The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1599

Those shouldering the burden of protection didn't seem to mind how the world viewed them. After all, they were more committed to nobler ideals.

Just as Anson had noted, the Lindens never anticipated anyone would come to help people like them without hesitation or expectation of rewards. If such individuals did exist, they could only be soldiers dedicated to safeguarding the citizens.

As the train to Kingbourne departed, Wynter remained seated in the black SUV. Her eyes were closed, as if she were asleep.

One of the men glanced her way and patted her shoulder. When she didn't respond, he whispered doubtfully, "Mr. Leblanc, I can't shake the feeling that this girl is different from the one we last saw. Do you think she might have motion sickness?"

Colby shared his suspicions. Clutching the photo in his hands, he glanced over and suggested, "Maybe it's because this is the second time we met. She's probably figured things out on her own.

"Our mission is to bring her to the designated location, and the rest isn't our concern. Once we deliver her, we'll get paid."

Little did the men know, Wynter had been carefully listening to their conversation whilst memorizing the route they took.

Although it felt like they had traveled a great distance, they had actually taken a few turns through the city before heading toward the outskirts. They even passed the highways several times, moving cautiously. It wasn't until they reached the villa area that the car finally slowed down.

To Wynter's surprise, she recognized the area all too well. After all, the Montclair and Wray families had once schemed to have her acquire a piece of land there.

Their destination turned out to be Valen Village, Hawford's inner city where Wynter and Cedric had visited in the past. The village was relatively close to the city itself, though Wynter hadn't expected a detour would lead her there.

Pretending to rub her eyes, Wynter replied, "Thank you, sir. I've thought things through and will definitely do my best in the interview. I need the money to treat Grandpa."

"We're glad to hear that. Don't worry, we've sent the money to your grandparents and will keep them informed," Colby assured her.

Throughout the drive, Colby had come across as thoughtful and kind. Even as people walked by, no one would find their interaction suspicious. Wynter silently stepped out of the car and followed the men inside.

The villa was spacious and capable of accommodating hundreds of visitors. On top of that, it presented the neat and polished ambiance expected in a professional workplace.
