Chapter 1169

Inside the Burke Estate, Adler and Jenna lugged a massive chest downstairs.

Jenna, exhausted, put her hands on her hips. "Man, that old lady sure knows how to hoard! What's in here that's so heavy?"

Adler chuckled. "Didn't we see it before? Jewelry and, oh yeah, fifty kilograms of gold bars."

"Could it be part of her dowry? Dowries can be super valuable!"
