The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Meeting The Family? 

‘Don’t say too much,” Dalton whispered, still looking incredibly handsome

Margaret wheeled herself closer and said to Dalton and the others, It’s the first time Wynter has brought friends to the medicine store. You kids have fun

There’s tea in the courtyard. Drink it up to help with digestion. I’ll go out and buy some shrimp to cook for you.” 

Margaret had a keen eye for people. She knew this young man was not an ordinary person and might not really be a friend of Wynter’s. But seeing her granddaughter bring someone 

home made her happy

In the past, Wynter didn’t like this medicine store. She used to say that staying here made her smell like herbs. Her classmates would tease her. So, she wouldn’t stay for meals

Wynter used to visit Margaret secretly, not wanting others to know. She was afraid that she would get a lecture from Wanda when she returned home

Margaret understood that even though she had raised Wynter, she would naturally feel closer to her mother. And Wanda wasn’t likely to speak well of Margaret in front of Wynter

Margaret was aware of all this

Later, as Wynter grew up, her visits became less frequent. Sometimes, only once in six 

months. She always said she was too busy

But three months ago, after Wynter had an accident and hurt her head, things changed. Not only did her personality seem different, but she also helped renovate the medicine store

Margaret was content with how things were. She never expected Wynter to follow in her footsteps and take over her job. She had raised Wynter and knew her granddaughter didn’t really have the knack for it

She just wanted Wynter to have more friends. The people they used to know were all about status. Once Wynter was out of their circle, they disappeared like they were never friends

These young men seemed nice. At least they were still hanging out with Wynter

Margaret was too friendly. Even Ethan couldn’t keep a stern face. He just looked at Dalton

But Dalton had a sensitive stomach. Hence, he couldn’t risk eating food outside. If anything 

went wrong, Ethan’s job was on the line

But then Dr. Genius smiled too. “Grandma, they all want to eat. Please buy more. And get a pumpkin. I want to make porridge.”

Dr. Genius, don’tEthan tried to refuse.

But Dalton interrupted, “We’ll bother you then, ma’am.” 

He looked at Margaret with a faint smile, showing impeccable manners. Let Ethan 

you. He can help carry things.” 

Margaret refused. No need. You kids chat. I need to move around a bit.” 

Ethan wanted to speak up, but he couldn’t find the words

go with 

Wynter smiled. Grandma and Susan Perry go to the market together every day. You don’t need to go.” 

Exactly, us old folks have our friendships too,Margaret said as she picked up an eco- 

friendly plastic bag

She muttered to herself, It’s just that Wolf isn’t here to boil the water. He’s been gone since yesterday, probably off picking mushrooms on some hill again.”
