NovelEnglishChapter 1536 A Gentle Warning People said Marie married Shane out of blind love. But Rosalyn knew better than anyone that a woman wouldn't have the ability to foresee betrayal from the start.
After all, when a man pursued a woman, he'd be willing to offer the stars in the sky and the moon by the sea.
But once that love faded, the woman becless than a puppet. He would hate the sight of his wife but knew he couldn't get rid of her because there were still things he needed from her.
Rosalyn took a deep breath, her gaze falling on a family portrait nearby. In it was her father's image, a reminder of his presence.

Back then, Edison used to say he'd give up the company for her. He'd follow whatever her father said, and he would go to him for advice on every decision, no matter how big or small. Back then, he didn't mind being "controlled".
Rosalyn laughed as tears streaked down her face. She stared blankly at her phone, deep in thought. After a moment, she decided to send an anonymous message to Marie.
"Tell your daughter to be careful these days. She might be targeted, and not by the aristocratic families." Wynter was the person Marie cared for the most in her life, and this strange warning immediately unsettled her. She tried calling back, but the number was unreachable, and subsequent attempts led to a deadline. Still, there was no malice in the message's tone. It seemed like someone was trying to secretly alert her.
But this was what made Marie even more anxious. It was as if someone was unable to tell her openly and had to resort to relaying the message secretly.
"That means Wynter really might be targeted," Marie muttered.
Without hesitation, she shared the information with her two brothers.
"Who else if not the aristocratic families?" Marie was repeating this question.
Noah and Taylor exchanged glances after reading the message. They both had a sinking feeling, and an unsettling answer began to take shape in their minds.
It would still be manageable if it were the aristocratic families. At least they understood their opponents. However, two major concerns loomed over them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFirst, the stock market fluctuation had been significant. Wynter's actions to protect domestic investors' funds had upset powerful foreign interests who had long viewed Cascadian retail investors as easy targets.
The recent stock market movement had been meticulously planned to drain as much local capital as possible, and Wynter had disrupted their entire scheme.
Second, the true force behind the Wray family might be coming into play. Even someone like Marie, who hadn't been in Hawford for years, could sense it.
She paused, trembling slightly as the thought struck her. "The Wray family's meteoric rise in recent years hasn't been simple. It's the force behind the Wray family that's going after Wynter!" Marie felt a chill run down her spine as she voiced her thoughts. Just how powerful was this hidden figure, to have the entire Wray family so tightly under their thumb? Marie raised her head, her voice hoarse. "Noah, Taylor, does Dad still have any connections in the military?"
"Don't worry, we can still reach them." Noah's voice was deep and reassuring. It exuded a sense of M 10. It exuded security. We won't let Wynter stay in danger like this. If someone is abusing their power, I'll be the first to get justice for her.
"The previous loyalists from the Quinnell family are still in Hawford. You know this, Marje -those people might not acknowledge Wynter as the family's new head, but they won't ignore Mr. Gordon's bloodline. When it comes down to it, they'll step in to protect her." X
