The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1245

"It seems that I've become a burden to my sons," Reuben asserted. His words left Taylor stunned.

Taylor hurriedly assured, "Why would you say that? You're not a burden at all! Fine, I'll turn down the Wrays' offer and find some other experts to treat you."

"Good. That way, I can tell your great-grandpa I didn't mess up." Reuben nodded with a smile. However, Taylor wore a somber face as he observed his father's frail and weakened state.

Raising his head, Reuben narrated, "Regarding the Quinnells, I stand by my words—don't let personal grudges sway your vote.

"Back then, Mr. Gordon single-handedly established the Chamber of Commerce with Grandpa Kieran's support.

"They were close like brothers. During the national crisis, they constantly risked their lives to handle negotiations. In particular, Mr. Gordon lashed out at the Foplyan businessmen to save Grandpa Kieran in those critical moments.

"Instead of submitting to the foreigners' oppression, Mr. Gordon provided thousands of Cascadians with nourishing food and worthy jobs. The Chamber of Commerce only came into existence because of his dedication."

Turning to Taylor with a stern gaze, Reuben continued, "Sevie is coming back to reclaim what rightfully belongs to the Quinnells. As her uncles, you can choose not to help her, but you cannot hinder her."

Taylor was surprised to hear the familiar name. Marie was still recuperating after Wynter's birth, yet the baby had won both Reuben's and Isabella's hearts.

Worried that Wynter might be hungry, Isabella stayed at the Quinnell residence to look after her granddaughter.

In Taylor's memories, Wynter was a child with round, sparkling eyes and a smooth, rosy complexion. She wore a tiger-head hat and sucked on her pacifier.

Upon noticing the Whitmans, she would light up with a radiant smile and stretch out her tiny arms, eager to be held.
