Chapter 1133

1133 Done With the Laison Family
1133 Done With the Larson Family
As Wynter said that, Kendrick’s smiling face turned pale in an instant.
His previous disdain toward Wynter and his sole interest in currying favor with Dalton had vanished. His eyes betrayed a hint of panic as he glanced downward, feigning calm while taking a sip of tea.
“These are all just rumors. How could you believe such things, Wynter?“,
“Rumors?” Wynter casually toyed with her teacup.
Her words cut through with an eerie nonchalance that sent shivers down the spine.
“Are the stories about construction workers not getting their pay after toiling all year and those driven to suicide by your debt collection also just rumors, Mr. Larson?
“If you want to keep something secret, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place. I know what projects you consider favorable.”
This wasn’t just a warning shot. It was a clear signal that she was going after the Larson family.
Yet, Sara couldn’t grasp the meaning behind Wynter’s words. She only saw Wynter as a junior to Kendrick, yet here she was, making a show of authority at their house.
“It’s only right for debts to be repaid. Those poor people ooze poverty from their very bones.
“When we lend them money, it’s an act of benevolence. Those deadbeats not only fail to repay their debts but also end up jumping off buildings.
“We’ve already lost the money, and now we have to endure baseless slander from you? Wynter, remember, this is the Larson residence, not the Quinnell residence.”
Sara sneered. “If you don’t want to work with us in the future, then don’t come around. You Quinnells might be richer than us, but we don’t depend on you for our meals.”
Kendrick’s hands trembled at her words. “Wynter, Sara doesn’t mean that. She doesn’t understand the ins and outs of business dealings. I’ve already arranged for compensation for the family of the deceased.
Right, Tyson?”
Tyson Tanner, the butler, responded, “Yes, Mr. Larson, everything has been arranged. Ms. Quinnell, if you could-”
Wynter’s gaze remained indifferent. “I know about the arrangements. The Larson family hired a few thugs to harass the girl’s family every day.
“Yes, you did give them compensation, but is 50 thousand dollars enough compensation for a life, Mr.
Larson?”
She didn’t bother to pretend to be respectful anymore.
Kendrick never expected her to be so well–informed about these trivial matters.

“I–I’m sure it was an oversight by my men. How could they have given only 50 thousand dollars when someone died? There must be someone embezzling in the middle. I’ll call them right away.”
Kendrick still wanted to distance himself from the issue.
Sara, however, didn’t understand why Kendrick was suddenly so afraid of Wynter.
After all, it was just a rural worker who had died in the city. Moreover, it was his own fault for borrowing money from their family and committing suicide. What did it have to do with them?
“Dad, we did nothing wrong. We gave them 50 thousand dollars. What more do they want?”
Kendrick wanted to slap Sara’s mouth shut right now.
Suddenly, Wynter smiled and said somewhat fiercely, “You’ve certainly handled your business well, Mr.
Larson.
“Bringing in workers to labor without pay and turning legal advances into loans. I wonder who’s behind the Larson family.”
Wynter lowered her voice as she added, “Whoever it is, rest assured, they’ll be joining you in jail.”
With that said, Wynter waved her hand and casually threw the teacup on the ground, then straightened up
and walked away.
“I’m done with this visit. Next stop.”
Sara, in her high heels, followed behind Wynter. Gnashing her teeth, she tried to catch up. “Who do you think you are to treat us like this? Just you wait!”
But the Quinnell family’s and Yarwood family’s bodyguards were not to be trifled with. They immediately stopped her.
