Chapter 541 No Dress to Wear Tomorrow
The twins’ and resentful infant’s appearance also proved that a medium was at work in this situation.
Wynter had met Darrell and could tell he lacked the power to stir up such a storm. However, he showed proficiency in spells.
It seemed like Wynter would have to make a trip to Mt. Dragon and figure out who among them were experts in the Arcane Way.
Meanwhile, somewhere within the Quinnell residence, Fabian was playing chess with a man. That man was older than Fabian and had graying hair. He wore a rosary bracelet around his wrist.
“How can you still have such a temper at your age? Can’t you be more reasonable? He’s still your son,
after all.”
“Please, I don’t want a son like him.”
Fabian took a sip of his tea. “Now that Sevie is back, I’m not even going to bother with him any longer. As long as he doesn’t go around adopting random people, he can do whatever he wants.”
The man chuckled as he shook his head. “You’re just saying that out of anger.”
“I’m not.” Fabian continued proudly, “You have no idea how capable Sevie is. I’m going to announce during the family reunion banquet that I’m handing over the company to her.”
That man didn’t appear surprised. “A few shareholders have already guessed it when you sent out the
invitation.”
“When the time comes, you’ll need to stand by my side.” Fabian grinned. “Just like the old days.”.
The man shrugged. “As an outsider, my words hold little weight in these matters.”
“Some board members still value your opinion, brother.”
The man smiled faintly. “I’ll give it a try. But are you really going to let Sevie manage the company? She’s still young. Will she be able to handle it?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Sevie will definitely impress those shareholders.”
The man set down his chess piece and sighed heavily. “That’s not the only thing I’m worried about. There are murmurs circulating within our social circle.
“If those of her generation refuse to accept her, we elders can hardly intervene. And it seems they’ve
already begun to take action.
“Announcing her takeover at the family reunion banquet is perhaps too hasty. I’m worried that a few of our business partners might get ideas.”
While Fabian’s temper flared at that, he didn’t plan on confronting anyone. He wasn’t someone with just a

quick temper seeing that he built such a large conglomerate.
He picked up a black chess piece and said, “I’ve already considered your concerns, but you should understand the Quinnells will make our own decisions in matters like these.”
As Fabian made his move on the chess board, he made up his mind to secure Wynter a worry-free future.
If he was honest, his decision was made with slightly selfish motives. If Sevie really wasn’t cut out for it, he wouldn’t have made plans this early.
He trusted in Wynter’s capabilities, believing she would bring major changes to the Quinnell Group.
Others might not have noticed, but Fabian was well aware the Quinnell Group had reached a bottleneck. And the way Wynter worked would bring new life into the Quinnell Corporation.
The man didn’t continue once he recognized that there was no use persuading Fabian any further.
Amidst the lingering scent of tea, the outcome of their chess match became increasingly evident.
In a well-known art district in Kingbourne, several wealthy young women were browsing through an art
exhibition, casually pointing at pieces they liked.
One of them chuckled. “My stylist has already gotten everything sorted out on my end. How about you
guys?”
“Don’t worry, she won’t have a dress to wear tomorrow.”
