The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1480

After all, Ophelia's methods of marrying Noah had never been something she could openly boast about. Her pride she desperately wanted to save could only be redeemed through Cyrus' success. Now, all she had her sights set on were the company's shares.

A mother who truly loved her child would fight for custody during a divorce. But Ophelia left without hesitation, her mind fixated not on Cyrus but on her growing resentment toward Wynter. She didn't even consider taking Cyrus with her.

Just as Cyrus had said—he wasn't stupid. Even if there had been things he didn't understand before, everything became crystal clear after today's confrontation. Ophelia carried the same blood as Tamia.

He used to think Ophelia's indecision was due to Tamia's manipulation. But now he realized that no amount of persuasion would have worked if she didn't have those thoughts herself.

Over the years, Ophelia had always followed Tamia's lead because, deep down, they were fundamentally the same.

The venomous words she spoke about Wynter sounded like a curse dripping with malice.

Cyrus glanced sideways at Wynter. An apology instinctively formed in his mind again, but he quickly dismissed it. What Ophelia had done wasn't something a simple apology could fix.

Those words spoken by Ophelia would undoubtedly hurt anyone's feelings. However, Wynter was still talking about sending the Montclairs to prison.

Ophelia helped Tamia out of Quaint Villa.

As they walked out, they met Dalton, who was standing by the door. He had a phone conference and hence, didn't enter with Wynter. However, he had heard everything clearly.

He stood there with emotionless eyes. His gaze landed on Ophelia's face. "Those who spread malicious gossip will go to the first level of hell. You will have your tongue ripped out."

Ophelia had met Dalton before. But when he spoke those words, the sky darkened all of a sudden. Her face turned pale instantly, as if life had been drained from her. She trembled and gripped Tamia's hand tightly.

Ophelia clenched her fists. "There's one more thing! Mom, ask Mr. Wray when we can finally crush that bitch! I want her to end up with nothing!"

"It'll be soon." Tamia's eyes glinted with cunningness."It should happen in about two to three days. I heard that the Wray family had set a trap for the Quinnell family, with foreign investors involved. No matter how sly that girl is, she'll be stripped bare!"

Tamia scoffed at the idea that Wynter thought she could send the Montclairs behind bars. Even the Whitman family wouldn't dare to have that thought. Yet, this mere girl dared to get ahead of herself.

The Montclair family had roots just as deep as the Whitman family. With her connections in Hawford, Tamia was confident she could crush Wynter with just a few strategic moves.

Tamia had no intentions of revealing her cards just yet. She had to secure the shares first!
