Chapter 1399

Dalton glanced over with a hint of curiosity, wondering how much stock market knowledge Wynter actually had. After all, when she said she knew “a little“, it usually meant something entirely different from what others might think.

At the dining table, Cyrus was the only one who didn’t know much about her. But when she asked him to do something, he didn’t dare to refuse.

He immediately started pulling strings in his social circles, and within an hour, the news reached Kenton.

Kenton’s smile was unsettling. “Real estate? So, does the Whitman family want a piece of the pie, too?”

“Mr. Wray, it’s just as you predicted. It’s not just about real estate,” Adrien reported while handing him the information. “It seems that Wynter also wants to dabble in the stock market. It’s a good thing you planted the bait with Cyrus from the start.”

This was the first time in days that Kenton seemed to relax. His face was cold and menacing. “Fine. Let them enter the market. I don’t care what they try, but make sure the Quinnell family loses everything in the stock market.”

“Understood,” Adrien replied.

Just as he was about to leave, Kenton stopped him. “Send a few people to have a little ‘chat‘ with that arrogant Ms. Quinnell. After all, if she wants to buy land, she should learn a bit about how things work around here.”

Adrien knew exactly what Kenton meant. He wasn’t about to let the Quinnell family have an easy time.

Kenton’s confidence stemmed from the fact that he held a trump card–Yvette. He didn’t believe Wynter had any chance against him. Besides, he thought the Whitman family would soon have their hands full.

Previously, he had been cautious, especially with the scholarship fund investigation going on.

But now he felt nothing was holding him back, and it was time to make a move. The recent demand for” goods” had been unusual, and finding what was needed wasn’t as easy as it used to be.

Not that he was worried about his “friends” not being accommodating. After all, he still had some incriminating videos from the bar in his possession.

Everyone who had ever been there had something to hide. The challenge was making everything seem legitimate, especially with the current strict hospital inspections.

As Kenton pondered his next steps, an idea suddenly came to him.

Meanwhile, Wynter’s plans to acquire land and dabble in the stock market might have escaped Reuben’s notice, but they certainly hadn’t gone unnoticed by Taylor.

In the business world, proving oneself would take more than just a single success. One needed multiple wins to show that it wasn’t just luck. But Wynter’s bold move made the Wray family scoff.

“Is that it? She’s just like her father.”

“She gets a little success and immediately gets overconfident by buying land and investing in the stock market.”

“She’s just setting herself up to lose money.”

These were the comments circulating in their circles.

As her uncle, Taylor was more direct. “Was this Cyrus‘ idea, or did you come up with it on your own?”

Wynter wasn’t planning on dodging the question. “It wasn’t Cyrus, Uncle Taylor. This is my plan. I won’t lose money by getting into real estate now, but that might not be the case in the future.”

She could foresee that in the future, property would lose its value. But policies would always come from above, and only then would they have an impact.

For example, ordinary people never knew when they might become the next to benefit from urban renewal projects. They wouldn’t know which areas might be designated as special zones or hubs for large–scale development, whether it was an airport or a central transport hub.

While others might not know these things, Yvette, who had lived through it once already, certainly did.

By following the three people Kenton had made contact with, Wynter could roughly figure out where they were targeting.
