Chapter 1290 Stop Clinging Onto Gordon’s Ideal
As if noticing the attention directed at him, Reuben made his way over to Kenton.
Kenton quickly masked his thoughts with a forced smile. ” Taylor, why didn’t you tell me that Mr. Reuben is feeling better? I could have prepared a comfortable chair for him.”
“There’s no need to trouble yourself.” Reuben glanced at him, clearly establishing boundaries as an elder. “My health has been a concern of yours for some time now. But from now on, there’s no need to worry. Just proceed with the Chamber of Commerce as usual.”
With this, Kenton’s eyes darkened with a trace of hostility. Reuben was still trying to issue orders as if the Wray family were still at the Whitman family’s mercy. Clearly, he hadn’t realized things had changed.
Turning his face away, Kenton subtly signaled to Emmett, who was beside him.
Emmett quickly understood the cue, intentionally speaking loudly, “Mr. Reuben, we can’t start yet. Some invitees haven’t arrived.”
Reuben turned his gaze toward him.
Emmett smiled and explained, “You might not know, but the Quinnell family from Kingbourne has returned. Mr. Wray felt

The exchange effectively painted Wynter as an unreliable and incompetent person who couldn’t keep to a schedule.
business, the two most crucial aspects were keeping promises and being punctual. The people attending the Chamber of Commerce were all significant figures. To gain their respect, one must possess exceptional qualities.

This made some of the Chamber members, especially the undecided ones, start mentally deducting points from Wynter Those who were still curious about the Quinnells current state also silently lowered their gazes, clearly

The earlier visit from Shane had already made them aware that the Quinnell family was no longer what it used to be They had hoped that Gordon’s successors might take ove
the Chamber of Commerce.
This would have offered a glimmer of hope and a chance to revive the Southern Chamber’s original ideals. However, they soon realized that this was merely wishful thinking.
Just because they were Gordon’s descendants didn’t necessarily mean they would be like him. Shane, who was both foolish and petty, had ruined many projects in the past. They had thought that Wynter might be better, especially since she was popular online.
Their hopes were reignited when they saw the current popularity of the Quinnell Group. However, some believed that the Quinnell family’s success had little to do with Wynter and was instead orchestrated by Fabian, aiming to consolidate the company’s shares.
Given the disparity between Wynter managing everything and the possibility that Fabian was behind it all, they leaned toward the latter being the truth.

People were starting to wonder if they should perhaps stop clinging onto Gordon. There was no point anymore.
Those who previously aligned with the Hudson family walked away in disappointment.
Kenton wanted exactly this outcome. He even added fuel to the fire, saying, “Since Mr. Reuben has arrived, it’s only
natural for the younger generation from the Quinnell family to show up eventually. As elders, we can afford to wait a little longer.”
