Chapter 509 Our Uncles Are Coming

Tobias might be mischievous at times, but his unwavering care for his family was undeniable. Mariel

understood the immense pain Tobias endured when Wynter was abducted.

Now that both her daughter and son were safely back with her, Marie found herself on the verge of

tears.

She never anticipated earning Tobias’ forgiveness so swiftly, especially after the harsh words she had

uttered during her illness.

Marie was never one to be underestimated. After awakening from her prolonged slumber at the hotel,

she

realized she didn’t recognize the person she had become.

She was a jobless individual who remained at home all the time while Tobias bore the weight of his guilt

alone.

Marie applied to the entertainment company for two reasons: to reconcile with Tobias and to counteract

the negative online comments.

She refused to let her son be criticized and portrayed unfairly.

She wondered why Shane hadn’t intervened in the matter sooner. She was aware Tobias had left home

because of Naomi, claiming he wanted nothing to do with the Quinnells anymore.

But Marie couldn’t fathom why Shane would neglect their son like that.

As she clenched her fists, Marie’s expression darkened with resolve.

Now that Wynter had returned, Marie no longer gave Naomi a second thought, and the Quinnells had

no

reason to adopt another daughter.

Nevertheless, Marie felt the need to make amends for Naomi. After all, Naomi did play a role in her

recovery… or did she?

As Marie contemplated, some images began to surface in her mind.

Regardless, she could not continue to be sheltered. While the Quinnell family might be in disarray, her

own family, the Whitman family, must remain unscathed.

“Tobias, Wynter, come here,” Marie said with a gentle smile, motioning for them to approach.

Wynter and Tobias approached, looking puzzled.

“I’ll be visiting the Whitman family later to see your uncles,” Marie informed them.

“Now?” Tobias exclaimed in surprise.

Married chuckled. “Your upcles haven’t heard the news of Wynter’s return. You know how they feel

about your father, so it’s best if I break the news to them.”

“So our uncles are coming, too?” Tobias’ eyes instantly lit up.

Marie ruffled his hair. “Remember to maintain your image, Mr. Celebrity. With your sister back, your

uncles

should definitely be present at the ceremony.”

“Oh, Dad is going to be in so much trouble,” Tobias remarked with a grin, knowing that his uncles had

always wanted to give Shane a piece of their minds but refrained from doing so because of Marie.

“But I thought they declared they’d never interfere in the Quinnell family’s affairs again,” Tobias added,

recalling the deep disappointment on his uncles’ faces when Marie had agreed to take Naomi in.

Although they had questioned Marie about her decision, she had tearfully remained silent, unable to

utter

a word.

In the end, they had no choice but to leave in puzzlement, unable to comprehend what had changed

their

sister.

Turning to Tobias, Marie explained, “Your uncles said that because of me. I was the cause of all this. If I

hadn’t fallen ill, you wouldn’t have been left alone, and Wynter could have returned to us sooner. So, I

must make things right.” Her fists clenched tighter.

Then, she shifted her gaze to Wynter, smiling affectionately. “Now that Wynter’s back, her loving uncles

will naturally return, too.”

More importantly, the Whitman family should be aware that Wynter, the Quinnells’ heiress, had

returned.

“All my children should be protected not only by the Quinnell family but also by the Whitman family,”

Marie stated firmly.
