Chapter 1157 Retrieving the Quinnell’s Holdings
At night, Fabian stood before the ancestral tablets at the Quinnell residence.
“Wynter is returning to Hawford, but it’s different this time. Many difficulties and obstacles await.
“Fallen leaves must return to their roots. What I couldn’t accomplish, Wynter will do for me. I humbly request my ancestors‘ protection and guidance.”
Due to the circumstances in the past, Fabian had moved their business from Hawford to Kingbourne.
At that time, he thought he could return anytime they wanted. Who would have known that 70 years would pass before he got the chance?
Both Fabian and Warren were sentimental individuals. Over the years, they had considered ways to return, but circumstances kept changing.
Each year brought new challenges, and the Hawford business circle became increasingly complex with the influx of foreign investments.
They couldn’t spare time from their commitments to leave Kingbourne, especially after Shane married Marie.
Fabian thought Shane would stay in Hawford, as he had promised the Whitman family. But he turned out to be completely unreliable.
Fabian’s lifelong wish was to return to Hawford with Warren once the Quinnell family was stable and everything was on the right track.
He thought his wish would be impossible in his lifetime. However, when Wynter and Albert proposed entering the Hawford business circle, Fabian was both worried and gratified.
“Mr. Quinnell Senior.” Warren stepped forward to support Fabian. “Everything in Hawford has been arranged. Some of the trading firms will be handed over to Ms.
Quinnell. But as you know, they might not listen to her.”
Fabian leaned on his dragon cane and glanced at the ancestral tablet once more.

“The Quinnells have been away from Hawford for too long. It’s natural for people to forget us. However, I believe that there are still some who remember us.
“Those who swore their loyalty to my grandfather will not let their descendants make things difficult for Wynter. The real worry is that some people might be unwilling to return what belongs to us.
“Once they hold power for too long, they will start thinking that it belongs to them.”
Fabian turned his gaze back to Warren. “Warren, make further arrangements. Above all, ensure Wynter’s safety.”
“Understood.”
Having worked with Fabian for so many years, Warren was more like a close friend than a servant.
“You don’t need to worry too much. As long as Ms. Quinnell can replace what Mr. Quinnell Senior left behind, those people will fall in line.”
Fabian wasn’t sure what Gordon might have left for Wynter. The Hawford businesses had been heavily infiltrated over the years.
As the head of the Quinnell family, he hoped Wynter could reclaim all of the Quinnell Group’s holdings. But as a grandfather, he cared more about his granddaughter’s and grandson’s safety.
Perhaps sensing Fabian’s concern, Albert spoke up before departing, “Rest assured that I will ensure Wynter’s safety. I have my methods when it comes to dealing with foreign enterprises.”
Fabian was aware of the accomplishments Albert had achieved in Winnow Street over the years.
However, Albert had never shown any intention of returning. In previous visits, he made it clear that he wanted to separate from the Quinnels‘ business ventures.
This time, Albert’s change of heart filled Fabian with warmth. He reached out and patted Albet’s shoulders. “You’ve grown up. I was too strict before.”
“I was immature.” Albert wa essed sharply in a suit. He spoke with intellect and

composure, “You were worried I might end up like my dad. Our personalities are very
similar, both somewhat arrogant.
“After returning and seeing Wynter, and learning about Grandpa Gordon’s life, 1 understand better the teachings you imparted to me in my youth. I went out, and it’s
now time to come back.”
Albert looked directly into Fabian’s eyes. “As a member of the Quinnell family, one can pursue ambitions, but the premise must be to serve the country.
“You wanted me to return not out of a desire to control, but because you hoped I
would apply what I have learned on our land.”
