The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call ( Wynter Quinnell )
Chapter 1498

Chapter 1498 Joining Forces Against Wynter

Tamia had never been in a better mood. She immediately called for a bottle of wine, intending to celebrate.

It had been the most relaxing day for her in a long time. Before this, one piece of news after another about the Wray family kept coming in. Not only did she panic, but she also felt an underlying sense of unease.

Over the years, the Montclair and Wray families had been deeply intertwined. Even though there weren't any overt benefits to their relationship, there had always been an exchange of information between the two. The Montclair family had even played a part in that major incident years ago.

Before, Tamia had feared the Wray family's downfall more than anyone else. Now, she saw things differently.

First, there was the upcoming division of the Whitman family shares. Second, she had learned that the Wray family wasn't the only one suffering in the stock market. Many powerful families in Hawford had lost money because of Wynter.

Tamia knew that to establish any lasting influence, harmony was key. Wynter's reckless behavior had angered too many people.

If she had only offended the Wray family, perhaps she could have returned to Kingbourne. But to make enemies of everyone? There was only one outcome for that-death.

As she swirled the wine in her glass, Tamia glanced at her phone. Every call was about helping Ophelia with the divorce.

The Waldron family had even made their stance clear. "Madam Wooten, we've heard all about the Montclair family's situation.

"The Whitman family has been abusing their power for too long. For years, Ophelia sacrificed her career to stay home and care for the family, and yet, this is how Noah repays her!

"Rest assured, as soon as the divorce agreement is finalized and the shares are secured, we will immediately cut all business ties with the Whitmans. Going forward, we'll rely on you for business matters."

These were words Tamia liked to hear. She had held power for many years, all for the sake of building her business empire.

However, while the Montclair family was an established lineage, their foundation was too weak to compare with the Whitman family. That was why she took the unconventional route and arranged for Ophelia to marry into the Whitman family.

Now, all the pieces had fallen into place. Once the divorce process began, there would be no turning back.

If, at first, she had regretted her decision and wanted to stop Ophelia, she now couldn't wait for the proceedings to move faster so she could secure the shares immediately.

Ophelia noticed Tamia's good mood. "Mom, did something good happen?"

"The Waldron family called, saying they want to collaborate with us," Tamia replied, her calculations clear in her expression.

"The Waldron family?" Ophelia frowned. "Haven't they always sided with the Whitmans?"

"That was the previous generation." Tamia took a sip of red wine. "The Whitmans have always stepped on others, so who would want to be perpetually in their shadow?

"The Wray family knew how to do business, making money with others without being too rigid, but unfortunately, they've fallen. If it weren't for the investigation into the Wray family today, the Waldrons wouldn't have shown themselves."

Ophelia still didn't understand. "But why would the Waldron family come to us?"

"That Quinnell chick has gotten too arrogant." Tamia sneered, her smile filled with malice. " She thinks just because she made some money in the stock market, she can strut around Hawford.

"But if she's going after the Wray family, she'd better consider whether the person behind the Wray family wants that to happen."

She hinted cryptically, "Don't you suppose the owner will be furious if their fiercest watchdog is killed? Of course, the master won't deal with it personally and will just send another watchdog to handle it.

"The Wray family may be gone, but there's still the Waldron family. Now, everyone knows Noah wronged you. You can take 20 percent of the Whitman family shares whenever you want."
