Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 719

But Frank stopped him again. “Wait a minute.”

Bennett watched with a puzzled expression as Frank hurried out of the dining room and returned a moment later.

He was holding a jewelry box, which he handed to Bennett.

“This is passed down to the daughters-in-law of the Thompson family. Since you’re going to marry that young woman, you should give this to her.”

Bennett opened the box. Inside lay a bangle of the finest imperial green jade, so vibrant and clear it was practically priceless.

“I thought the Thompson family heirloom was that pair of gold-inlaid jade bracelets Grandmother has,” Bennett remarked casually as he closed the box.

Frank explained, “That pair was part of your great-grandmother’s dowry, used to fool your grandmother who didn’t know any better. This bracelet was originally one of a pair. When your grandfather married your uncle’s biological mother, he gave them to her. After she passed away, your grandfather kept them. When your uncle married, he gave one to your aunt. This one has always been with me.”

Bennett nodded, offering a rare, “Thanks, Dad.”

“Just try not to make me angry so often, and I’ll be thanking you. Now get out of my sight,” Frank said, waving his hand dismissively.

As Bennett walked out of the villa, he noticed Emma’s car was still parked in the courtyard.

He strode over, and a side window slowly rolled down. Emma looked at him and said coolly, “Get in.”

Bennett opened the door and sat beside her in the back seat.

The car started moving, pulling away from the Thompson estate.

“Then she can have it. What’s mine is hers,” Bennett replied without hesitation, as if it were a matter of course.

Emma was left speechless, the anger draining out of her.

A brief silence fell over the car, so heavy that even the driver could feel the tension.

Seeing his mother’s pained expression, Bennett worried he might have actually upset her health. He lowered his voice and said gently, “Mom, Yvonne is marrying me. She’s the one I’ll be spending my life with. You don’t have to dislike her so much. If it bothers you, I’ll have her stay away so she doesn’t upset you.”

Emma glared at him again. “Do you think I’m upset with her? I’m upset with you! You treat that girl like she’s a goddess. If she and I fell into a river at the same time…”

“I would save you, of course,” Bennett cut in before she could finish. “Yvonne knows how to swim. She wouldn’t drown.”
