Ophelia looked up. "Mom, I still think you're overthinking. Mr. Reuben wouldn't just overlook Cyrus and hand the Whitman family to Wynter." "Not necessarily." Tamia glanced away. "You might have forgotten since many years have passed. But from the moment that girl was born, she stole all the attention from Cyrus.
"Despite being the Whitman family's eldest grandson, that girl's first birthday was given more attention than Cyrus'. Your late mother-in-law was foolish, and you can't allow this situation to continue.
"Look at the Blaise family's situation. More people will rally behind this girl from the Quinnells. What will Cyrus do then? As the Whitman family's eldest grandson, won't he feel awkward?" Each question from Tamia made Ophelia fall into deeper silence. She had never considered these issues before.

Tamia understood Ophelia's temperament well. She knew not to push too hard and knew Ophelia needed tto cto her own conclusions.
"I'll explain things with the Wray family. You don't need to put so much pressure on Cyrus." Tamia turned off her phone before continuing, "These matters are undoubtedly your father-in-law's decisions.
"While he has sharp business acumen, you know he's always been indifferent toward Cyrus. I'll leave it at that. You should think about it yourself." Tamia stood up. "I am currently in a difficult position to meet with that son-in-law of mine. After all, I'm a villain in the Whitmans' eyes." "Mom, don't say that. Noah didn't mean it that way." Ophelia hurriedly defended Noah.
Tamia, however, saw things clearly. "His opinion ofisn't important. What matters is whether he has considered what's best for you and Cyrus.
"If your relationship with him has soured because of your cousin's situation, you need to think carefully about where you and Cyrus stand in his eyes.
"Are you and Cyrus more important to him than his sense of responsibility toward the Whitman family?" The final statement left Ophelia, who had not experienced much turmoil, to suddenly feel anxious.
It was true that ever since the incident, Noah had only questioned her without trying to have a serious discussion. Was it really because their relationship had soured? The more Ophelia thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. Her expression grew increasingly troubled.
She stood up as well to see Tamia off. After a moment's thought, she sent out a message.
At this moment, Wynter was still in the car as she began to reassess her strategies in light of the situation's complexity.

With so many responsibilities on her plate, she needed someone m completely detached from any vested interests but whom she could trust to keep an eye on certain aspects. Otherwise, there was a risk of potential oversights. After considering her options, she decided that the best person for the job would be her capable and reliable Dalton.
Hence, after wrapping up matters with the Blaise family, she didn'tm return to to Quaint villa. Instead, she drove directly to the hotel where they had previously stayed. Meanwhile, Cyrus looked as if he was deep in thought as he continuously glanced at his phone.
Wynter wasn't stupid. She raised an eyebrow and asked in a light tone, "Are you staying withor heading back?"
Cyrus closed his eyes briefly before setting his phone to silent mode. His stance was clear as he spoke in a low Voice that was tinged with melancholy, "It's my mom." Wynter wasn't particularly surprised. "It's natural for Aunt Ophelia to be concerned, especially with you followingaround like this." From the situation, Wynter could discern the essence of Ophelia's character. She wasn't malicious, but she was not very clear-headed, either.
