Chapter 1048 It Was Her All Along
As the Quinnells‘ relatives were prone to superstitions, they agreed to obey Declan in hopes of reaping some benefits.
After all, Declan had connections to notable mediums who could potentially change. their fate and fortune. It was undoubtedly a golden opportunity to advance their
business careers.
Despite being affiliated with one of the reputable families, the relatives didn’t
possess significant wealth. Plus, they held little authority in the company and had no influence over any matters.
The relatives sincerely believed that siding with Declan would bring them great fortune. However, they didn’t expect Kaspar to acknowledge Wynter, whom they scorned and disregarded, as a rare talent.
The crowd stood dumbfounded by the revelation. Even Albert wore an expression of
astonishment.
Kolton was completely baffled and couldn’t help feeling that his reputation as a genius cultivator had been overshadowed. However, he doubted that Wynter was. who Kaspar claimed her to be.
Kolton had sensed an aura of hostility from Wynter rather than the serene presence a cultivator possessed. And upon studying her face, she clearly had a propensity for
violence.
Kolton approached Kaspar and whispered distrustfully, “Are you mistaken, Mr. Stavius? Can’t you see the heavy burdens weighing on her?”
“Personal burdens come in various forms, Kolton. You still have much to learn. I suggest you keep training lest you embarrass yourself in front of the experts.” Kaspar scoffed as he cast a glance at Kolton.
Kaspar’s words dealt a blow to Kolton’s pride. Feeling humiliated, Kolton hung his
head in shame.
When he heard Kaspar’s statement, Declan shot a spiteful glare at Wynter. “So, are you actually skilled in fortune–telling? That means the Scotts‘ incident wasn’t a
Coincidence!”
As she never intended to reveal her ability, Wynter had strategically manipulated
Kolton into resolving the matter.
Wynter wondered if Atwater, who went missing, had learned that his peer was still alive and conspiring to destroy the Quinnell family. Worse, there might be a larger
plot at play.
At that moment, Wynter recalled Atwater’s last words and couldn’t help feeling
concerned.
She had hoped to uncover the mastermind in secret. If they learned that she could infiltrate the formation and dispel it, they might stay on high alert. It would be difficult
to track them down later.
In truth, Wynter had deduced the mastermind as someone from a prestigious family.
To prevent further complications, she refrained from involving herself in the previous
incident. Yet, Kaspar came and revealed her feat to the public.
Realizing she had no escape, Wynter gave an ambiguous answer. “I indeed had a meeting with the Scotts, but it wasn’t about them. I had a divination and warned Logan against racing on the mountain road.”
The relatives were shocked by the revelation. In particular, Shane could hardly
believe his ears.
The Scott family was mentioned to be cursed following a late–night race in the
mountains.
Usually, Mason and Logan would meet up for a race. However, Logan failed to show
that day.

The two families grew apart after the incident, and Mason’s behavior took a turn for
the worse. That fateful event marked the once prestigious Scott family’s downfall.
While others had their speculations, it seemed that only the Scotts and the Winstons
knew the reason behind Logan’s absence. And yet, Wynter admitted that she had
warned Logan beforehand.
Shane wore a grimace of regret. When he turned to his father, he was surprised to

In sudden realization, Shane exclaimed, “You were aware of Sevie’s ability all along!”
