Chapter 700
"Granny Atherton, please calm down... Perhaps that Summer is not Miss Summer Atherton." Kelly quickly helped Granny Atherton up and said gently. Her gaze simultaneously fell upon Quinn.
This girl looked nothing like Miss Summer Atherton.
Quinn seemed to have been taken aback by Granny Atherton. She held her by her arm and explained desperately, "Why do I need to lie to you? My mother had indeed passed away! She died when giving birth to me! Granny, what is your relationship with my mother?"
Granny Atherton was about to blurt out the truth. However, her blood flowed, and then she composed herself.
Everyone knew that she was searching high and low for her daughter.
This bangle had disappeared from the public’s eyes ages ago, and now it just surfaced suddenly...
Could it be someone's conspiracy?
However, if what this girl said was true, she was her granddaughter then!
Granny Atherton then resumed her usual calmness and stood straight with Kelly's help. She looked at Quinn and said gently, "Are you willing to sell this bangle to me? I can give you a good price."
"This is a relic from my mother. I am sorry, I cannot sell it. Since you are unwilling to tell me what your relationship with my mother is, I have to leave.” Quinn remembered Lola's advice that if Granny Atherton was doubtful about her identity, she could not be desperate but better take a step back.
Therefore, she said that she was about to leave.
Kelly held her arm out and attempted to stop her.
Granny Atherton stopped Kelly's gestures and shook her head at her.
After Quinn disappeared from their vision, Kelly asked," Granny Atherton, are you really letting this girl walk away just like that?"
"Ask someone to check on it. I want to know everything about this girl!" Granny Atherton ordered.
When Quinn appeared, she did not have a strong feeling of familiarity.
However, she was very certain that the bangle was an article that belonged to the Atherton family!
Granny Atherton did not want to give her verdict before seeing the outcome of the investigation.
Over these years, she had instructed many people to investigate Summer's whereabouts.
From time to time, there was news about some girl resembling Summer appearing somewhere. Every time, she would desperately rush forward to confirm if that was her daughter, only to come back disappointed every time.
Since she had already waited for so long, she did not mind waiting longer.
She did not want to believe that her Summer had passed away just like that.
In fact, she always kept this tiny hope up that this girl was not her granddaughter, and the Summer that she was referring to was not the same person.
Quinn had been waiting. She was waiting for Granny Atherton to call her back or for her sidekick to pursue after her.
She could not help but feel defeated and flustered.
After making sure that there was no one around, she called Lola.
