When Kyle Keaton saw that the woman’s appearance was about seventy to eighty percent similar to July Quinn, he guessed her identity.
She was July Quinn’s biological mother, Laura Quinn.
She was also the future mistress of Marsden Estate, for whom today’s party was held.
But what made Kyle Keaton abandon so actions and greet her with politeness and humility was because she was his mother-in-law.
"Hello, Ms. Laura Quinn. I’m very sorry, I didn’t intend to make trouble at your party. I just thought this lady looked a lot like my wife, so..."
His politeness and eloquence, along with his innate extraordinary aura, made it easy for Laura Quinn to know that this man was lowering his stance to communicate with her.
But the problem was, she had never t this gentleman before.
The only reason he would suddenly change his posture was the confrontation with July Quinn just now.
"Wife?"
Laura Quinn echoed the word the man ntioned and looked suspiciously at July Quinn.
Yes, a woman’s sixth sense told her that it was highly likely the man was telling the truth about July being his wife.
However, at the mont, July’s identity was not convenient to be exposed.
So, Laura Quinn quickly played dumb: "This young lady is Jennings’ companion, not your wife."
July Quinn leaned into Jennings’ embrace accordingly.
Kyle Keaton squinted his eyes slightly, glaring angrily at that scene, pondering what Laura Quinn ant by those words.
At this mont, Joseph stepped forward: "Since it’s just a misunderstanding, let’s not let the unhappiness linger. Today is my fiancée’s birthday, and I believe Mr. Keaton doesn’t wish to bring any unpleasantness to her."
Prior to this, Joseph had made contact with the Descendant of the Kanes.
From the Descendant of the Kanes, he learned that he did not bear the surna Kane.
Both Joseph and Laura Quinn spoke up, one being the estate’s owner and the other the party’s host.
Kyle Keaton had no choice but to save face.
Moreover, he had also guessed July’s purpose for appearing at this party.
So, he would endure it.
"It seems I might have really mistaken soone else. You may not know, but my wife passed away recently, and I’m still imrsed in grief, unable to extricate myself."
When Kyle Keaton said this, his deep sea-like eyes were still locked onto the woman wearing the fascinator.
However, most of the woman’s face was obscured by the lace edge of the fascinator, making it impossible for Kyle Keaton to discern her expression.
But intuition told him, this woman must be July Quinn.
Because when he danced close to her, he slled the familiar scent from her, July Quinn’s scent.
"Sounds quite saddening. But even so, you cannot take Jennings’ dance partner."
Laura Quinn scrutinized Kyle Keaton, and intuition told her there was definitely so entanglent between this man and her daughter.
Especially at this mont, she could sense that although her daughter showed no emotions, she was enveloped in an inexplicable sadness.
Laura Quinn eased the situation, simply not wanting the atmosphere to be overly tense, in case it affected July’s plan to leave.
Kyle Keaton seed to understand her aning too, and took two glasses of champagne from a waiter’s tray, stepping forward to offer one to the veiled woman.
"Ma’am, I apologize for my earlier rudeness."
Kyle Keaton was the Descendant of the Kanes, expected to be the ruler of Desrozin City within the next couple of years.
No one here wanted to offend him, not even Jennings.
So everyone thought the woman would surely accept the apologetic champagne, even if the man didn’t appear genuinely willing to apologize.
But unexpectedly...
