Chapter 284 Wynter's Formidable and Mysterious Background Abel was an information collector, and it helped that he loved indulging in gossip. "No, Boss! The Quinnells are as rich as kings. But if I must be honest, it's a good thing you're the long-lost daughter they've been looking for.
"Any other young lady would have a hard tfitting in the Quinnells' dynamics. It'll be like feeding chum to the sharks." Wynter's voice was unamused as she asked, “Right, enough of this. Did you find anything on Mr. Rathbone?" "Mr. Rathbone of Southdale comes from three generations of antique dealers," Abel replied dutifully as he scrolled through the information he'd found. “Of course, this is just a cover act.

Wynter's expression remained unchanged as she took this in. "What do you mean by 'unwanted artifacts?" "Probably those that were dug up from the earth," Abel guessed. He asked in hushed tones, "Boss, do you think those artifacts dug up from the ground are still circulating on the market? The government Altra Comdulile and typennus Backgroumm would have seized them all, right?" "I want more information on Erwin. Find out when he's coming back to the country. I plan to meet him," Wynter said instead of answering Abel's question, her fingers tapping against the purple sugilite pendant she was wearing.
"Yes, Boss!" Abel began his investigation at once.
Before ending the call, Wynter said, "By the way, tell Mr. Lopez Senior to stop worrying about finding a new school for me. I'll be bringing Grandma to Kingbourne withsometthis month.

"You said if I did, it'd be like throwing chum to the sharks." "I mean, you could go and get smoney out of them." Abel rubbed his hands deviously. "Also, you're no chum. You can survive them, and I doubt shark-infested waters could bring you down anyway." Wynter drawled, "Yeah, I'm not interested. The courtyard has to be big. Wolf doesn't like small ones." "Got it!"

"I can tell by the way she finished her pizza last night that she's not picky about food. That's more than I can say about her bratty brothers." It was clear to see that Fabian was enamored with Wynter Alexis tried to hide his laughter. Before he could speak, his phone rang.
He couldn't help his annoyance when he saw the caller ID. "Mr. Quinnell, it's your son."
"Shane?" The smile on Fabian's face sl*pped. "Here, I'll take it ! figured he should know his daughter has finally been found." Alexis obediently handed the phone to Fabian.
