Chapter 544 Targetting Her Brothers
Winnie liked its smell. “You brought me another amulet? You're always so thoughtful, Naomi.”
All of Winnie's doubts cleared away in that instant. “Mr. Quinnell Senior was too much. How could he prevent you from attending the banquet? “While Sevie is his biological granddaughter, you've also sacrificed a lot for the family.”
“I'm fine, Winnie.” Naomi smiled. There was a slight malicious glint in her eyes as she lowered her gaze.
Let me put it on for you.”
Winnie nodded with a smile. “I don’t know why, but none of the perfumes I've bought overseas can compare to the medicinal aromas your amulets give off. They're always missing something.”
“You're always busy with work and don't get good sleep. This scent can help calm your nerves.” As Naomi
spoke, the malice in her smile grew more pronounced.
Winnie didn't notice at all. She appeared slightly addicted to the sandalwood amulet's scent.
Naomi hadn't planned on going that strong with the medicinal aroma. After all, anyone who inhaled it for too long would lose their minds easily. She just didn't want to lose the connections she had painstakingly
built.
If only everyone exhibited the same susceptibility as that group by the door. A little medicinal aroma was
all that was needed to manipulate them at will.
Recently, there have been many unexpected incidents in Naomi's plans. She couldn't understand why Austin and Logan had left the group chat.
Back then, Austin had been the most protective of her. He always stood up for her no matter what she
said.
While she never gained full control of Logan due to his constitution, his brother Chad's unrequited love for her ensured Logan never opposed her openly, either.
Naomi initially hoped Logan's departure from the group chat was merely coincidental.
However, when Austin followed suit with a cryptic comment before leaving, Naomi couldn't shake the feeling that events were unfolding without her knowledge.
The sense of unease made her increase the medicinal incense’s potency.
In reality, the best approach would be to use it on Fabian. The malicious glint in her eyes grew stronger at
the thought of it.
She muttered silently, “It's true that people grow more suspicious as they age.”
Over the years, Fabian had never opposed her openly. He had only prevented her from being adopted but still provided her with all the resources she needed. That was why she didn’t pay much attention to him.
He was unlike Tobias whom she had to specially deal with.
Chapter 44 Targeting Her Brother
She had assumed Fabian was just like Shane-soft-hearted, driven by familial bonds, and easily swayed with the right approach. She didn’t expect Fabian to play her with her own game.
He had never made a move before Sevie’s return but had his son relinquish his rights to the company as
soon as she returned.
Naomi clenched the medicinal incense sachet tightly.
Her father could not fail. The better he fared, the better she could secure her position as the Quinnells’
heiress.
She had met the six Quinnell brothers before, but all of them seemed to keep their distance from her. Only Albert seemed approachable, while Tobias was her stumbling block.
As for the rest of the brothers... Naomi looked up toward the end of the gallery. She needed to find a way
to manipulate them.
The Quinnells have accumulated good karma over generations, making it difficult for the medicinal
incense to take effect.
Moreover, the brothers had a strong state of mind and wouldn't succumb easily to the medicinal aroma’s influence. Otherwise, she wouldn't be in such a predicament.
“Naomi. What are you thinking about?” Wendy nudged her. “I've been trying to get your attention for quite
some time now.”
“Ah, I'm sorry, Wendy. I've been a little distracted lately.”
“It must be because of the Quinnell family.” Wendy was upset. “Mr. Quinnell Senior is heartless. You've been with the Quinnells for so many years, and he didn’t even send you an invitation!”
