Chapter 319 The Real Ms. Quinnell
Sean nodded. “I don’t think anyone could take such sudden news with
an open mind.”
“Chad,” Logan began, “Naomi is just an orphan sponsored by the
Quinnells. Are they obligated to adopt all the orphans they’ve sponsored then? She should leave now that the Quinnells have found their long-lost daughter.”
“Shut up,” Chad hissed angrily.
Sean quickly tried to placate both of his friends. “I am curious as to
why the Quinnells didn’t say a word about this. You don’t think the news of their daughter being found is fake, do you?”
“As if they’d let anyone know that their daughter was found in the mountains. I heard she’s illiterate,” Chad said contemptuously,
though he remained straight-faced.
“We don’t know what she looks like, but I bet the Quinnells must want
her to go through etiquette lessons before they announce her return
to make her debut easier.”
Sean rubbed his jaw thoughtfully. “She’s the polar opposite of Naomi.”
Chad sneered, “There’s no competition. Naomi’s in an entirely
different league.”
“Chad, I don’t think the Quinnells care whether the young lady is well- cultured or not as long as she’s their biological daughter,” Logan interjected exasperatedly. “Tobias even said that he never thought of Naomi as a sister anyway.”

Sean gasped. “He said that? Outright?”
Logan kept his hands on the steering wheel as he shook his head.”
Yeah, it was during a dinner party or something. He got all angry.
when someone told him his sister had arrived.
“He said Naomi wasn’t his sister and that his real sister was still
missing. Nobody had the guts to argue with him. You guys know what Tobias is like when he’s angry.”
Chad was silent after hearing this. A moment later, he said, “Tobias
doesn’t speak for the Quinnells. Mr. Quinnell does.”
Logan didn’t bother arguing with Chad and simply dismissed the
latter’s statement as one made by a lovesick fool. After all, one would
have to be foolish indeed to meddle with the Quinnells’ private affairs.
He would have stayed out of this if he were Chad, lest Tobias decide
to beat him up for interfering.
The Quinnell brothers were formidable characters, and one had to
tread carefully around them. At any rate, none of them had ever seen
Naomi as a sister.
Logan couldn’t help wondering when the public had simply treated
Naomi as the Quinnells’ adopted daughter. It was odd how that
became a commonly accepted fact, and Chad’s infatuation with
Naomi was odder still.
Wynter, on the other hand, had no idea that she was already being
talked about in the upper-crust society despite having yet to make her
debut.
Meanwhile, Alexis was waiting anxiously outside the Quinnell
Chupp 319 The Real Ms. Quirinell
residence. The last thing he expected was for Wynter, the Quinnell’s
heiress, to show up on a motorbike.
However, it made her incognito. No one even noticed her arrival
except for Alexis, whose eyes lit up as he immediately went up to
greet her.
Wynter wasted no time on niceties as she pulled off her helmet and demanded, “Where’s Grandpa?”
“In the study. He hasn’t moved or eaten anything since the phone call
with you, and he insists on waiting for you for dinner,” Alexis
answered.
He glanced at the men standing behind him. “Go and park Ms.
Quinnell’s motorbike.”
The men couldn’t hide their shock as they stammered, “R- Right away!”
They couldn’t believe that the young lady speaking to Alexis was the Quinnells’ long-lost heiress. She was nothing like what they imagined.
Wynter looked as if she could command the attention of a room. Her face was a work of art, and with her long hair and mile-long legs, she
was a vision.
Even her motorbike was an impressive BMW Tomahawk. It took guts
and a lot of confidence for a young woman to ride a bike like that. She was not the bumpkin the rumors made her out to be.
The bodyguards and housekeeping staff at the Quinnell residence were all stunned by her beauty and presence. The older staff tried to get a better look at her under the lights.
“She looks a lot like a certain someone,” one of them mused.

“Who?” another asked.
“Who else? She bears a strong resemblance to a young Mrs. Quinnell
Senior.”
The Quinnells owed their current prestige to Fabian’s wife, Harriet
Danes, who hailed from a powerful family and had a knack for keeping the Quinnells’ family affairs in order.
Her formidability rivaled that of the Yarwoods’ patriarch, and they
were in a league of their own. No one in Kingbourne’s upper-crust
society had been able to match their status.
The Quinnells’ household staff never thought they would meet
someone who resembled Harriet so strongly.
They used to think Naomi looked a lot like the family’s long-lost
heiress. But now, they were even more surprised to find that the long-
lost heiress had grown up to look like Harriet.
