The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call ( Wynter Quinnell )
Chapter 648 The Tides Have Changed

Chapter 648 The Tides Have Changed 

No one would know who he was as he had been changing identities throughout the years. Therefore, he didn’t need to be afraid of anything going wrong. 

He held the lamp and went back to his study. Looking up, he glanced at the butler standing outside. 

“What happened?” The old man’s voice was hoarse, and his hands were skinny and wrinkly. 

It was clear that his butler was afraid of him. 

“The scion was worried about you. He wanted to check in on you, but I was afraid he would see something he wasn’t supposed to. So, I made some noise for you on purpose.” 

The old man looked at him before pushing the ink pot back. His action allowed him to see his reflection in 

the mirror. 

His skin was loose and wrinkly while his figure was hunched. Even his eyes betrayed his age. 

Suddenly, he raised his cane to smash the mirror. 

“Go and call the Scotts. Ask them when they can give me what I want.” 

The butler didn’t even dare to glance at the old man’s shadow. He lowered his head and said respectfully, “Yes, sir!” 

The old man’s shadow did not look human. 

“Soon. We’ll be able to reform ourselves very soon,” the old man said to himself. 

Things would not have been so complicated if the Scott family hadn’t lost the resentful infant. 

Who on Earth was out there ruining his plans? It couldn’t be Darrell since he was too useless for that sort 

of thing. 

The old man was still deep in thought, wondering who could have been behind those things. 

Many possibilities flashed through his mind, so he decided to replace an opportunity to test Kaspar. He wasn’t afraid of the dangers as he had hidden himself well. 

More than 100 years had passed, yet no one had found his secret. He began to fiddle with his bracelet, while the shadow became even more distorted. 

The butler walked out of the villa and felt his knees go weak. He didn’t dare to go against his employer’s 

wishes. 

Unexpectedly, the butler was shocked to replace that someone was still there. He paused momentarily 

before greeting him. “Sir.” 

The batler frowned as he wondered how much he had seen. 

Luckily, the other party seemed oblivious to the butler’s suspicion. “Does Grandpa have a guest with him?” 

“Oh, he doesn’t have a guest. He just needs to deal with a few things from the company, the butler said while observing the other party’s expression. 

The butler sighed in relief after noticing that the man didn’t suspect a thing. 

It was already dark outside when the Scott family received a call. 

Peter’s expression was tensed as he said, “We’re in, a tough situation. The authorities are investigating us 

while Mr. Keller is watching us closely because of the incident in Southdale. 

“It’s hard for us to do anything. Just appease him and hold him off for now. Or, he can try another way.” 

Peter had never talked to someone in such a humble tone before. It was evident how strong his fear of 

the other party was. 

Cooperations between aristocratic families were usually done in secret. They were already accustomed to being on top of society due to the certain privileges they received. 

Most of the conditions within their cooperation clauses were attractive. They often offered things like money, power, and fate as rewards. 

The Scott family had always been ambitious. That was why they had taken so much effort to plan such a 

trap. 

By overtaking the Kellers family, they would take over their entire network. 

However, everything had been ruined by a young lady. 

At first, Peter wanted to figure out Wynter’s background, but he couldn’t help but frown as he read throught 

the report. 

Wynter was the bumpkin that the Quinnells had brought back. She was the Quinnell family’s young lady! 

Learning this, the Scott family couldn’t do anything to her. They didn’t even have time to fend for 

themselves. 

Dalton had attacked them and destroyed the foundation of their family’s business. Most of the Scotts. were currently under investigation. 

Peter felt mentally and physically exhausted. 

However, Yvette remained oblivious to their condition. She believed she was still wealthier than ever as 

she brought a bunch of supplements to Margaret’s place.
