Chapter 1396 - 1436: There Will Always Be a Need

The Houghton Family saying these words at this moment clearly indicates an intention to tear the mask off.

And Christopher Quinn, apart from being infuriated, couldn’t utter a word of rebuttal. After all, his daughter is indeed an illegitimate child. Generally speaking, a daughter with such birth wouldn’t be accepted by the Houghton Family. The engagement initially happened because both families understood that his daughter had a significant chance of inheriting the Quinn Family, which prompted the Houghton Family to take this step. He was not opposed to relying on the Houghton Family so that eventually, his daughter would inherit the Quinn Family.

Between his eldest son, Thomas Quinn, born from his ex-wife, and Alessia Quinn, he shared a better relationship with his daughter, while with his eldest son, he had nothing to discuss, their relationship was quite distant.

Therefore, in his heart, he more hoped his daughter would inherit the Quinn Family.

But now being slapped by the Houghton Family in such a manner, Christopher Quinn naturally couldn’t swallow his anger and immediately called his elder brother.

As a result, his elder brother merely said, "I understand, bring your wife and Alessia over to the Quinn residence, I have something to say."

This led to Christopher making a call to his daughter. In his heart, his elder brother would surely seek justice for his daughter.

However, when Christopher’s family of three arrived at the Quinn residence, they saw Edward Quinn in the Quinn family’s hall. At this moment, Edward Quinn had a cold expression, especially when his gaze swept over Alessia, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

Although he never liked this niece, perceiving her intentions as impure, she was ultimately a member of the Quinn Family, his brother’s flesh and blood. Therefore, he had always turned a blind eye to some of this niece’s actions. But who would have thought that this niece would dare to go to the extent of harming his own daughter?

Alessia initially thought her uncle would advocate for her justice, but now, facing Edward Quinn’s icy gaze, a sense of unease surged from the depths of her heart.

"Go and ask the young lady and her husband to come over." Edward Quinn instructed the servant beside him, referring naturally to Mabel Quinn and Kyle Kinston.

Christopher was stunned, "Brother, this... Kyle Kinston is in the residence too?"

It’s just past 10 a.m. now. Did this Elder Kinston come to the Quinn residence early in the morning, or was he residing here all along? Christopher couldn’t help but speculate constantly. But he soon added, "This is about Alessia being called off the engagement by the Houghton Family, brother, why are you calling them over?"

"Once they arrive, you will naturally understand," Edward said, sighing internally. His younger brother, the only son who seemed to live up to expectations, was not taken seriously, yet the ones he’s fond of are the two children born to Camille Grant, and then these two children...

Nevertheless, no matter what, today, he would seek justice for his own daughter! That’s what Edward thought in his heart.

Meanwhile, in Mabel Quinn’s bedroom, Mabel watched as Kyle Kinston’s bodyguard carried in a suitcase. Kyle opened it, and it was filled with his personal attire, leaving her speechless.

Watching Kyle place piece by piece of clothing from the suitcase into her wardrobe, instantly crowding it fully!

"Why are you putting so many clothes in?" she asked.

"They will come in handy," he replied with a soft smile.
