The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1976

As soon as the audience below the stage heard Wynter's words, they erupted into applause. The online viewers watching via livestream responded similarly, flooding the chat room with comments.

"Very well said, miss! Not only have you explained that the mainland isn't the same as it was before, you even warned off those foreign forces just now!"

"Agreed."

"She's not only patriotic but has even declared that Havenia and the mainland are one big family, both online and offline. Great! Wonderful!"

The voices from the crowd grew louder as well.

"Those photos I saw just now were so beautiful. How was the Redmist landform in the mainland formed?"

"Is the beef pasta in the mainland's Northwestern part really different from other places?"

"I want to visit the mainland during the holidays. Could you recommend a city for us to visit?"

Wynter patiently answered all their questions. She knew that deep-rooted prejudices couldn't be completely overturned with just a few words.

It seemed that, at least for now, she'd managed to sow some seeds. Now, she only needed to wait until the Havenians went to the mainland to see for themselves, and they'd understand.

As for the livestream, the host had already rushed to the phone and declared, "Thank you for coming to support the stream, everyone. I'll send everyone a mystery box. You can all participate in the lucky draw!"

Soon, Wynter walked down the stage. Dalton, seeing this, had already stood up to greet her.

Yet, Ellen and the others were even faster than him. They ran up to Wynter before he could approach.

Ellen said gratefully, "The things you said just now moved us deeply, Wynter. We old folk usually take what we hear at face value. As such, we never considered that the mainland was completely different from what we hear via rumors. It's all thanks to you that our views have changed!"

"If you have the time, you can organize a group vacation to the mainland with ladies around your age, Ms. Mette. I believe you'll have a good impression of the place," Wynter replied, looking up with a smile in her eyes. "I hope that from now on, we'll be able to dispel the prejudice Havenians have of the mainland."

Ellen nodded vigorously. "I definitely will! When I head back today, I'll tell my extended family—even if it's my maternal cousin twice removed—all about this. And when the time comes, I'll take them to see the real mainland!"

Wynter replied, "Okay. When the time comes, I'll get someone to arrange your trip itinerary for you. I'll make sure you all feel as if you're coming home."

Wynter wanted to dispel their prejudices. She knew that it would be very difficult, but that was no reason not to do it. The first step was always difficult, but someone had to take that step before others would follow.

At that moment, a university student approached and inclined his head respectfully toward Wynter. "I also heard your speech just now. I hail from the city of Holinthia in the mainland. Ever since I came to attend university in Havenia, I've been faced with a lot of opposition and ridicule.

"I've done my best to refute those people many times, but they only treated me worse as a result. I wanted to do something to change the situation, but I simply didn't have the power or resources.

"I haven't taken any action since then. It wasn't until I heard you coming forward to prove otherwise about the mainland that I finally realized how cowardly I'd been. I didn't dare stand up for the mainland or contribute anything to the cause.

"This time, after I return, I'll gather the mainlanders studying at Havenia University to eliminate the Havenian bias toward the mainland!"

Wynter looked up at him. "Someone has to do it. I believe you'll do that task well."

"Thank you!" The university student then turned around and marched straight in Havenia University's direction. Wynter's words had not only subconsciously influenced him but also instilled a certain determination within him.

Seeing this, Ellen offered, "How about you come have a meal with us, Wynter? You can tell us in detail about all the fun places to visit in the mainland."

Just as Wynter was about to reply, her phone suddenly chimed. She glanced down at it and saw that Wolf had sent her a message.

"Kiaran says he has something to tell you, Boss."

"I'll treat you to a meal the next time we have an opportunity to dine together, Ms. Mette," Wynter said instead, lifting her gaze. "I have an urgent matter to deal with right now."
