The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1698

The onlookers breathed a collective sigh of relief. Sure enough, what Theo said was true—Dalton was incredibly approachable when Wynter was around.

This discovery sparked new ideas among them. Perhaps they could wait for her presence before bringing up difficult projects in the future.

Wynter had no idea what they were thinking, though she could sense their gratitude.

Nevertheless, these people were all blessed with fortunes of wealth, and she just happened to be able to siphon a bit of their luck. However…

"I'm here for serious business, and one of my team members is currently missing. I really don't have the luxury to visit Mr. Yarwood Senior right now," Wynter said firmly.

Her mind was consumed by the thought of her missing member. After retrieving Gordon's relics from Serenity Hotel, her urgency to unravel the mystery only deepened.

That member must have discovered something significant to go missing like this. Moreover, every member of the Special Unit possessed unique skills, which meant capturing them wouldn't be easy. Even in the face of danger, they would typically leave traces on the dark web.

However, even Wolf couldn't find a clue. This meant that her team member had been taken without so much as a chance to react. This was highly unusual—unless that member had encountered someone far beyond ordinary.

The deeper Wynter thought about it, the darker her gaze grew.

Dalton could see the worry in her eyes. Still holding her hand, he spoke in a calm, measured tone. "That's precisely why you should meet Grandpa.

"You're here to find your member, and the matter you're investigating is far from ordinary. What could justify both of us coming to Colifernia together without a clear reason?"

Dalton looked down at Wynter, his eyes darkening. "Unless it's for our wedding.

It certainly didn't seem like Wynter was the one pursuing him. If anything, Dalton resembled a pampered man—except for his overwhelming presence that was just too strong to fully sell the image.

For someone like Dalton, certain things had become second nature, especially now that all the fragments of his soul had unified.

After all, in countless lifetimes, he had been pampered like this before. Back then, she'd said the same thing—that she didn't want him as her enemy.

Liar. In the end, didn't she still decide she couldn't stand the sight of him anymore?

But this time, things were different. He wasn't going to let her develop those messy habits again.

Wynter, as usual, kept the way of communicating with her people simple. Once inside the car, she logged into the dark web.
