Chapter 1496 Found Out Wynter's Secret
"Gentlemen, you've misunderstood my intentions," Wynter continued. "The Wray family will be the first to fall. As for the rest..."
Her gaze landed on a shadow lurking at the back. "Since Mr. Montclair is here, there's no need for me to make a special trip to the Montclair residence. Please inform Madam Wooten that I have my sights set on the Montclair family."
Everyone at the gathering felt the urge to eliminate Wynter after hearing her words. However, it was clear that this wasn't the right moment. With the Wray family facing imminent defeat, they weren't in a position to gain anything from this situation.
It was particularly true for the Montclair family, who were embroiled in a public spat with the Whitman family. In the past, they wouldn't have dared to show themselves, but with their name mentioned, they had to take a stand.
Since the mask had been torn off, they had nothing left to hide. "Let's see what you can do," they retorted.
Their collective sentiment was clear. After suffering losses in the stock market, they were already in a bad mood.
Though they didn't have the same influence as the Wray family, their foundation remained intact. If they joined hands, what could Wynter possibly do against them?
Wynter toyed with her purple sugilite and looked up. "Alright, let's give it a try."
She had met everyone she needed to. Now, it was time to see how many fish she could catch. With that, she walked out without anyone daring to stop her.
Yvette huddled in fear in a corner, terrified of what would happen to her in a moment. She couldn't imagine how these people would treat her.
Her eyes darted around before locking onto Wynter. She had to save herself! Without hesitation, she reached out and tugged at Wynter's sleeve. "Wyn..."
She didn't dare to call Wynter in the affectionate tone she used to. With her shoulders trembling, she looked utterly pitiful.
"Please, I beg you, save me. I'm fine, but Grandma has been worried about me lately. I haven't called her, and I'm afraid that if something happens to me, she won't be able to handle it."
Yvette knew just how to hit Wynter's soft spot. It was almost spot on. Still, she didn't understand Wynter well enough. The more Yvette tried to get under Wynter's skin, the more Wynter would root out the problem.
"Mr. Wray." Wynter calmly reminded him, "Watch your people. Is it that she hasn't harmed you enough, or have you all suddenly developed a kind heart?"
This remark was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire.
Yvette's eyes widened in shock. She never expected that Wynter would still ignore her even after she mentioned Margaret!
Panicking, Yvette glanced at the Chamber of Commerce members who were out for her blood and shouted, "Wynter, take me away now, and I won't tell anyone your secret. Otherwise, you'll end up just like I am today!"
"Oh?" Wynter raised an eyebrow and replied devilishly, "I didn't even know I had a secret."
Yvette stood up, her tone suddenly intense and filled with indescribable hatred. "Stop pretending! Think about who you used to be and who you are now! In the past, no one liked you because I toyed with you.
"You couldn't even make your boyfriend stay, and only Grandma cared about you. Do you not realize how stupid you were? You gave up everything for a man. All you did was go after Charlie.
"It took you a month to learn something, and you still might not master it. And now, you dare to mess with me in the stock market! Wynter, there's something wrong with you!"Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Yvette stood there and shouted as though she had lost her mind.
However, no one in the room, especially the businesspeople, believed what she said. At most, they thought Wynter was just hiding her abilities as they couldn't imagine anything else.
