The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 310

Chapter 310 Despicable Duo

Lucas finally understood why Wynter had won over the hearts of those in Harmony Community.

She was young and insightful, not to mention driven and cool-headed. He looked forward to hearing about her legendary feats in Kingbourne.

However, some things prevented them from getting a clear picture,

and it would take time to uncover them all.

Meanwhile, over at the Quinnells’ residence in Kingbourne, Naomi once again found herself barred from entering the house.

She was holding a thermos flask containing hot soup, and she looked visibly upset as she demanded, “Alexis, I’ve brought tonic for Grandpa, and it’s supposed to be good for him. The doctors watched me make it, and they would have stopped me if they thought it would be bad for

Grandpa.”

“I’m sorry, Ms. Naomi,” Alexis said indifferently. “But Mr. Quinnell Senior’s condition is unpredictable and can quickly go from good to

bad. We have been advised by the specialist to monitor his diet

closely and do away with any risky tonics.”

Naomi tightened her grip on the thermos flask. Tears welled up in her eyes as she objected, “Alexis, listen to yourself! What do you even mean by ‘risky tonics”?”

“There, there, Ms. Naomi,” Fiona comforted soothingly.

She glared at Alexis and added angrily, “What does a secretary know about tonics anyway? I see no reason why Mr. Quinnell Senior’s

granddaughter has to be subject to such scrutiny when she’s delivering food to him!

“Ms. Naomi scalded herself while preparing that tonic, and you’re just

going to let her efforts go to waste?”

Naomi chewed on her l*p, looking wounded.

Fiona bristled and snapped at Alexis, “I’ve been working for the Quinnells for 20 years, and never have I heard anything so ridiculous!

Move!”

However, Alexis did not budge from the door.

Grimacing, Fiona threatened, “Do you want Mr. Quinnell to hear of this and demote you when he gets back?”

“I’m Mr. Quinnell Senior’s personal secretary, so my position is not under Mr. Quinnell’s purview,” Alexis answered pleasantly with a smile

as he adjusted his glasses.

The more unfazed he was, the angrier Fiona got. If Naomi wasn’t allowed entry into the house, it would mean the Quinnells didn’t recognize her as one of their own. In other words, Fabian’s refusal to see her was a form of humiliation.

Unable to comprehend the old man’s thoughts, Fiona grabbed Naomi

by the elbow and attempted to storm past Alexis.

However, Naomi still had her wits about her. She knew that if she

were to barge into the house, she had as good as acknowledged that

the Quinnells wanted nothing to do with her.
