Chapter 511

    Chapter 511 Oversight Was Not His Only Sin


    “Well, Dalton does have a pretty face.”


    “I’ve always known Dalton to be c u n n i n g. As long as Wynter likes him, it doesn’t really matter if he


    has a


    dark side.”


    “Sebastian, you’re the same age as Dalton, aren’t you? So, you must know him better than us.”


    “Me? Not as well as Tobias, I’d say. I remember Tos cried for a whole day when he first met Dalton!


    So, I’m surprised that Dalton lets Wynter have her way with him.”


    Suddenly, Sebastian posed a question. “Are you sure Wynter is the one who pursued him?”


    Tobias typed in response, ‘It seems that way.”


    Sebastian felt it required further verification, though.


    However, this wasn’t the main subject Tobias wanted to discuss with his brothers. He wanted to share


    everything Wynter had told him regarding Marie, especially now that their eldest brother, Albert, had


    joined their group chat.


    After Tobias had confided Wynter’s spection to his elder brothers, except Elliot who was absent, the


    atmosphere in the group suddenly turned solemn. The four elder brothers’ expressions instantly turned


    cold upon reading Tobias’ message.


    “So, Wynter’s suggesting that someone orchestrated her abduction and Mom’s illness behind the


    scenes?”


    Sebastian, who was in the middle of a lively conversation at the Hawford Legal Elites, suddenly


    adopted an icy demeanor beneath his gold-rimmed sses.


    Sebastian Quinnell stood out as the Quinnell family’s most unconventional member.


    Unlike the others, he didn’t conform to the typical Quinnell traits of honesty and straightforwardness.


    Instead, he carried himself with an entric demeanor, often revealing a darker side.


    Since moving out of the Quinnell family and bing an attorney, Sebastian typically wore a gentle


    smile on his face, regardless of the cases he handled.


    However, this friendly demeanor often elicited wariness from others, as they suspected he might be


    concealing ulterior motives.


    ? ?? ????


    Despite his c u n n i n g reputation among attorneys, this was the first time he disyed such a cold


    gaze in front of his peers. His eyes bore a steely intensity, hinting that his usual facade was on the


    verge of being stripped away.


    Tobias borated, “Wynter is incredibly capable and knowledgeable. She even rescued me during a


    filming ident. She mentioned that Mom’s disorientation disorder wasn’t a coincidence but was


    deliberate.”


    “Disorientation disorder?” Sebastian found the term peculiar, but it surprisingly matched Marie’s


    symptoms.

    Since Marie had fallen ill, they had sought help from psychologists, but to no avail. As Marie gradually


    transformed into apletely different person, Shane even advised them not to upset Marle further.


    As a seasoned attomey, Sebastian swiftly discerned the situation’s abnormalities and inquired, “Did


    Wynter mention Dad’s involvement in Mom’s condition?”


    Taken aback, Tobias replied with hesitation, “Sebastian, what are you implying?”


    Upon reading Sebastian’s spection, the grouppsed into a momentary silence.


    Sebastian followed up with a voice message, his tone nonchnt.


    “My choice of words may seem harsh, but the truth remains that Dad is likely more aware of Mom’s


    condition than anyone else. Yet, he failed to provide any substantial assistance in her recovery.


    “I presume Wynter harbors suspicious about this, but she chose not to disclose to you.”


    Tobias was startled by Sebastian’s astute observation.


    He suddenly realized that despite Marie being present with them, Shane, who typically apanied


    her,


    was absent.


    Furthermore, Wynter rarely brought up Shane during their conversations, despite already having met


    him.


    Tobias also recalled Fabian mentioning Shane’s absurd way of handling things.


    “Wynter isn’t inclined to ept Dad as her father,” Sebastian calmly asserted.


    “No, let me rephrase that,” he suddenly added. “Not only is Wynter reluctant to ept Dad, but she


    also harbors a dislike, or even resentment, toward him. She didn’t tell you because she didn’t want to


    hurt b


    feelings.”N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
