The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1566

"Yeah, he's right," the rest of the thugs echoed, the agreements sounding forced and insincere. In reality, they were just eager to leave as quickly as possible.

However, Wynter wasn't about to let them go so easily. Since they had been probing her, she decided to return the favor. Casually, she asked, "Oh? Does the Wray family owe your company money? Which company might that be?"

Colby hadn't expected such a question. He paused for a moment before quickly replying, "Our company is small. It's not worth mentioning and is certainly nothing compared to yours."

"Are you truly sponsoring students despite being a small company? Quite admirable," Wynter remarked with a faint hint of praise.

The compliment sent shivers down Colby's spine. "It's all thanks to our investor. He doesn't just fund us, but he invests in many companies, too. He's from a small town and is just trying to help students get better education opportunities."

"How kind of him. We should meet up sometime." Wynter then added casually, "Since we were so fated to meet each other, how about exchanging contacts?"

Colby was taken aback. "Huh?" His face clearly showed that he thought he had misheard.

Wynter chuckled. "What's the matter? Am I not good enough?"

At this point, Colby knew that refusing would only make things worse. Reluctantly, he pulled out his phone and added her number.

Only someone like Wynter could turn the tables like this. She managed to turn these men into her "buddies", trapping them in a corner with no way out and making them squirm.

"Alright, that's settled. I'll be taking this young lady with me now," Wynter said casually after they exchanged contacts.

With a confident wave, she walked away, leaving the group of men utterly bewildered by the whirlwind that had just hit them.

"What do we do now, Mr. Leblanc?" one of the men asked Colby.

Colby exhaled slowly. "We'll head back. You can't simply mess with people from the Quinnell family."

They knew it wouldn't be easy to deal with the Quinnell family, especially Wynter. They had no idea what she was really thinking!

As Eliana spoke, uncertainty crept into her voice. "I tried messaging her a few times, but she never responded. When I tried calling, her phone was always off.

"But a while back, she sent me a voice message, warning me to not apply for the scholarship. She was about to explain why when she suddenly stopped speaking. Then, she stopped replying altogether."

Wynter sipped her milk tea, her mind beginning to piece things together.

Suddenly, Eliana grabbed Wynter's arm in a panic, as if she had remembered something. "The scholarships are funded by a sponsorship committee. Most of the students in our school are neglected children.

"When the principal told me to meet the committee's leaders, I didn't think much of it because I really needed that money. I completely forgot about the message Penelope sent me."

Wynter asked her to take her phone out and show her the chat with Penelope.

After examining it for a moment, Wynter made a quick call. "I will give you a phone number, and I need you to trace this phone's current IP location."
