Chapter 637 The Truth About the Quinnell Family
Even Sebastian frowned. Was the legendary Dalton this shameless in the rumors?
Fabian, however, seemed to have figured it out.
From this banquet alone, it was evident that the Quinnell family had been declining over the years.
But the Yarwood family was different. With Dalton’s, support, Wynter’s later years could be much
smoother.
Once inside the study, Fabian gestured for Alexis to close the door. Then, he strolled over to the
bookshelf and moved one of the books.
With a click, the shelf shifted.
Tobias didn’t know there was a hidden compartment behind Fabian’s bookshelf.
Inside, there was a well–crafted leather chest. On the wall were some newspapers from the specialperiod, along with some documents and photos. Among these lay a well–preserved lucky coin.
When Wynter saw the coin, her gaze paused.
Fabian approached and picked up a family portrait from the shelf. “I’m not a dutiful son. I haven’tpassed on the Quinnell family to the next generation yet. Luckily, I have a granddaughter now.”

With that, he started explaining. “The Quinnell family didn’t start in Kingbourne. We have control over

“But those weren’t real schools. A Quinnell exposed their intentions. They claimed to be runningschools but were actually conducting human experiments on our Cascadian children. At the time, theYouth Daily and international papers all reported it.
“Your great–great–grandpa took the evidence to the negotiating table. He thought that the Foplyans,feeling guilty and fearful, would disappear from Cascadia.”
Fabian stroked the family photo. “But Cascadia was weak back then. We had no diplomatic power, sono

grandpa didn’t want to work for Foplya in exchange for me. He exchanged his own life for the Quinnell
family’s peace.
“Since then, all trading firms have been operating in secret. They served the Youth Daily and otherambitious individuals by providing resources and financial support.
“Your great–great–grandpa said Cascadia would have its own schools, and its future would be bright.He believed that day would come but didn’t live to see it.
“As a member of the Quinnell family, I’ve never revealed these trading firms until today.”
Fabian set down the photo. “Wynter, this is the truth about the Quinnell family. Get ready to take over.
Some things from the Quinnell family, even if kept hidden, must never fall into the wrong hands.”
Being a national businessman was never just a casual title.
Wynter looked at the elderly figure in the photo.
