Chapter 572 The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
That's precisely what fueled Shane's anger even more. However, he couldn't bring himself to chase after
her. He had his dignity to uphold!
Naomi grew anxious. “Dad, please go talk nicely to Mom. She won't really go through with the divorce.”
“If she wants a divorce, then let her have it!” Shane loosened his tie. Sweat beaded on his forehead and
his eyes blazed with fury.
Naomi couldn't fathom how her usually sharp-witted father couldn't see the gravity of the situation.
How could he allow the divorce to become a certainty at such an event?
What was she going to do after today!
The timing of the documents in Marie's hands couldn't have been more perfect.
Without them, she wouldn't have been so resolute to divorce Shane today.
The most cunning aspect of this strategy was that it eliminated any
chance of Naomi using Shane and her to get closer to the Quinnell and Whitman family.
Even Tobias found himself puzzled. “Mom, how did you suddenly piece everything together?”
He and his brothers had all assumed that divorce was a process that would require time. It was something that could only happen if Marie truly let go.
After all, youthful love wasn't something that could be easily forgotten.
They certainly hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.
Sebastian got straight to the point. “Mom, where did you get those documents from?”
The timing seemed too perfect.
It was almost as if the document had been strategically placed in his mother’s hands to coincide with the th the
banquet.
Marie smiled. “It was Dalton. He said that if he did more work, Sevie wouldn't have to strain her mind as much and could catch a bit more sleep.”
The three brothers, who had just raised their wine glasses, paused simultaneously.
Tobias chuckled. “Indeed, tycoons do have a knack for winning hearts without showing their faces.”
Sebastian adjusted his glasses. Is this his way of making up for missing the event?”
Their younger sister had only just returned. They weren't in a rush to see her married off immediately.
“Wynter, what's on your mind?” Elliot asked Wynter.
Wynter's attention drifted away from the conversation. She paused to listen for a moment then said, guys stay with Mom. I'll go take a look around.”

Her primary objective was to get a better read on Declan.
He had always been aligned with Fabian.
Despite Shane's appeals, Declan had chosen not to intervene.
It left Wynter feeling unsettled about him. Individuals she couldn't decipher always stirred a sense of
unease within her.
Instinctively, she reached for the lucky token hanging from her waist.
“What's your take on it? Could it be him?” she whispered.
“Master, as you instructed, while they were focused on you, I observed the surroundings. Some of the
people here do seem suspicious, especially those who argued with you. I'll explain the details later.” The
resentful infant hovered over the lucky token as a faint wisp of smoke wafted upward.
“Regarding the person you specifically asked me to monitor, I couldn't get close. He possesses a
protective charm.”
Wynter's gaze shifted towards Declan, deep in thought.
“But Master, he doesn’t seem to fit the profile of the culprit from last time. Something feels off.”
The resentful infant hopped around, eyeing the little cakes nearby.
“Maybe you should ask your sisters.”
When the twins were mentioned,
she thought hard. “His voice isp

“Isn't as healthy“ was a peculiar way to describe someone.
Wynter waited for everyone to join the scene. Even in the previous moments, she remained silent and just
observed.
