Wynter's gaze darkened. "Mr. Quinnell?" "Your father," Alexis clarified, though he sounded reluctant to dive into this conversation. “He got into a fight with Mr, Quinnell Senior earlier." On the other line, Wynter appeared to be in deep thought. After a long pause, she said, "Alexis, could you prepare a few medicinal ingredients for me?
