Chapter 703 Protecting Grandpa Jolene could sense the attention everyone in the Quinnell family paid to Wynter.
That included Albert, who couldn't tear his eyes off Jolene whenever she appeared before. But now, he was obsessed with his sister.
Perhaps it had been too long. They had not met after splitting up during their college years. She cback after hearing that he had not.found a girlfriend since then.
The pizza was still piping hot.

Tobias kept piling meat onto Wynter's plate, reminding her, "Wynter, I believe Albert no longer listens to Grandpa much after falling in love. The brain is pretty much useless when one is in love.
"I know you like that devil, Dalton. But you need to take it easy, as you shouldn't base a marriage on looks alone." "Tobias, that foul mouth of yours could still say something decent.” Sebastian pushed up his glasses.
He continued in the manner of a lawyer, "Wynter, you should try to consider this matter further. There's no need to rush into marriage so soon after coming back to Kingbourne." Rowan was more direct as he said, "I know quite a few well-known movie stars. Take a look and see if any one of them meets your aesthetic requirements. I can introduce you to each other." Upon hearing those words, Wynter raised her eyebrows and solemnly said, “No thanks, Rowan. I've met them before.
"To be honest, none of them can compare to my handspatient. Dalton is mine, and I have no plans to look for another man right now." The brothers exchanged glances. All of them realized that Wynter really only went for looks. There was also a slight sense that Wynter was forcing her feelings on Dalton.
Watching the scene, Albert's feeling of coldness melted away.
Jolene called his ntwice, but seeing that he did not respond, she just smiled.
Their meal lasted until nearly 10:00 pm.
Wynter had wanted to go back to the courtyard, but as she was leaving, she saw a flicker of loneliness on Fabian's face.
"Phil, I'll stay here tonight. You can giveany available room." Pleasantly surprised, Phil responded, "How could it be just any room? Ms. Quinnell, Mr. Quinnell Senior has asked us to keep your room for you. It is upstairs." When Fabian heard that Wynter was staying, he happily stroked his beard.

Unfortunately, there would always be someone who would say something that they shouldn't have.
When they were having tea after dinner, Jolene approached Fabian. Wynter and Tobias were there, too, while the others had gone to wash up.
"Mr. Quinnell Senior, I'm sorry, but I am breaking my earlier promise to you." Jolene did not hide anything from anyone and placed a bank card on the table like a sensible younger person. “I cannot forget Al.
"I am returning the bank card you gaveall those years ago. You may think that Al and I are unsuitable for each other, but we were truly in love.
"I have worked hard for so long just to beca good match for Al Back then, you despised my origin and family background, though you did not clearly state it.
"But I know you think that Al and I have different values and that was of no help to his career, so it would be difficult for us to stay together. "I was young and confused at the time. Between Al and art, I chose art. But after all the years I spent abroad, I finally understand that I love Al the most."
Wynter did not want to involve herself but noticed Fabian's changing m emotions. So, she immediately lifted her head and said, "Ms. Horton, you can say these words directly to Albert. "Besides, my grandpa has never disapproved of anyone's background. You do not know the Quinnells well enough yet." X
