The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1527

Landon hurried to catch Tamia as she fell, but he was too late. Though Tamia longed to escape the chaos and simply pass out, the throbbing pain in her forehead kept her grounded in the harsh reality.

Panic swept through the Montclair Group.

Weak in the knees, Landon hurriedly asked, "What should we do, Mom? That bastard Alfred must have ratted me out and tried to pin all the blame on me!"

"D-Don't worry, I'm here. I'll definitely get you out of this." Despite being at her wits' end, Tamia stubbornly dug in her heels.

Unfortunately, the SWAT officers were expected to arrive any moment.

Landon's face paled with fear, and he suddenly blurted out, "You made me do this, Mom. You said if I helped the Wrays tamper with Taylor's financial statement, it would give us the upper hand."

Stunned by his words, Tamia spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yet, Landon continued, "Don't worry, Mom. I'll make sure to visit you in prison. Unlike me, you don't have much time left. My life has just begun. Think about your unborn grandson!"

With only a daughter to his name, Landon usually behaved poorly and mistreated his wife. Rather than showing kindness to her daughter-in-law, Tamia had preferred Landon keep mistresses in hopes of bearing a son.

However, she never anticipated her own words would return to bite her.

As she gasped for breath, Tamia could no longer suppress her rage and shouted, "You ungrateful son!"

Edison was immediately reminded of a figure from his past—Lucas Keller.

Back then, Lucas was still struggling with his political standing, but he had now risen to a level far beyond Edison's reach. Edison couldn't help but suspect that Lucas had backers supporting his rapid ascent.

"Don't act rashly. We'll leave the Montclairs to face their fate. Tell Mr. Lark and the others to keep a low profile for now. We'll postpone any dealings with Wynter Quinnell," Edison instructed, hoping to buy some time.

Alas, it was wishful thinking, as Wynter might not give them the chance to recover.

Meanwhile, many people had witnessed the Montclairs' arrest at the Montclair Group. At that point, there was no need for solid evidence to understand the injustice that had befallen Noah.
