Chapter 1219 - 1258: Owed Apologies
Daniel Harris hugged so tightly that Mabel Quinn’s chest and back felt a dull pain, but she didn’t cry out. She understood Daniel Harris’s feelings.
After all, she had made him worry for so many years. She wanted to cut all ties with Kyle Kinston, but ended up making those who cared for her so troubled.
At this moment, the meeting room was silent. Everyone was shocked by the scene before them, each with their own speculations in mind.
A single hug had disrupted the entire meeting. It had originally been a very important meeting, but it seemed everyone’s mind was elsewhere, with their eyes darting back and forth between Mabel Quinn and Daniel Harris’s faces.
When the meeting ended, Sister Han pulled Mabel Quinn aside to a quiet corner and asked, "What’s going on? Do you know Director Harris? Why have you never mentioned it before? And what did Director Harris mean when he said you’re still alive?"
In short, Sister Han was now filled with confusion.
Mabel said, "Yes, we know each other. I met Director Harris when I was a child, so... we are old friends. At the time, I had a maritime accident, and after that, I didn’t contact him, so he thought I had already perished. He never expected I was still alive."
This answer from Mabel was truthful, but the many intricacies of the story were unknown to Sister Han.
Sister Han said, "You really are something. After such a big incident, surviving against the odds, how could you not tell your friends? Looking at Director Harris just now, he seemed like..." Sister Han paused suddenly.
Because just now she wanted to say that Director Harris’s expression was like seeing a loved one come back to life.
The shock, the excitement, and the gratitude couldn’t be for an ordinary friend.
So, Sister Han looked at Mabel with a peculiar expression and suddenly said, "Could it be that Ivy’s biological father is actually Director Harris?"
Mabel broke into a sweat, "No, you’re overthinking it. Director Harris isn’t Ivy’s biological father. Her biological father... well, it’s someone else."
She just didn’t want to reveal that Ivy’s biological father was Kyle Kinston.
Sister Han, seeing Mabel say this, realized she had overthought it, so the topic was dropped.
Mabel packed up her things, and when she reached the ground floor of the building, she saw Daniel Harris sitting in the lobby’s lounge area. As soon as he saw her coming out of the elevator, he stepped forward to greet her.
"Are you heading back?" Daniel Harris asked.
"Yes." Mabel nodded, "I never thought we would meet again in such a setting."
"Yeah, I didn’t think so either. Just now... in the meeting room, I got too emotional," he said. In that moment, he couldn’t help but hug her, forgetting to think of everything else.
"But even if we hadn’t met today, I was planning to head to City J to see you soon, to tell you I’m still alive. I’m sorry for keeping it from you all these years," Mabel said. Back then, Daniel Harris had helped her so much, and even after the maritime accident, he had searched for her; she owed him far too much.
