The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 286

Chapter 286 A Grandfather’s Concerns

Amused by Wynter’s concerns, Fabian burst out laughing and beckoned her over. “Come here, Wynter. Look at what I prepared for you! Your favorite cinnamon rolls from when you were little!

“As for your brothers, they’re tough and have their own careers. Besides, they were ecstatic when they heard you’ve been found. If they have any pride at all, they won’t go after anything that belongs to

you.”

“What Mr. Quinnell said is true. I can vouch for it,” Alexis chimed in suitably. “Now that Mr. Elliot is awake, he insists on seeing Ms. Quinnell in person. He would have pulled the IV needle out of his arm if the doctor hadn’t stopped him.”

Fabian nodded. “Elliot would have it no other way than for you to have the company, Wynter. He always loved giving you piggyback rides when you were kids. As for Tobias, he’s been taking on more movie roles to make up a hefty dowry for you.”

“Grandpa,” Wynter began as she handed Fabian a glass of warm water. “We can save this for some other time. Your health is more important than anything else right now. It’s time to take your

medicine.”

Fabian was more than happy to take his medicine now that Wynter was the one feeding it to him. She was thoughtful enough to bring

him candy afterward too.

She also took the time to make lunch. She had made two portions- one for Fabian, and one for a certain beautiful patient of hers.

Chap 286 A Grandfathers Concerns

Fabian never thought he would one day loathe to see Dalton,

considering all the time he had spent lauding the young man with praise. In all fairness, he had thought Dalton was very well-

accomplished.

But that was no longer the case. Dalton was an eyesore to him now.

“If you’re here, then who’s running your company?” Fabian asked

pointedly, making it clear that Dalton was not welcome here.

Dalton took out his Bluetooth earpiece and answered politely, “Don’t

worry, Grandpa, I’ve got a bunch of managers at the company who are

more than capable of handling things in my absence.”

He had even dropped all formalities and addressed Fabian as

Grandpa”!

Fabian glowered at Dalton and set a black chess piece down forcefully. “I distinctly remember someone telling me that his poor health would hinder a young lady’s bright future. He told me that it’s probably in my little princess’ best interests that he didn’t choose her.”

“Well, Wynter’s been taking good care of me these days.” Dalton’s smile did not falter, and he looked unfazed in his immaculate suit as he picked up a white chess piece. “I’m feeling much better now.”

Fabian’s eyes widened at the young man’s obvious bragging.

Wynter stumbled upon this scene just as she returned with her stethoscope.

She recalled Fabian being friendlier to Dalton during their previous chess games. But now, the former appeared to be harboring some grudge against the latter.
