Chapter 1401 Hidden Crisis
Taylor never said anything casually and had already started investigating the Montclair family’s accounts.
From his perspective, Ophelia’s biggest mistake, among many, was still listening to the Montclair family after everything that had happened.
But these were, after all, Noah’s family affairs, and Taylor had no intention of letting the younger generation find out.
However, Wynter was not just any ordinary young person. When she heard him mention these things, she already knew where the problem lay.
Since earlier, Cyrus‘ phone hadn’t stopped ringing, with many calls coming from Ophelia. Wynter wasn’t someone who had just entered society, so she understood very well what these calls meant.
Ophelia didn’t want him involved with her, and there were many reasons for this. Wynter wasn’t going to meddle in this “family matter“, so the best approach was to pretend she didn’t know anything.
Meanwhite, Ophelia was so anxious she couldn’t even eat. Cyrus wouldn’t answer her calls, and the things Tamia had said seemed to have become a thorn in her side.
She didn’t have any particular opinion about Wynter before. In fact, she even hoped Marie would come back sooner.
But now, things were different. She never imagined that Wynter could affect Cyrus‘ standing. The more capable Wynter was, the more it made Cyrus seem inadequate.
He clearly had his own strengths. She had spent so much time cultivating him, and Tamia had found the best overseas schools for him to study finance.
These were all things she used to be proud of, but in front of Wynter, they seemed meaningless.
Ophelia was feeling quite unbalanced. When Noah returned, her frustration turned into tears.
“Cyrus has never been treated like this before. He’s an excellent student, after all. Now, he’s being made to follow Wynter around like some lackey. It breaks my heart.”
Noah was a good husband. For all these years, he had always gone along with her wishes. Since he agreed to marry her, he naturally had to take responsibility.
But now, as he looked at Ophelia, who was as delicate as a flower, his tone remained calm as always. “Is this how you see it?”
“I know Dad must have his reasons for doing this, but Hawford’s social circles are small, and word gets around quickly. What does this make Cyrus look like to everyone else?”
She took a deep breath, seeming very wronged. “I didn’t want to say anything initially and thought it would be good for Cyrus to follow along and gain some experience.
“After all, Dad has always been fond of Wynter, and we don’t need to compete for that. But look at what Cyrus has been doing lately!”
She handed her phone to Noah. “He’s using these connections because he’s trying to get involved in land deals and stock trading.”
She looked up and continued, “You know your son. If no one was behind him, he wouldn’t be interested in these two things at all. It’s obvious he’s just helping Wynter find connections.”
Noah took the phone, and his eyes darkened slightly. It was hard to tell what he was thinking, but Ophelia,

having been married to him for many years, knew very well that he was angry. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
She was fully aware of what the Whitman family was most wary of–land deals and stock trading. This was how Shane had almost ruined the Whitman family back then.
Now, Wynter was going down the same path again, and no one would trust her.
Ophelia didn’t actually have any personal grievances against her, but she was just too dazzling. Under such circumstances, how could Cyrus ever rise to prominence?
Ophelia hadn’t understood Lynette’s subtle animosity toward Marie in the past. But now, she could sort of understand.
Some people’s very existence would throw things off balance. If she didn’t guard against them, what should have been hers might easily slip away.
