Chapter 1117
1117 Meeting the Others
Wynter didn’t notice the subtle changes in Whitley’s expression.
There was too much information to process, and she needed time to sort through it all. Logan being possessed didn’t surprise her, but Alijah’s behavior did.
“Tobias, get in touch with Austin. Tell him you want to take me to the Fenton residence as a guest,” Wynter instructed.
Logan immediately understood Wynter’s intention. He lowered his head, seemingly composed but clearly hiding something.
“Now? Or tonight?” he asked.
Wynter preferred to go now, but seeing Logan’s hesitation, she conceded, “Tonight is fine.”
Tobias, interpreting Logan’s hesitation as lingering fear, said, “Phil, please bring Logan to rest.”
Phil brought over some tea. “Mr. Tobias, rest assured that Mr. Logan’s room is ready. It’s right next to yours.”
Then, Phil turned to Wynter and said, ‘Ms. Quinnell, you’ve been busy all day. Have some tea.
“I’ve had the kitchen prepare some bacon, kept warm for you. You can eat before heading to the Fentons. There’s no rush. I’ll handle the arrangements.
“Mr. Quinnell Senior mentioned that I should take you around to meet the prominent families. You’ve been in town for a while now, so it’s time to get acquainted with everyone.
“After all, these are people you’ll be interacting with regularly in the future. You would also meet the people from the Quinnell family’s other businesses.
“Moreover, you saved Mr. Austin before. Mrs. Fenton has expressed her gratitude multiple times. We can use this as an opportunity.”
Wynter agreed without hesitation. “Let’s proceed with your plan, Phil.”
“Okay.” Phil smiled and signaled the kitchen staff to prepare a few more dishes. The housekeepers quickly set the table.
In the past, the Quinnell family meals usually consisted of Fabian dining alone. Shane was always busy, and the other Quinnells had their careers out of town. The house often felt empty.
But things changed after Wynter returned. The house became lively, transforming from a small table for one to a large round table for many.
The round table had always been there, but it was rarely filled, even during New Year’s dinners. Shane thought round tables looked unsophisticated compared to the long tables frequently used abroad.
Fabian cherished the idea of family unity, which Shane never understood. For him, prestige took precedence, and foreign customs were always superior.
Phil had always been pained by how Shane’s attitude hurt Fabian. It was bad enough that outsiders troubled him, but for the Quinnell family’s only son to do the same was incomprehensible to Phil.
Now that Shane was no longer around, the household thrived like never before, all thanks to Wynter.
Phil wasn’t interested in the external chaos. His priorities were simple-protecting Wynter and the Quinnell family. The rest had to fend for themselves.
His loyalty to the Quinnell family never wavered, even during the toughest years when he stood by the old master’s side.
With the Quinnell family’s fortunes on the rise, Phil had only one wish left-to see the Quinnells married with children. It was a modest wish, but one that meant everything to him.
Therefore, Phil took special care when attending to Dalton. Despite the other Quinnells’ apparent lack of warmth for Dalton, Phil remained diligent in his hospitality.
