    <b>Chapter </b>1241 Nothing <b>to </b><b>Do </b><b>with </b>the Whitmans Anymore


    “Lte, I appreciate your kindness, but look at me. I’m already one foot in the grave. Whether I live long or not, we should let nature take its course.”


    Reuben smiled kindly, though it was impossible to tell what he truly thought.


    However, Reuben’s demeanor made Lte find him difficult to deal with.


    For years, she had treated him like her own father, yet he always seemed to keep her at arm’s length. He appeared friendly but never truly listened to her.


    Lte lowered her gaze and suppressed the urge to roll her eyes, her mind full of calctions. When she looked up again, her expression had changed to one of sadness.


    “Mr. Reuben, if you continue like this, Marie will surely me me for not taking good care of you for her when she returns. After all, when Ms. Isabe…” Lte smartly stopped there.


    The mention of old wounds caused Marlon’s eyes to darken. For many years now, he had been avoiding thoughts of his once–beloved sister. After all, Marie’s actions had changed the Whitman family forever.


    Considering this and the recent news, Marlon spoke in a low voice, “Lte, if you’re here to plead for her, you can forget it.


    “She is no longer part of the Whitman family, just as she wished. When my mother went to Kingbourne to see her, she shut the door in her face.


    “From that day on, my mother was depressed and soon passed away. On her deathbed, she told us not to me Marie. We can choose not to me her, but that doesn’t erase the past.”


    Lte knew that Marie was the Achilles heel of the Whitman family.


    Over the years, she had subtly reminded the Whitmans about Marie from time to time. Only then will the effect she wanted be evident. She simply didn’t want the Whitmans to forget the harm Marie had caused them.N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    At this point, Reuben understood something from their conversation. “Has Marie returned?” he asked weakly while coughing heavily.

    Marlon remained silent.


    Lte quickly interjected, “Yes, Mr. Reuben. Did you not know? Not only Marie, but even Wynter hase back.


    “I remember how fond you were of her when she was born. She’s quite formidable now, having taken over the Quinnell family. Has she note to visit you?”


    Marlon’s gaze hardened at Reuben’s troubled expression. “It seems the


    Whitman family is still not important enough in the Quinnells‘ eyes. We dare not to trouble them.”


    Hearing this, Lte added fuel to the fire. “Marlon, I must say something about Wynter. How could she be busy with other things instead of visiting you guys when she arrived in Hawford?


    “If this gets out, it will surely embarrass you. You are her grandfather and uncle, after all.


    “Even if Marie has severed ties, blood is thicker than water. For Wynter to neglect you like this is disrespectful. I don’t know how the Quinnell family raised her,” she concluded, feigning indignation as if she were part of the Whitmans.


    Marlon and Reuben exchanged looks. They had to agree with Lte. Although they had cut ties with Marie, Wynter was still part of the Whitmans.


    Ever since Marie’s divorce from Shane, Fabian had asionally tried to mend fences, but there was always a barrier.


    It all stemmed from Marie’s words to Isabe. “I’ve married into the Quinnell family. I have nothing to do with the Whitmans anymore!”
