Chapter 965

Chapter 965 Wynter the skilled actress

Wynter looked at the security guard. “What’s the matter with great uncle?”

The security guard fumbled for an excuse. “Nothing. L- Let me report your arrival.”

‘There’s no need for such trouble.” Wynter glanced around while noting the numerous surveillance

cameras. She decided to walk In openly since entering discreetly was impossible. “I’ll call my great uncle myself.”

The security guard quickly relented when he realized that letting Ms. Quinnell make that call would surely cost him his job. “No need for that! Please go ahead, I’ll open the gate right away!”

The security guard pressed the button of the gate. The taxi drove through while the driver was still stunned. “Young lady, so you’re a relative of the owner here? Who are we following then?”

“Spies,” Wynter replied casually.

The driver chuckled. “You have quite the sense of humor.” Wynter smiled faintly but said nothing.

Whitley suddenly grabbed onto Wynter’s wrist. “Something’s off about that house.”

Wynther didn’t ask what he meant because she had noticed it too. She had checked this place before and found nothing unusual. But why was there an aura of resentment absorbing the Earth’s energy now?

This great uncle of hers would really do anything for his own gain.

The taxi driver looked around. “Off? What’s off about the house? It looks grand and magnificent.”

Wynter’s presence could neither be hidden nor could it be stopped. Her timing coincided with Declan being in the back garden, leaving only Liam in the front yard.

Liam had no idea how difficult it would be to deal with Wynter, who Declan spoke of so casually. Just because Declan could anticipate certain things didn’t mean his butler could as well.

Liam’s mind was filled with the idea of preventing Wynter from reaching the back garden. “Ms. Quinnell, what brings you here?” Liam eigned joy.

Wynter glanced at him and answered with a casual tone, “I came to see great uncle. I heard that some shareholders often come here for tea. I’m here to seek his advice as the company has been facing some difficulties recently.”

Liam’s eyes flashed with disdain as Wynter seemed no different from her father. They knew nothing and always turned to Declan for help.

Liam thought that the praises online must have been exaggerated. The company’s recent improvements surely weren’t Wynter’s doing. It had to be the people behind the scenes.

“Mr. Quinnell is already asleep at this hour,” Liam said pompously while glancing at his watch. “Ms. Quinnell, Mr. Quinnell has been having headaches lately. Perhaps you could come back tomorrow?”

Wynter raised an eyebrow. “Great uncle isn’t feeling well? Perfect timing: I studied medicine. I can take a

look at him.”

Liam clenched his fists and felt speechless. He thought to himself that Wynter was a hick for not understanding basic etiquette and hints.

“Ms. Quinnell, that might not be appropr-

Before Liam could finish his sentence, a deep chuckle interrupted him.

“Wynter, is something wrong? Why do you need to see me so urgently?” It was Declan. He had just reached the back garden when he received the news that Wynter had come.

Declan had thought that Liam would be able to keep Wynter outside the villa, but she had somehow already made it inside.

Wynter turned her gaze to Declan. “The company’s matters are beyond me. Grandpa was so stubborn and

we just got into an argument.

“He said I didn’t understand anything, so I ran away from home. I was planning to head back to Southdale with my friend, but I saw this place and thought I’d stop by to see you.”

Wynter’s lies flowed effortlessly. Even Whitley was momentarily speechless after hearing it. Liam nodded slighty, as if validating Wynter’s story.
