Chapter 305 Sycophantic Behavior
Wynter stared at lan’s back as he walked away, a smile curling on her
l*ps.
She had been wondering about the mastermind behind Havenlight County’s human trafficking syndicate. After all, someone had to be pulling strings with the authorities if things like DNA tests and birth certificates for the abducted children could be forged.
The forgery had been so well done that even the government database reflected those records. It made it hard for parents to track down their missing children. The more they investigated, the more they felt like they were running a fool’s errand.
The Scott family from Kingbourne fit the profile perfectly. Wynter narrowed her eyes as she contemplated the possibility.
lan thought of his encounter with Wynter as an unhappy exchange
with an ignorant peasant.
The Scotts had been on the top of the social food chain for a long
time. They could easily manipulate the lives of those far beneath
them with a snap of their fingers. With such power, the Scotts never thought of Wynter as a threat.
lan had no idea that Lucas had managed to uncover the dirty secrets
of Paradise Village because of a seemingly ordinary young lady like
Wynter.
All the Scotts knew about Lucas’ relationship with Wynter was that they had met by coincidence. But little did the Scotts know, that was
exactly what Wynter wanted them and the public to think.
The only reason why the Quinnells had such a hard time tracking Wynter down was because her identity was kept top secret. Even Lucas had no clearance to access information on Wynter, let alone
the Scotts.
When the award ceremony ended, Lucas walked up to Wynter unabashedly and said, “Come on, Wynter. Thanks to you, I’ll get to
dine with our mentor.”
If lan hadn’t left early for Kingbourne, he wouldn’t have missed such.
