The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1433

Chapter 1433 Humans Are Selfish Beings 

Tamia removed Cyrus hand. “What’s going on with you? Do you think we could make decisions for the Whitman family if your father didn’t agree? I know you Have a kind heart, but business is far more complicated than you realize. 

“You’re actually giving your cousin a wake–up call by pulling out the investment. A young girl like her should be focusing on her studies, not playing grownup by buying land and trading stocks. It’s a bottomless pit. How much wealth do you think it would take to fill It? 

“Cyrus, my dear grandson, listen to me. Don’t follow your cousin in this reckless venture. Are you really willing to let a moment of loyalty cause your mom, dad, and I so much worry?” 

Guilt–tripping family members seemed to come naturally to Tamia. 

also urging him 

Cyrus went still as soon as Tamia finished speaking. He looked over at Ophella, who was also to stop. For the first time in his life, he felt as though he was truly seeing his family members for who they 

were 

All these years, they had taught him to always put family first, to remember the ties of kinship, and not to be like Reuben. 

They told him Reuben was too rigid and unyielding. He didn’t mind embarrassing others, and this led to his isolation in old age. 

But now, they were telling him not to act on impulse. This had nothing to do with loyalty or bonds. It was simply about protecting their interests, and they wanted him to be the one to betray Wynter. 

Cyrus didn’t fully believe Wynter when she predicted their reaction. He could never have imagined that the grandmother and mother he revered so much would act this way. 

Suddenly, it dawned on him that the grandfather he had always thought was too cold–hearted might have been the only one who truly cared about family. 

Cyrus remembered the times before he was sent abroad. Reuben would always ask him, “Do you really want to study abroad?” 

Cyrus had been fearful of him back then. He would always hesitate and say nothing in the end. 

Reuben had looked at him and took a deep breath. “You can go abroad, but not now. Wait until you’ve finished high school, with good grades, and been accepted into a prestigious university. 

“And definitely not when you can’t even master the basics or haven’t tried to work hard. I don’t agree with you being sent abroad this young.” 

At that time, Cyrus was barely a teenager. He had thought that Reuben was just an old–fashioned man trying to control his life and cause an uproar at home. 

In the end, Reuben sat in his chair. It wasn’t as if he had relented but rather as if he had given up. “Go if you want. Everyone has their own path.” 

Back then, Cyrus hadn’t understood what Reuben meant by “everyone has their own path“. Now, he did. His grandfather had been deeply disappointed in him, and rightfully so. 

Only by following Wynter had he realized how useless he had been. He was basically a hollow shell. 

His so–called friends were nothing more than pawns placed by the Wray family to sabotage him and the Whitman family. The Whitmans‘ decline wasn’t due to external factors but was because their eldest grandson, the supposed heir, had failed them!
