Chapter 292 Return to Kingbourne
Fabian originally thought it might take longer to persuade Wynter to
go back to Kingbourne with him, so he was surprised when she
readily agreed to it.
This made Fabian even more excited about returning to Kingbourne.
Wynter packed his medication and told him her plans. “Grandpa, I won’t be going back with you this time. I’ll have to tell Grandma that we’re moving to Kingbourne. I’ll see you then.”

“All right, but remember, I’m always here if you need me,” Elliot said. He recalled how she had rescued him from the cellar the other day. Judging by her swift maneuver, he figured she must have been bullied to pick up those skills.
