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

"Yeah, he's right," the rest of the thugs echoed, the agreements sounding forced and insincere. In reality, they were just eager to leave as quickly as possible.

However, Wynter wasn't about to let them go so easily. Since they had been probing her, she decided to return the favor. Casually, she asked, "Oh? Does the Wray family owe your company money?

"Are you truly sponsoring students despite being a small company? Quite admirable," Wynter remarked with a faint hint of praise.

The compliment sent shivers down Colby's spine. "It's all thanks to our investor. He doesn't just fund us, but he invests in many companies, too. He's from a small town and is just trying to help students get better education opportunities."

"How kind of him. We should meet up sometime." Wynter then added casually, "Since we were so fated to meet each other, how about exchanging contacts?"

Colby was taken aback. "Huh?" His face clearly showed that he thought he had misheard.

Wynter chuckled. "What's the matter? Am I not good enough?"

At this point, Colby knew that refusing would only make things worse. Reluctantly, he pulled out his phone and added her number.
