Chapter 1388: The Opportunity to Make Up for Him

Robert Powell knit his brow, but he dared not go against his mother. He wanted nothing more than to reunite with his daughter, so he could only nod, "We'll do as you say, mother. Quinn has grown up beside me, and she has become my own daughter. Just because Xaviera's back, I can't simply disown her."

The expression on Madam Powell's face softened a little. "You can go and find her. But after she comes back, if she isn't fit to be a young miss of the Powell family, we can't add her to our family genealogy yet. She can temporarily live with us as a relative, until she qualifies to be the young miss of the Powell family. Understand?"

Jimmy, standing by the doorway, let out a helpless sigh. He had heard the same words from Madam Powell more than twenty years ago. Back then she'd said, 'I can allow her to come into this household. But they can't get married yet. If she isn't fit to become Madam Powell, she'll have to live with us as a mistress until she qualifies to be Madam Powell.'
