The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 784

Chapter 784 Not What It Looks Like 

Shane called Jolene hurriedly. At that moment, Jolene was trying to find an opportunity to get closer to 

Albert. 

According to the news she had received when she had been abroad, Albert was supposedly very different 

from how he had been as a teen. 

His mother had always been sick, so she hadn’t been able to take proper care of him. The family had also ignored him because he was the eldest. On top of that, his grandfather had always put pressure on him. 

Albert had always been lonely–even more so after Wynter had been kidnapped and the family descended 

into chaos. He had never been able to rid himself of that loneliness. 

Fabian’s decision to interfere in Jolene’s relationship with Albert had made it even more crucial for him to 

get therapy. 

That was what Jolene had thought. Yet, when she returned to the country and met Albert again, she realized that things were different from what she’d thought. 

No–it was worse than just being wrong. It felt more like there was a wall between her and Albert now. 

On one hand, there was Fabian. When he had found out that she had returned to be with Albert, he hadn’t objected to it at all. 

He had even said that he was not going to interfere with their relationship last time at the Quinnell 

residence. 

That had given Jolene no space to instigate Albert against Fabian or drive a wedge between them. Besides, she also wasn’t very confident that she could be in a lovey–dovey relationship with Albert like 

before. 

Albert never rejected her. He would occasionally get his secretary to send her clothes and bags. 

However, her instincts as a woman told her that he was behaving differently compared to the way he had 

acted years ago. 

For example, every time she called him, his secretary was the one who answered the call. In fact, that 

was what was happening at that moment, too. 

Jolene had seen Albert’s secretary before. Jolene did not like her at all because of her face! 

She could not understand why Albert would hire a female secretary. Why could he not have gotten a man 

Instead? 

“I’m sorry, Ms. Horton, but Mr. Quinnell is in a seminar right now. He has instructed me that he will not be available for calls unless they’re from his family.” 

The secretary sounded professional. Jolene could tell how busy she was because she was also replying to other people’s questions at the same time. 

Jolene was smart too; she did not insist on anything. She merely replied gently, “Okay, please tell Albert

that I’ll wait for him to return for dinner.” 

Then, she hung up before the secretary could respond. She had heard that the secretary was just a college graduate. She wondered how the secretary had gotten a job working for Albert.
