NovelOnlineChapter 972 It's Also Problematic To Have Too Good of a Fortune The night grew darker.
At first glance, the back garden seemed perfectly normal. At the very least, it appeared ideal from a fortune-telling perspective. It was said that a house facing south with its back to the north would attract positive energy.
However, it was this seemingly perfect setup that masked a significant flaw.
Every piece of land has its own unique fortune. In this world, it was not just humans that had souls. Every plant and tree had a spirit too.

The layout in this back garden had precisely disrupted this balance. Although the fortune of this house was good, it blocked the wind from the east. That would mean that the fortune of the entire villa community would not be able to rise and would remain stuck.
Wynter carefully surveyed the surroundings. She knew there were surveillance cameras, but had to hack the main system herself now that Wolf wasn't around.
The footage displayed in the security room now was of the previous night.
As for Declan, his attention was currently entirely focused on Albert. For him, nothing was more important than finding a new valuable puppet.
Declan had underestimated Wynter, and Liam even more so. Liam assumed that Wynter was only interested in leisure.
His assumptions were evident from Wynter ordering several bottles of wine and playing loud video games. She would also constantly demand snacks. Outsiders would assthat Wynter was the actual heiress, not just a guest.
"Mr. Miller, what's going on?" Albert, who was downstairs, timely asked. "You've been going upstairs a lot. Is something wrong with Wolcott?" Liam scoffed. "It's not Mr. Jones. If only it was him. It's Ms. Quinnell. Frankly, Sir Quinnell, you and this Ms. Quinnell..." "Liam!" Declan stopped pouring his tea, anger evident on his face. "Who gave you the permission to discuss Wynter?" Liam was visibly frightened and immediately fell silent. He had been so frustrated today that he forgot his place.

Jolene, with her usual tact, stepped in as a mediator. "It is indeed getting late. Al, it's easy for Wynter to suffer from indigestion if she eats like this.
"From my previous interactions with her, she doesn't seem like the type to keep the butler busy all the time." Jolene's words prompted a glance from Declan.
Albert replied coldly, "She argued with Grandpa. I didn't even know shem cto great undle. She has been quite stubborn lately. She used to listen to us. But recently... Albert's tone was unable to mask his disappointment." She's a bit difficult to figure out."
Jolene as the "beacon of purity" surely had to show her om compassionate side at this moment.
"I talk to Wynter tomorrow. Girls her age are sensitive and tend to overthink. "I might understand her better since both she and I cfrom humble backgrounds. Perhaps Mr. Quinnell Senior has been pushing her too hard."
"I told Grandpa the sthing. I told him that once Wynter's set in hem ways, forcing her to do things she's not good at won't help. But Grandpa wouldn't listen."
