Chapter 1377 The Big Shots Frowned Upon Them

The department members watched how the Wray family grew. Within a short period, the Wrays had surpassed the Whitmans, which was not easily achieved by merely acquiring the manufacturing industries.

Besides, they had never actually run any of the manufacturing businesses. Once they acquired the factory, they repurposed it for other uses.

The real profits they earned were all hidden away. No one knew how much Kenton had exactly, but they were certain the Whitmans fell far behind him even at their peak.

The overall state of the Wray family’s funding chain was robust. It seemed they owned some shares in every well–developed company in Hawford, especially in the construction, finance, and entertainment industries.

In Hawford, this family could be considered hyenas.

So, the department members deduced who Kenton’s backing was thanks to

their wits.

Meanwhile, they believed Wynter couldn’t possibly have any other relevant connections, aside from her fiance, Dalton. Even the Yarwood family had to adhere to Hawford’s rules while they were here.

Yet, these “quick–witted” people seemed to have forgotten that a mistake was bound to happen when one made a rash decision.

Kenton had always been strategic, rarely bribing people or exposing his backing. However, he didn’t seem to be thinking straight this time. Now that he had Yvette, who had been reborn and could predict the future, he thought he should take a bold gamble with such a wild card.

“Reclaim all the money that’s out there.” Kenton pressed a button in his office.” That’s right. Bring them all back.”

As much as Adrien thought it was a risky move, he didn’t say anything. It was evident Kenton aimed to make a stunning profit in the stock market. Moreover, he must’ve received insider information regarding that piece of land.

Indeed, he had, and that information came from Yvette.

He sent a message to her, asking her to select a few stocks for him, specifically those that were guaranteed to be profitable.

Faced with Kenton, Yvette secretly panicked and dared not to be careless like before. She could manage if he asked for just one stock, but a few? She lacked the confidence but couldn’t tell him.

As such, she tried her best to recall some old news. Suddenly, she

remembered someone shorted the stock market and made a hefty profit in her past life.

Her countenance lit up, and she composed a message detailing the

instructions and sent it to Kenton. “Trust me, Mr. Wray. This is guaranteed to work!”

When Kenton read the message, he was astonished. “I can’t believe there’s such a strategy. She can predict the future, after all!”

So long as he had Yvette, he could easily crush the Quinnells!

Wynter’s apparent success was nothing more than a superficial illusion. She would be insanely naive if she believed she could join forces with others. There was no such thing as “joining forces” in the business world!

Furthermore, she was oblivious to how many big shots she would offend by doing so. It wasn’t just the capital that would frown upon her actions–even those higher–ups wouldn’t tolerate her presence.

Soon, she would understand exactly whose interests she had interfered with. As Kenton thought of that, he gazed at his phone, which was buzzing endlessly. They were messages from the Aid Society.

Many big shots in the organization were already upset with Wynter’s presence and had been asking Kenton to find a way to resolve the issue quickly. In the meantime, they would offer him covert support no matter what it took.

Then, they inquired about the status of the goods and reiterated, “Do not let the Quinnells affect our supply.”
