The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call
Chapter 1047 The Talented Cultivator
âYouâre out of your mind, Maurice! How could you ask her to teach you?â Kolton
exclaimed.
Maurice looked at him in confusion. âIâm not. Remember how I told you Mr. Stavius
once encountered a genius in dispelling formations? Well, that genius was Ms.
Quinnell!
âEver since that day, Mr. Stavius has been dreaming of taking her as his apprentice
and even persuaded her to join Mt. Dragon. However, Ms. Quinnell declined as she has no interest in spiritual practices.
âYou have no idea how amazing she is, Kolton. While we might be gifted, Ms.
Quinnell herself is favored by the heavens!
âIf she trains harder, she could even catch a glimpse behind the secrets of divination.
Mr. Stavius has explained that such talent is innate, revealed by her horoscopes.
Weâre all envious of her!â
Kolton felt his head hurting as he listened to Mauriceâs rambles.
Upon recalling Wynterâs earlier question, he realized he had made a fool of himself.
Clenching his teeth, Kolton was about to inquire further when the Quinnellsâ relatives
beat him to it.
Gathering around Maurice, the relatives nervously asked, âExcuse me, sir. Are you implying that Sevie is skilled in divination and fortuneâtelling?â
âMore than that. Sheâs a master in both. Iâve always wanted to learn from her,â
Maurice replied honestly.
âAnd were you saying that she declined Mr. Staviusâ offer?â The relatives were
completely stupefied.
That morning, all of them had disregarded Wynter as a brash country bumpkin relying on Fabianâs authority. And yet, she turned out to be a skilled medium who had rejected an offer from Mt. Dragon!
While the relatives stood dumbfounded by the revelation, Shane was drowned in
Tuspter 104) The Talented co
regrets.
âAn innate talent revealed by her horoscopes⦠A child favored by the heavensâ¦â Shane murmured in agony. Being superstitious all his life, he understood the implication behind those words.
In contrast, Kaspar was visibly confused by their reactions. âIf you have any questions, just ask me instead. I met Wynter at the hotel, and I do intend to take her on as an apprentice. After all, itâll be a waste of her talent!â
Willing to lose a talented cultivator, Kaspar turned to Wynter and asked, âHave you changed your mind? If you agree to join us, Iâll grant you some privileges.
âFor instance, you can perform spiritual practices in your own house. If thatâs not enough, you can become my mentorâs apprentice instead.â
Everyone could hardly believe their ears. Kaspar was known for rarely accepting visitors, despite numerous appeals from the wealthy and powerful. Only a certain. someone from the Yarwood family could convince him to appear.
Yet, his attitude toward Wynter was entirely unexpected from his usual demeanor.
âYou canât just pass an apprentice to Mr. Osborn, sir!â Kolton anxiously argued.
Kaspar merely glanced at him and refuted, âWhy not? This girl here is a rare talentâa genius cultivator seen only once in a thousand years.
âTo have such a person as an apprentice is an honor. Iâm sure Mr. Osborn would be chuckling gleefully in the afterlife if he knew.â
âDid you hear that? Mr. Stavius claimed that Sevie is a rare talent! Does this mean sheâs more powerful than Mr. Pennington?â one of the relatives exclaimed.
âIâm not so sure. Weâve never seen her perform any rituals or anything like that.â Someone couldnât help but doubt it.
âItâs probably true. After all, Mr. Stavius said so himself. The Quinnells are so lucky! I heard that Mt. Dragon has good eyes for those gifted in spiritual practices,â another
chimed in.
Someone snickered. âShane must be hysterical right now. He always believed his daughter to be a jinx, yet she turns out to be a topâtier medium!â
