DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 1422
Chapter 1422 Marry Into the Family
Noah and Taylor had to return to the company for official matters, as their situation remained precarious and fraught with unseen dangers.
Despite their concern about the property Wynter had seemingly acquired to divert Kenton’s attention, they chose not to
interfere and offered words of caution.
That said, they did hear some troubling rumors about Wynter and decided to address her engagement.
As the food was prepared, Noah and Taylor broached the
subject. “You’ve been engaged to Wynter for quite some time, Dalton. What are your plans? Has Mr. Yarwood Senior been pressuring you?”
When the Quinnells and Whitmans were estranged, Noah and Taylor hadn’t had the chance to express their views as Wynter’s uncles. Yet, they made a point of showing their support for her during formal occasions.
Dalton realized their underlying intention and gave a knowing smile. Just as he was about to respond, Wynter cut him off.
“I understand your concerns, but there’s no need to rush. I’m still young, and it’s more important for me to focus on
business and earning money.
“Besides, I haven’t reclaimed the Southern Cascadian Chamber of Commerce. Let’s talk about marriage another time,” Wynter stated firmly.
But when would that time be? Dalton glanced at her and said, I’m not holding back your ambitions.”
“You’re not a hindrance, but your influence is too strong. Even if I achieve great success, others will attribute it solely to your
support.
“They say women are less capable than men, but I’m
determined to disprove that. What, are you eager?” Wynter
fixed Dalton a stern look.
Dalton picked up a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth. ” Yes, I am eager,” he admitted.
Wynter was taken aback by his answer. She thought they were on the same page about not rushing into marriage.
“Give me a little bit more time. Once things are settled with the Quinnell family, I’ll take you as my husband,” Wynter said with a smile. She felt somewhat like a despicable fraud for not
giving Dalton a definitive answer.
Dalton was completely stunned, while Noah and Taylor wondered if they had heard wrong.
Upon coming to his senses, Dalton seemed anything but. offended. Instead, his face lit up with delight. “If that makes you and your brothers happy, I don’t mind marrying into your family.”
Noah and Taylor shared a look of disbelief. They wondered if Dalton was truly the same man they knew, especially after seeing how he appeared smitten by Wynter.
Dalton was recognized in the business world for his ruthless

and decisive nature. A figure commanding respect and fear, he was the most prominent among the family’s three generations and possessed immense wealth.
Rumors even claimed that he was disinterested in forming close relationships with women, but it seemed that those rumors might not have been entirely accurate.
Just then, Noah’s phone buzzed in his pocket. Glancing at the screen, Noah found that it was a call from Ophelia. Without hesitation, he expressionlessly hung up the call.
Wynter noticed his gesture but chose not to interfere, knowing it concerned Noah’s personal affairs.
Midway through the meal, Taylor rose from his seat as his assistant approached. “Noah and I have some business to attend to at the company. Enjoy your meal.”
Wynter had nearly finished eating by then. Before her uncles left, they reminded her, “You two should get the wedding sorted soon. It’s bad to delay it further. We know people must be pressuring you about it, so just get it done. We’ll prepare a large gift for the occasion.”
While Dalton seemed to appreciate the encouragement, Wynter couldn’t be bothered. After all, Dalton hadn’t been exactly
honest with her.
In truth, Wynter had visited the Whitman residence with specific intentions. She wasn’t just there to prepare Reuben’s medicine in advance, but she also wanted to assess her
uncle’s positions. With her suspicions confirmed, it was time
to close the net.
