Chapter 467: Chapter 467

On the side, Alessia Quinn’s mother, Camille Grant, also pulled her daughter and said, "Alright, your granny likes Mabel. I guess it’s because she saw Mabel being without a father from a young age, and now not getting along well with her mother, so she feels sympathy. You know, your granny has always been kind-hearted."

Camille Grant’s words were truly insincere. Granny Taylor has never been associated with being kind-hearted. A woman, after her husband’s death, had to lead the entire family with two sons; she needed to be decisive and resolute. Otherwise, the Quinn family’s estate wouldn’t have been handed over to Edward Quinn intact.

Back then, Camille Grant had a son and a daughter and put in a lot of effort to please the old lady for ten years. Finally, the old lady acknowledged her existence, allowing her son and daughter to be included in the Quinn Family’s genealogy, which shows the old lady’s character.

Although Camille Grant also did not like Mabel Quinn very much, within the Quinn Family, both the old lady and Edward Quinn were quite fond of Mabel. And now, during the period of vying for the Quinn Family’s inheritance, Camille Grant did not want to stir up trouble that might affect her son’s future. Therefore, she just secretly told her daughter to endure this period for now.

In the hospital room, Granny Taylor held Mabel Quinn’s hand while talking about some past events, like stories of the past with the old master Quinn, her own struggles raising two sons alone, and some stories about Mabel Quinn’s father when he was young.

Mabel Quinn listened very intently, especially when it came to her father, and she didn’t want to miss a single detail.

"Your father was truly a man of deep emotions and righteousness. The Quinn Family owes him a great debt," the old lady murmured.

"A great debt?" Mabel Quinn asked curiously. Follow current novels on novel⦿fire.net

But Granny Taylor did not continue on this topic and instead said, "In life, one will inevitably make many mistakes. Some mistakes can be corrected, but some..." She paused, looking at Mabel Quinn, "Throughout my life, even when I knew I was wrong, I would never admit it, nor would I regret it. But there was one thing I truly got wrong and often regret. If I hadn’t done what I did back then, would many things be different now?"

Mabel Quinn thought for a moment and said, "Granny, if you truly regret something, then perhaps you can make amends now, and the regret might lessen."

"Make amends?" Granny Taylor chuckled bitterly, "There is no way to make amends for a human life."

Mabel Quinn was stunned. A human life? What does this mean? Could it be that someone died at Granny’s hands back then? Or did someone die because of her?

But she knew that this topic should probably not be pursued further, as it veered into certain taboos.

Granny Taylor continued, "Mabel, what if one day you find out that Granny made a mistake? Would you forgive Granny?"

The old lady’s eyes held a kind of pleading longing as she looked at Mabel Quinn.

Mabel Quinn thought Granny might be getting confused in her old age, having thought of the past. Even if Granny did make a mistake, she didn’t need to seek her forgiveness.

But seeing the other’s gaze at the moment, Mabel Quinn still said, "You are my granny and have always been good to me. Even if you did something wrong, I would still forgive you."

Granny Taylor’s grip on her hand suddenly tightened, her eyes fixated on her, "Is this—your true feeling?"
