The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call
Chapter 920 What He Feared Most
âIâm afraid thatâs not possible,â Wynter interrupted as she entered the room. âJust because some evidence hasnât been made public doesnât mean it doesnât exist. Youâre being too impatient, Mr. Donovan.â
âMs. Quinnell,â Hector said, surprised to see her. Alfie had warned him that the investigators this time were formidable. Now that Alfie had been taken away, he had to handle matters alone.
Hector hadnât expected to encounter the Quinnell familyâs daughter in a situation like this. He knew about Wynterâs brother, Sebastian.

As a lawyer, he had no desire to cross paths with Sebastian, so he didnât want to offend his sister, either.
âNice to meet you, Ms. Quinnell,â Hector greeted, standing up and extending his hand. âI recently saw your photo on Sebastianâs social media. I didnât expect to meet you in person so soon.â
He was trying to build rapport.
Wynter, smiling slightly, didnât refuse the handshake. In fact, she tightened her grip.
âIâve reviewed your resume, Mr. Donovan. Over the years, youâve been a great help to the Lowe family.
âMany cases have been settled out of court, and others were dropped before they could proceed. Youâve been a great support to Wyattâs brazen acts.â
Hector smiled and tried to defend himself. âWhen you take a clientâs money, you solve their problems Besides, my client is just a kid. Parents understand that kids sometimes fight.â
âKids sometimes fight?â Wynter repeated, her voice low. âYouâre known for twisting facts, Mr. Donovan.
âLet me give you some adviceâbefore taking on a case, know your opponent. Not every outcome will go as you expect.â
Hector dismissed Wynterâs warning. She might be formidable in business, but he was an expert in juvenile defense and confident in his ability to win.
âImpressive, Ms. Quinnell. Itâs getting late. My client needs medical attention,â Hector said, checking his
watch.
Just as he was about to flash a smile, his assistant rushed in and whispered something in his ear.
Hectorâs expression changed instantly. âNew evidence? What new evidence?â he whispered.
The assistant shook his head. âI donât know. They didnât disclose any details.â
Wynter picked up Hectorâs application form and calmly crossed out a line with her pen. âWeâre not just prosecuting for bullying. You might want to gather all the facts before defending your client.â
Next, Wynter placed the pen down and walked toward the interrogation room.
Hector began to panic. As a lawyer, nothing was worse than sudden new evidence. He had no idea what the opposition had found or if his client had lied to him, and that uncertainty was the crux of the problem.
Chapter 920 What He Fenced Most
When Hector had agreed to defend the Lowe family, Alfie warned him about Wyattâs violent tendencies. He had a history of severely hurting people, and Hector had managed to smooth over previous incidents.

Wyatt wouldnât as to physically harm a girl, would he? So, what else could it be?
As these thoughts raced through his mind, Hector suddenly looked up. A dreadful realization dawned on
him. It couldnât be what he feared most, could it?
