The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 639 Dalton Knows Everything

But inside the formation, Dalton had definitely crushed that doll.

Logically, if the coin could be kept, then the doll should have been destroyed, too.

Wynter wondered if there was something she had overlooked.

Just relying on newspaper clippings wouldn’t provide the whole picture.

Since Fabian was captured by Rory back then, Wynter paused and pulled up a picture on her phone. Grandpa, have you ever seen this thing?”

Fabian’s expression changed the moment he saw the photo. “Wynter, where did you take this photo?”

Seeing the expression on his face, Wynter knew she had asked the right person. “It wasn’t me. Many online stores are selling them, Ms. Yeaton’s house has one.”

“This thing is eerie. You better not touch it.” This was the first time Fabian opposed something this much. Frowning, he asked, “Why has this wooden doll shown up again? Wasn’t it banned from sale for a while?”

Tobias, as a top–tier idol, looked at the photo. ‘Grandpa, this doll is popular among many girls. Isn’t it quite common? What do you mean it’s eerie?”

Fabian wasn’t superstitious, so Tobias didn’t understand why he wore a troubled expression when he looked at the doll.

“You know nothing.” Fabian seemed ready to use his cane to hit Tobias, but he took a deep breath. “The Foplyan official back then used to carry this doll around.”

He remembered this clearly. At that time, he was kept underground, and Rory worshipped this wooden doll.

“Worshipped?” Sebastian’s expression changed upon hearing this.

Tobias seemed to realize something. He looked at Wynter.
