The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 510

Wynter hadn't delved into Marie's family background. But from Marie's description, she was quite certain her uncles were just as devoted as Tobias, making the Whitmans appear less dubious than the Quinnell family.

Her focus had been on investigating the Quinnell family, particularly concerning the Earthbound Formation and Fabian's death that she had foreseen.

She had identified several individuals of interest, notably her great uncle, Declan Quinnell. It was rumored that Declan was affluent but idle, receiving only modest dividends annually.

Wynter had tasked people with investigating the matters she had dreamed of. Despite her dreams portraying Declan in a positive light, she remained vigilant.

Rather than overt threats, she was more wary of those who seemed innocuous yet enigmatic.

The uneasy feeling of Shane being closer to Declan than his own father, Fabian, lingered in Wynter's mind.

According to Fabian, Shane was weak but had a penchant for showing off. Unable to endure Fabian's stern directives, Shane often sought solace in Declan's gentle counsel, leading to a closer relationship between them.

Wynter hadn't delved too deeply into this matter. After all, she had encountered Shane herself and thought he indeed matched the description: arrogant and self-centered, masking his selfishness with displays of familial concern.

Shane did seem like someone who would vent his frustrations to someone else after being scolded. But was he truly so simple-minded, only seeking solace from Declan?

Wynter recalled Shane's words to Tobias in her dream. How foolish was Shane to align himself with an outsider like Naomi to the extent of alienating his own son?

It would make sense if Naomi were his illegitimate daughter, but Fabian had investigated and confirmed otherwise.

What was Shane's motive, then? Even the most foolish person wouldn't defend someone without any tangible benefit, especially not a businessman like Shane.

Wynter vowed to unravel this peculiar phenomenon.
