Chapter 299 Powerful Connections Dalton pointed out dryly, "In my defense, I didn't know she was the person the Quinnells have been looking for." Theo stopped teasing Dalton after a while. Just knowing that Wynter might one day bechis granddaughter- in-law was enough for him. "In that case, do your best. If you don't know how to go about asking for her hand, then read a or something!" Dalton thought, "A ?" He would have never done anything so st*pid as to read a for inspiration, but when he clicked into his inbox and found no messages from Wynter, he decided otherwise.
With a click and a swipe, he stumbled upon a very popular romance web . All the comments were raving about the male character, who was apparently the man of every woman's dreams.
Dalton had no issues negotiating a billion-dollar deal, but reading a romance was a different ballpark altogether.
He frowned as he read the first chapter.
Meanwhile, Wynter was unaware that Dalton had resorted to seeking inspiration from the wrong sources. So, when a hundred cups of coffee of various types and brands were delivered to her house along with rose petals the next day, she was entirely baffled.

Wynter distributed the coffee to the neighbors and saved the ones with sugar for Wolf, who happily gulped them down. When he was done, he signed, "I never want to drink coffee again!" She ruffled his hair. "Good luck, kid. By the way, hand those flowers out for me, will you?" Wolf frowned in agitation. All he wanted to do was find out who had sent all these coffee and flowers.
Wynter picked up a rose and laughed. "Who else? A certain Mr. Yarwood, I presume." Wolf signed, "I like him better when he's handing out bank cards.” Wynter neither agreed nor disagreed with him. She glanced at her phone and put on her baseball cap and mask. "Stay hwith Grandma. I'm going out to get my award." Wolf blinked at her, as if asking, "Prize? What prize?" He knew Wynter, would never attend anything like an award ceremony, and he wondered what made her change her mind.
In truth, Wynter had promised she would make an appearance. She wanted to see how the survivors, especially Yarra, were doing.
After all, with Havenlight County taking up half of Southdale's territory, the rescue operation at Paradise Village had caused quite a stir.
Countless children who had been rescued and parents from all over had flocked to Southdale to personally thank Lucas.
Lucas oversaw the whole operation until the end. He first set up medical units for the children who had been rescued, then looked into all the departments that had allegedly taken bribes from the traffickers. After that, he visited every village in every county.
Things were shaking up in Southdale.
The average person might not be able to tell, but those who did civil work knew that Lucas would one day restructure and rule Southdale with an iron fist.
Before this, there was talk that Lucas might not live up to the expectations as the new Secretary-General. The politics in Southdale were not the easiest to figure out, after all, since they were so deeply entrenched in connections.
Lucas never turned down any case that was escalated to the City Bureau. There was no foul play at work regardless of how big the case was.

The drivers who heard this nearly dropped their cigarettes. They wondered who Wynter was. She had shown up here riding a motorbike, and the drivers thought she was one of the rescued.
