The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1469

The only person who recognized Wynter as a threat stood elegantly beside her. "Are you planning to sort the Montclair family out? Should I send my men?"

Wynter cast a glance at Dalton and turned down his offer. "No need for that. I'll take care of it myself."

She didn't want to be cruel, but Tamia was forcing her hand.

Dalton fixed Wynter with a meaningful gaze. "You haven't changed a bit—always putting your family before anything else."

It was the same back when Wynter was part of the sect. She was ready to repay those harming her fellow sectarians tenfold, even if the one threatening them was Dalton himself.

Wynter was puzzled by Dalton's unexpected jealousy. "Who else would I care for if not my family?"

Dalton remained silent, though he flashed a cold smile in return.

Wynter stared at him for a moment before taking his hand. "Come on, be reasonable. You're marrying into the Quinnel family soon, which makes you family, too."

Stunned, Dalton looked at her hand before shifting his gaze to her face, where he found emotions in her eyes that he couldn't quite decipher.

Meanwhile, Noah had stopped working when he received the footage. He remained seated as he peered out of the bustling street from his window. His fists were clenched tightly as he struggled to contain his emotions.

Some time later, he ordered that an email be sent to Cyrus.

It seemed that Cyrus had been garnering plenty of attention. Not only was Wynter concerned about him, but his father had also kept him in mind.

"You know that I've dedicated myself entirely to this family over the years. No matter how late you returned from work, warm food was always on the table.

"While I may not be able to help with your company affairs, I've done a lot for Cyrus. He's the Whitman family's eldest child, and he's your son," Ophelia started.

Noah slightly bent down and replied, "I understand your points. Just tell me what you want to say. I'll see what I can do."

Hearing that, Ophelia burst into tears. "You know the land Sevie acquired, right? I thought it was a bad investment and told Cyrus to pull his funds. I never expected it to become profitable!

"But even if Cyrus didn't invest, he deserves credit for his hard work. Without Cyrus' connection, Sevie wouldn't have been able to purchase a single plot of land.

"He worked so hard to get Sevie a good start, yet all Sevie had to do was make the payment. I meant to have Marie advise Sevie on this, but she told me I'm not worthy of the Whitman family!"
