Chapter 1249 Visiting the Whitman Family
Dalton didn’t oppose Wynter’s instruction. Given his current state, it wasn’t suitable for him to visit the Whitmans. More importantly, he couldn’t stay with Wolf any longer lest the latter lose control.
As Wolf followed Wynter out of the car, his gaze remained fixated on Dalton. Noticing Wolf’s unusual behavior, Wynter questioned curiously, “Is something wrong?”
Wolf gestured to warn her that Dalton was turning more menacing and that provoking him would lead to serious trouble.
“Are you saying someone will be in danger if they mess with Dalton?” Wynter inquired.
When Wolf nodded, she casually assured him that everything would be fine. After all, she wouldn’t be the one suffering the consequences.
Wolf walked a few steps before glancing back at Dalton. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity, as if Dalton were someone he knew and trusted.
Wolf hurriedly dismissed the thought, chiding himself for mistaking Dalton as his master. Shaking his head, Wolf quickened his pace to catch up with Wynter.
When Wynter first took on Vanessa’s case, she had bought some fried chicken for Wolf. Now that she was unoccupied, she could finally hand the food over.
Wolf was carrying a black bag nearly his size, and his eyes lit up with delight at the sight of
food.
In truth, Wynter had prepared a variety of gifts for the Whitmans. However, her journey was delayed by an unexpected murder case, leaving the gifts less fresh than intended.
In comparison, the herbs Wolf carried were still in perfect condition.
Despite their exceptional skills at shaking off their pursuers, Wynter found that she was no longer being followed after leaving the SUV. Apparently, no one expected her to hail a taxi to the Whitman residence.
When Wynter and Wolf finally arrived at the Whitman residence, it was nearly dinnertime.
Listening to his growling stomach, Wolf looked up to Wynter and made a questioning gesture. He wondered if Reuben would give him as much meat as Fabian did.
Wynter gently caressed his hair and replied, “He might, or he might not. He still holds onto his resentments.”
4.
Just then, a voice called out to them. “W–Where did you come from? You can’t go any further as this is a private residence.”
While watering the plants in the garden, a maid spotted Wynter and Wolf. She rushed over and signaled for them to leave. It was then that Wynter realized the mansion before them

belonged to the Whitmans.
“We’re here to meet Mr. Whitman Senior. Could you please inform him of our arrival?” Wynter asked, discreetly hiding her identity to secure her entry.
Instead of avoiding one another and speculating about motives, Wynter sincerely believed that any grudges or misunderstandings could be resolved by having a thorough and honest conversation.
With that in mind, Wynter decided that securing her entry was her top priority.
“Mr. Reuben isn’t feeling well today. He’s not in the condition to welcome any guests. Which family do you represent? I’ve never seen you before,” the maid, Jesslyn Garcia, replied with a note of hostility and wariness.
Wynter instantly came up with an excuse. “We’ve been sent by Mr. Whitman to check on his father.”
However, Jesslyn remained skeptical. “The Whitman family has always called for Dr. Chester Harper.”
“Dr. Harper will arrive shortly. We’re just here to see if Mr. Whitman Senior needs a change of dressing,” Wynter explained as she showed her medical qualification certificate.
Though Jesslyn didn’t expect such a young woman to be an attending physician, she refused to give entry without further verification. “Hold on, let me confirm with Mr. Taylor.” With that, Jesslyn contacted Taylor via the intercom phone. Once Taylor confirmed that he had contacted a doctor, she finally allowed Wynter and Wolf inside. “I apologize for my rudeness, miss. Please come inside.”
