Chapter 294 A New ce for Troublemaking


    Margaret had been wondering if she should move to Kingbourne with Wynter, but now, it seemed


    moving was inevitable.


    She might not be able to help Wynter with much, but at least she


    could keep an eye on thetter.


    Presently, Margaret and Fabian were getting along swimmingly.


    They pored over photos of Wynter from when she was a child. “See her nk little face and her empty


    gaze? I was worried she was


    falling behind on her studies, but she went ahead and became the top


    scorer of the district!”


    Fabian’s eyes lit up. “Top scorer of the district?” He knew Wynter had


    taken after his intelligence and practicality. He wished he could say


    the same for Rowan and Tobias, who showed more interest in


    performing arts than academic excellence.


    “That’s right,” Margaret confirmed. She added guiltily, “At the end o the day, my family could have done


    better in raising Wynter. That insolent son of mine and his wife weren’t exactly kind to her.”


    Margaret went on to tell Fabian what Ewan and Wanda had put Wynter through.


    Fabian waspassionate. “But none of those have anything to do with you. In any case, you raised


    Wynter on your own. That’s why


    Wynter is so adamant about providing for you and taking care of you.”


    “Wynter tends to bottle up her feelings.” Margaret slid,a photo to


    Fabian as she said, “She’s stubborn, and she will always stand up for


    what is right regardless of the consequences.


    “I know it’s not my ce to say this, but pleasee to her defense if


    she were to offend anybody in the Quinnell family.”


    Fabian’s heart wrenched at Margaret’s words. He knew her concerns


    were not unreasonable. It wasn’t a secret that the Quinnells had


    sponsored Naomi and ended up pseudo-adopting her.


    However, that decision was rearing its ugly head now that Fabian had


    to shield his biological granddaughter from any potential harm.


    He gripped his cane tightly and said reassuringly, “Madam, I promise I


    will not allow anyone to pick on Wynter as long as I’m alive.


    “She’s the youngest. I’ll let her do whatever she wants, and I won’t have anyone reprimanding her for


    anything. That’s the least we can


    do for her.”


    Margaret understood what he meant. Her voice was hoarse as she said gratefully, “Well, I’m d to


    hear that, Mr. Quinnell.”


    Thest thing Margaret wanted was for Wynter to suffer any more.


    hardship.


    Fabian grinned. “You can call me Fabian from now on. Shall we proceed with more stories from


    Wynter’s childhood?”


    “Of course,” Margaret replied graciously. “Now, Wynter has always


    been friendly, and here at Waterview Alley…”


    Just like that, the two of them spent the entire afternoon sharing


    stories over a pot of tea.


    Ryan was more than happy to top up tea and biscuits for the elderly


    duo. As for the bodyguards who hade with Fabian, they were dragged to practice some punching


    moves with Wolf.


    Wolf was displeased to find a small crowd in his courtyard at first,


    given that they were taking up his space for free. He resorted to


    glowering at the guests until Wynter whispered something in his ear


    that cheered him up.


    He signed out the question, “We get to kick some ass in Kingbourne?”


    “Mind yournguage, Wolf. I said we were going to make money.


    there, not kick some ass,” Wynter correctedzily. “Now, go and y.


    Remember, this is just training, so don’t hurt anyone.”


    Wolf’s eyes glittered at this.


    A whileter, the bodyguards found themselves at Wolf’s mercy, and


    they couldn’t help getting upset. They wondered, “How can a child his age have such tremendous


    strength?”


    Wolf was just getting warmed up when Dalton showed up at


    Waterview Alley with his entourage.


    Pausing, Wolf looked up at Dalton sullenly, his hostility showing on


    his little face.


    The bodyguards were incredulous and wondered if they had simply imagined Wolf’s strong dislike for


    Dalton.


    Dalton, on the other hand, met Wolf’s gaze.


    Wolf narrowed his eyes and snarled. He was about to lunge for Dalton when Dalton pulled out a bank


    card and tapped it against the


    little boy’s head. “Where is she?”


    Chaoke.

    Naturally, Wolf knew who Dalton was asking after. He grinned and


    took the bank card from Dalton, then pointed in the general direction


    of the farmer’s market.


    The bodyguards nearly gasped as they thought, “How could Dalton hand over a bank card to a child so


    easily?”

    “Take me there,” Dalton said to Wolf. He stood tall and straight,


    looking elegant and chivalrous as he extended a hand toward Wolf.


    He was silently asking Wolf to hold his hand, but Wolf signed at him


    angrily after some thought, “That’ll cost you extra!”
