Chapter 1112 Expanding to Hawford
Tobias found Logan’s behavior unsettling. Having spent considerable time with Wynter, he’d witnessed her methods of dealing with similar situations.
“Albert, I think this kid is a bit dangerous,” Tobias warned.
Albert had been chairing a meeting with a Bluetooth headset in one ear. He was sending clear
instructions in a deep tone.
When Tobias arrived, Albert was dismissing the marketing department head.
“Inform the Boyd family that the Quinnells have always conducted business with sincerity. However, if they’re not interested in cooperation, we’re not limited to them.”
Since Gordon’s cremation urn was dug out, Albert had harbored plans to expand into Hawford.
In the past, the Quinnell family had established their roots at Hawford before migrating north.
Having spent time on Winnow Street, Hawford held a special allure for Albert. As a financier, he saw greater opportunities in the bustling metropolis.
Moreover, there was an even more compelling reason–the Quinnell Group needed it.
If anyone had undergone a significant transformation, it was Albert. Initially, he had no desire to take over the company, preferring to forge his own path.
After meeting Wynter, he grasped a fundamental truth–the stronger the Quinnell family was, the better able he was to protect his loved ones.
As a child, Albert hadn’t fully understood Fabian’s actions. Now, he did.
Nothing surpassed the Quinnell family’s prosperity. The Quinnells decided to engage in business so that they could leverage their influence and ensure that projects critical to the nation’s prosperity would not be controlled by foreign capital.
If the Boyd family weren’t interested, he’d find other partners.
Albert knew Hawford’s business landscape was dynamic, vastly different from Kingbourne’s. However, the Boyds‘ demands were far too unreasonable. They didn’t seem truly interested in a collaboration.
Realizing he might have interrupted Albert’s meeting, Tobias turned to leave.
But at that moment, Albert stood up and asked, “Dangerous? Him?”
“Creepy,” Tobias replied.
His silver hair made him look both stylish and rebellious. Yet, his words were laced with superstition.
“He must’ve encountered something supernatural. Wynter said his horoscope is extremely weak, making him susceptible to such entities.”
Albert had never been one to believe in such things. He furrowed his brow and said, “I’ll go take a look

“Wynter gave me a coin.” Tobias raised an eyebrow before continuing, “If he really turned evil, just hide
behind me.
Albert, clad in his sharp suit, exuded an air of authority. The idea of him cowering behind anyone seemed absurd. Without a word, he strode toward the living room.
The Quinnells took pride in their hospitality. Hence, they provided a spread of fresh fruits, steaming hot tea, and delectable pastries.
However, Logan remained motionless. Although his clothes were dry, he gave the impression he’d just emerged from water.
His eyes darted about in an unsettling manner, and he became increasingly flustered. The housekeepers tried to avoid him.
Suddenly, Logan spoke in a rough and deep voice that sounded like an echo.
“Where’s Wynter? Ask her to come out here.”
Upon hearing these words when he arrived, Albert narrowed his eyes and turned to Tobias. “Where’s your coin?”
Tobias retrieved a trendy necklace from around his neck. He’d commissioned a designer for the coin.
“Albert, this is my prized possession. It’s a meeting gift from Wynter. Handle it with care. If it darkens, I’m going to destroy Logan.”
