The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1342



Chapter 1342 The Quinnells and Whitmans Unite

In the end, Cyrus couldn’t keep quiet any longer. “Wait a minute. Is this some kind of misunderstanding?”

“Are you pleading for him?” Wynter raised an eyebrow, her tone getting colder.

Cyrus was unlike the rest of the Whitmans. He was less domineering but cared deeply about family ties. “I just think it’s better to clear things up if there’s any misunderstanding. He is my uncle, after all.”

It’s indeed better to clear things up.” Wynter surprisingly agreed with Cyrus. She signaled the people to throw Easton on the ground. “Speak. I’m listening.”

Easton no longer dared to speak in vague terms after everything that had just happened.

He confessed everything, from how he had betrayed the Whitman family and mistreated them to how he had prevented Marie from returning to the Whitman residence. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Cyrus looked utterly bewildered. He reacted as if he was hearing about a completely different world. “Are you saying that Ms. Lynette was behind all of this? How could that be?”

He turned to ask Noah, “Dad! How is that possible?”

Noah took a deep breath, his voice low. “How did I end up with a son like you?”

Cyrus clenched his fists. “I know you and Grandpa look down on me, but I just want to understand. The Wray family has always been close to us. Ms. Lynette has always been so good to me and Grandpa. They have no reason to speak ill of my aunt.”

Reuben’s face had already darkened considerably.

Wynter signaled her subordinates to take Easton away. She had to give Lynette a surprise after what she had done to the Whitmans.

Then, she walked over to Cyrus and said in a tone that was neither cold nor warm, “Cyrus, sometimes you need to clear your head.”

Cyrus frowned. “What do you mean?”

He was slightly intimidated by Wynter. She was beautiful, but how could she just break a person’s hand? Cyrus had always wanted someone akin to a younger sister, but now that his wish had come true, she was not quite what he had imagined.

Wynter could see that Cyrus‘ nature wasn’t bad, but he was just too naive. “Make sure you don’t have a head full of water.”

Cyrus, who was still thinking about how to communicate with Wynter, felt his face flush. Was she implying that he didn’t have a brain?

Wynter didn’t drag things out and handed the situation over to Noah. “Uncle Noah, you explain it to him. I think Cyrus is not a bad person, so take your time explaining. I have some matters to discuss with Uncle Taylor.”

Noah understood that Wynter was doing this to save him from embarrassment. He also noticed the look she gave him. It was clear that Reuben and Marie needed some time alone. After so many years apart, they would undoubtedly have a lot to discuss.

He exchanged a glance with Taylor and ordered everyone to leave.

Marie could no longer hold back anymore. She walked up to Reuben and spoke with a trembling voice, Dad, I’m home late.

“It’s my fault, it’s my…” Reuben’s voice choked up as he spoke.

He didn’t say much more and instead gently rested his hand on Marie’s head and tenderly patted it. “It’s good to have you back. Your mother and I have missed you very much.”

The last few words were spoken with a trembling voice that almost broke.

Finally, the Whitmans could return to how things once were, and Marie had come home.

Cyrus was still in a daze when Wynter directly had him taken away.

She then sat down with Taylor in a nearby spot. The setting sun’s warm glow streamed through the windows, adding a touch of warmth to their serious conversation.

“Uncle Taylor, I understand you might have reservations about my actions today,” Wynter began, her tone firm yet understanding. “But please trust that there is a reason behind everything I did.”

Taylor sighed softly, his eyes reflecting a mixture of emotions. “Wynter, you’ve grown up. I’m glad to see that you have your own ideas and principles.

“But the business world is like a battlefield. One wrong move can lead to many more. The Wray family is not easy to deal with, and you-

“Uncle Taylor, I understand your concerns,” Wynter interrupted, her eyes gleaming with wisdom. “But precisely because the Wray family is powerful, we cannot afford to sit idly by.

“The Quinnell and Whitman families are closely connected. When one prospers, the other benefits. And when one suffers, the other suffers.

“Right now, we must not only save ourselves but also unite to support those old enterprises that are equally struggling.”
