Chapter 1330 Wynter
Wynter spoke up before Taylor could. "Uncle Taylor, let's talk privately later."
Wynter wanted to discuss the matters regarding the financial accounts with Taylor. She figured it was best not to let Reuben know about this yet.
After all, she had seen Reuben's condition and knew he needed medication tonight to gradually stabilize his health.
Taylor was amused by her mature demeanor and replied with a smile, "Alright, we'll talk privately later." Reuben had no idea what these two youngsters were up to.
After the initial selection of members for the Chamber of Commerce concluded, the next step was practical implementation.
One business partner after another came to bid farewell to Reuben. Besides urging him to take care of his health, they eagerly awaited the upcoming results of the total profit.
Kenton also walked over. However, his opening remarks were laden with hidden barbs. "Mr. Reuben, I must say, I truly admire your magnanimity. You were able to forgive your daughter, who was such a lovesick fool, even after the trouble she had caused for the Whitmans.
"You even accepted your granddaughter. Aren't you afraid she might also bring misfortune to the Whitmans?"
Reuben chuckled, though his expression was inscrutable. "I've even helped the disloyal and ungrateful Wrays. Is it not normal for me to be kind to my own granddaughter?"
Kenton was enraged by the response. He clenched his teeth amid the shocked murmurs of those around. He now clearly realized that times had changed.
Kenton couldn't help but think that Reuben seemed to trust Wynter far too much. Was it merely because of his illness?
Kenton seemed to recall something and said, "Mr. Reuben, you don't need to harbor such strong hostility toward me. We, the younger generation, are only concerned about your health.
"I heard from Ms. Yates that people have died while receiving medical treatment from Mrs. Yates Senior. The patient seemed to be recovering well. They were eating, drinking, and working normally.
"But within a week, the patient's organs began to fail. Despite all efforts, they couldn't be saved. Wynter obtained her medical skills from that very same lady, so there's no guarantee that nothing will go wrong. "I've consulted Dr. Campbell, and he will be arriving in Cascadia in a few days. He is an expert in this field. Once he's here, you can then judge if my concerns are founded or not."
Kenton was clearly implying that Wynter's medical skills were unreliable.
Kenton's personality was truly repulsive. Everyone knew that the Whitmans were most concerned about Reuben's health.
Yvette also played along, feigning anger. "Mr. Wray, you promised not to bring up my grandmother's situation."NôvelDrama.Org content.
"I apologize, Ms. Yates. I was only worried that Mr. Reuben might be misled." Kenton maintained a respectful demeanor toward Yvette on the surface. This served to elevate her status.
Yvette furrowed her brows. "I'm currently helping everyone with divinations to atone for the sins
committed by my grandmother. I hope Mr. Wray will refrain from mentioning this matter again in the future, or our cooperation will come to an end."
"I certainly won't bring it up again! We still need to rely on you with the stock market," Kenton hurriedly replied.
Kenton's display was not just only a show for the Whitmans, but it was also aimed at sowing discord between the Whitmans and Quinnells at the last moment.
More importantly, he wanted the members of the Chamber of Commerce to see that Yvette's lack of advantage during the selection process was not reflective of her true value. In terms of the stock market, Yvette's presence was significant.
Unlike Wynter, who was merely deceiving people with her medical skills, Yvette truly had real expertise. The people around were clearly listening. The idea of someone's medical practice leading to death was horrifying. Some who had initially wanted to get to know Wynter now reconsidered their intentions. Only Wynter herself chuckled at this moment. "Evan, you say? Is he coming? What a coincidence. I'm actually acquainted with him..."
