Chapter 538 After all, Tobias was still young back then. There wasn't much he could share with her.
However, Alexis was different. He had been in the company for many years and would be privy to all the details of what had occurred. Even if he didn't, he would have noticed any unusual events.
As an outsider, he could offer an unbiased viewpoint, which was why Wynter decided to approach him first.
"Nobody expected Mrs. Quinnell to, turn out the way she did." Alexis sighed. "Mr. Quinnel and his father once had a fight because of this.

"However, Mr. Quinnell didn't want Mrs. Quinnell to continually relieve those painful memories, and he feared she might hurt someone again." Wynter raised an eyebrow at that. "Was it true that Mom hurt someone?" "Indeed." Alexis' brows furrowed. "It happened at a banquet. It was a normal day as usual.
"Even though Mrs. Quinnell was not in the best state, it was the first tshe had harmed someone. She just suddenly grabbed a child and nearly stabbed them in the eye.
Wynter's gaze darkened slightly. "It just happened without any warning?" "She seemed to have heard someone mention you.
Alexis continued as he looked at Wynter, "Ever since you were abducted, Mrs. Quinnell never stopped looking for you. But from that day on, no one dared mention you in front of her again." Wynter was deep in thought.
Alexis didn't usually speak so candidly. But, since he was speaking with the person he had acknowledged as the Quinnells' true heiress, he added his own speculations.
"If you're asking why Mr. Quinnell is so insistent on adopting Naomi, it actually has something to do with that incident.
"It was truly peculiar. No one was able to stop Mrs. Quinnell except Naomi. She even ended 2/2 up with a cut on her hand. It was because of her intervention that no lives were lost.
'Ssay that she managed to stop Mrs. Quinnell because Mrs. Quinnell saw you in her.
"There's talk around that Naomi bore a striking resemblance to you, and indeed it is true. She did resemble you greatly from your younger days.

"Normally, a person's features are defined as they grow older. However, she looks more like the innocent version of you." Alexis' gaze shifted. "It's all too coincidental.
"I'm not too sure what happened next. Only Mr. Quinnell would know why he's so insistent on adopting Naomi. The story he's putting out is that it's all for Mrs. Quinnell's sake."
Wynter smirked at that. Playing with her purple sugilite pendant, she said, "From your tone it seems like you don't exactly hold my father in high regard. Aren't you afraid I would tell on you?"
"I know you don't like him, Ms. Sevie." Alexis respectfully served Wynter a cup of tea. "I'm the type to remain loyal to an employer I respect. I see no need in concealing what I know about matters you aren't fond of." Wynter appreciated his straightforwardness and went straight to the point. “In that case, I have another question for you.
"Regarding the hotel's layout. How much was my father involved? Did he really not know, about the basement? "Also, he was the only one who visited Grandpa before Grandpa's condition deteriorated Did he not try anything then?"
