" Thomas suddenly asked.

Mabel shook her head, "No, what’s up?"

"Nothing much, just that Uncle seems to be busy with something these days, and strangely, he often stays in Granny Taylor’s room, as if he’s preoccupied with something. I thought you and Uncle were close, so maybe he’d mention something to you." Thomas said as he observed Mabel’s reaction.

"Uncle hasn’t contacted me, so I’m not aware of anything," Mabel replied with clear eyes.

Thomas smiled and didn’t continue on this topic. He only heard it from their mother, suggesting that Uncle’s odd behavior might be related to Clover because their mother faintly overheard Uncle mentioning Clover’s name in Granny’s room, talking about some finally found clues, and if something could be found or not.

But their mother didn’t dare listen too much, fearing Uncle would catch her.

Thus, she speculated whether Uncle had found some clues to locate Clover. And if Clover were indeed found, the Quinn Family might be in for another storm.

In the afternoon, Mabel arrived at Century City, filled out the form to participate in the film festival, and when it was time to pay the booth deposit, she realized she’d left her wallet behind.

Mabel slapped her forehead. For days, she’d been so distracted by Alice’s father’s situation that today she’d even forgotten her wallet. "Can I use my phone to scan and transfer the money?" she asked.
