Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 79: Kellan had not yet spoken, but the elderly butler behind him was visibly stunned by the revelation.

This necklace is the only memento Mrs.

Lloyd left behind.

A long time ago, she specifically stated that it was to be passed on to her daughter-in-law, as a symbol of the rightful mistress of the house.

Allison narrowed her eyes, surprised by the strange coincidence.

The memory of Kellan's mother was identical to the one his own mother had left him.

Indeed, this was left by my mother.

Instead of answering directly, Kellan removed his necklace and, in a low, resonant voice, commented: Miss Clarke, if you aspire to be mistress of the house, this necklace would suit you splendidly.

The old butler kept a stunned silence.

He was dreaming.

He felt like his heart was going to burst from shock.

It had been ages since he had seen Kellan wear such a relaxed smile.

Since Kellan's return from years of isolation, he had been burdened with fragmented memories and deep-seated traumas.

The butler barely remembered the last time Kellan had cracked a joke.

Over the past few years, Kellan had always seemed tense, as if the weight of the world rested on his shoulders.
