Chapter 348 Dalton Is Actually a Hopeless Romantic
Ronan apologized to the Winstons in his mind. It wasnât that he was oblivious, but Dalton spoke of
retribution while maintaining a polite
demeanor.
The stark contrast left Ronan feeling a chill down his spine. Suddenly, he wasnât sure if it was a good
thing for Wynter to marry a man like
this.
At this moment, Daltonâs voice softened again. âMr. Quinnell must
have had his reasons for asking you to show her around. Please assist her if she needs anything.â
Ronan responded quickly, âEven if you hadnât called, I would have
been willing to help Ms. Quinnell. Itâs an honor for me to meet her.â
The Xerton coin in his pocket felt conspicuous. He had accompanied many people on shopping trips in
Panzarath.
Who cared about those old rules nowadays? Some people, like Naom
and Shane, treated him like a servant and expected him to cater to
them.
Today, for the first time, Ronan felt that being an external member of the Quinnell family wasnât so bad.
Previously Fabian, and now Wynter. While businesspeople often pursued profit, Ronan admired and
devoted himself to those who
would leave behind lasting value.
Dalton seemed surprised by Ronanâs response. Ronanâs information was on Daltonâs desk. Ronan was
on good terms with all the

aristocratic families in Kingbourne. They were considered his
employers.
He smiled at everyone and spoke kindly, but it was hard to have him.
open up.
As long as there was no personal gain involved, he could betray anyone at any time. Only Fabian could
truly connect with him.
Ronan had never openly declared his support for anyone before. But now, he was backing Wynter. It
seemed Wynter had once again done
something unexpected.
Smiling, Dalton tapped his long fingers on the desk. âSorry for overstepping. Iâm relieved that you think
that way. With you by her side, she wonât be left alone if any conflicts arise.â
âBut I donât think Ms. Quinnell feels alone at all,â Ronan couldnât help but comment when he noticed
how engaging the legendary scion was. âShe didnât seem to care about the rumors circulating in our
circles.â
Daltonâs fingers paused, and then he asked slowly, âWhat rumors?â
Ronan repeated what he had told Wynter earlier. Upon hearing his words, Daltonâs eyes turned cold,
and his grip on his pen tightened. The scarlet rosary bracelet on his wrist seemed to glisten like blood.
This was the scene Franklin witnessed when he entered the room. He had never seen Dalton like this
before. The air around him was chilling as if he were about to do something dreadful at any moment.
Then Franklin heard Dalton say on the phone, âYou can spread a fact.â
Ronan was puzzled. âWhat?â

âI pursued her. She ignored my affection and denied my advances,â Dalton said, still smiling as he
spoke. âThe wedding date depends on
her mood.â
Ronan was shocked. This wasnât a fact. If this were to get out in their
circles, it would be like dropping a bomb.
âNo one would believe you if you said that.â
It was quite outlandish. After all, Dalton had the kind of face that suggested he didnât need to pursue
others.
But now, he was claiming that Wynter had rejected his advances. That seemed too far-fetched, even
for the rumor mill.
Dalton looked up and took the contract from Franklinâs hand while. saying calmly, âSir Rathbone, feel
free to spread this. Iâll affirm it later.
Letâs see who doesnât believe it.â
Ronan and Franklin were left speechless.
