Your favorite cinnamon rolls from when you were little! "As for your brothers, they're tough and have their own careers. Besides, they were ecstatic when they heard you've been found. If they have any pride at all, they won't go after anything that belongs to you." "What Mr. Quinnell said is true. I can vouch for it," Alexis chimed in suitably. "Now that Mr. Elliot is awake, he insists on seeing Ms. Quinnell in person. He would have pulled the IV needle out of his arm if the doctor hadn't stopped him." Fabian nodded. "Elliot would have it no other way than for you to have the company, Wynter. He always loved giving you piggyback rides when you were kids. As for Tobias, he's been taking on more movie roles to make up a hefty dowry for you." "Grandpa," Wynter began as she handed Fabian a glass of warm water. "We can save this for sother time. Your health is more important than anything else right now. It's tto take your medicine." Fabian was more than happy to take his medicine now that Wynter was the one feeding it to him.

But that was no longer the case. Dalton was an eyesore to him now.

"If you're here, then who's running your company?" Fabian asked pointedly, making it clear that Dalton was not welchere.

Dalton took out his Bluetooth earpiece and answered politely, "Don't worry, Grandpa, I've got a bunch of managers at the company who are more than capable of handling things in my absence." He had even dropped all formalities and addressed Fabian as Grandpa"! Fabian glowered at Dalton and set a black chess piece down forcefully. "I distinctly remember someone tellingthat his poor health would hinder a young lady's bright future. He toldthat it's probably in my little princess' best interests that he didn't choose her." "Well, Wynter's been taking good care ofthese days." Dalton's smile did not falter, and he looked unfazed in his immaculate suit as he picked up a white chess piece. "I'm feeling much better now." Fabian's eyes widened at the young man's obvious bragging.

Wynter stumbled upon this scene just as she returned with her stethoscope.

She recalled Fabian being friendlier to Dalton during their previous chess games. But now, the former appeared to be harboring sgrudge against the latter.

He moved another chess piece and said to Dalton, “I'll be handing Quinnell Corporation to Wynter once we return to Kingbourne. I don't want to hear anyone saying Wynter isn't good enough for you, considering you've turned down a marriage alliance with our family once." This was a warning to Dalton and a reminder that the Yarwoods had better prepare to welcWynter into their lives.

Dalton squared his shoulders and said solemnly, "I promise I'll protect Wynter at all costs, Grandpa. Don't worry, I've never been one to go easy on gossipmongers." It was only after hearing this that Fabian was appeased. "Your grandfather..." Dalton said, "My grandfather has already met her. He likes her a lot,

Fabian laughed wholeheartedly.

"Your grandfather has good om judgment. Lought to have a drink with him when I go back to Kingbourne." "He would be delighted." Dalton smiled. Despite his penchant for dark humor, he tried his best to win Fabian over.

He hadn't realized that Wynter had raised her brow in amusement when she heard what he said.
