The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1126

The market share in Hawford was limited. The Quinnell family's entry would inevitably take a portion of it.

Moreover, Marie's greatest wish was to reconcile with the Whitmans.

Wynter's visit to Hawford would surely bring a sense of crisis, with people likely sowing discord.

After voicing these concerns, Phil added, "Indeed, as you suspect, there's more to it, Ms. Quinnell. But outsiders will latch onto this and continuously feed information to the Whitmans."

Phil poured coffee for everyone. "Mr. Reuben was famously devoted to his daughter. When Mrs. Quinnell agreed to the marriage, the Whitmans didn't have much to say about it.

"At that time, Mr. Shane offered shares to reassure the Whitmans. Later, as you know, the Quinnell family's shares were diluted. Mrs. Quinnell fell ill after you were kidnapped.

"The Whitmans came numerous times, especially Mrs. Quinnell's brothers, Mr. Cedric and Mr. Marlon. They were desperate to bring her back.

"Mrs. Quinnell's grandmother, Madam Aleena Morrow, adored her and found it unbearable to see her suffer."

"Everyone thought Mrs. Quinnell would go back with Madam Morrow, but she refused and told them not to come again, saying she was married and belonged here.

"Mrs. Quinnell fainted upon hearing the news. After that, her condition worsened, and she was sent abroad for treatment."

Phil said with a sigh, "This incident is a deep pain for Mrs. Quinnell and a significant concern for the Whitmans.
