The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1484

No matter which department the employees belonged to, they all felt a mix of disbelief and anxiety. If the company's accounts truly had no money left, what would happen to them?

Within just half an hour, trending topics about the Wray family became overwhelming. Initially, there were threats of issuing legal notices, warning netizens not to spread rumors.

But then, a bombshell hit. "Kenton Wray embezzled company funds for personal stock trading, and the stocks he held have plummeted!"

The entire Chamber of Commerce was in turmoil. What was bad wasn't stock trading, but the fact that Kenton had used his company's funds.

If the online rumors were true—that Kenton's stocks had crashed—then the Wray family's cash flow was definitely in trouble.

People in the business world weren't fools. Everyone had their own ways of finding out the truth. After a little digging, it became clear that the information circulating online was almost certainly true.

"Those who followed him seem to be having financial issues these two days as well," someone from the Chamber of Commerce remarked.

"It serves them right."

Businesspeople who had long been oppressed by Kenton finally had the chance to voice their opinions.

"He even delayed paying his workers."

"Let's not dwell on it. It looks like the Wray family is done for this time."

"Thank god I didn't take his side." This was what some of the Chamber of Commerce members were relieved about.

"Do you know who's the luckiest? Orson Blaise, who followed Ms. Quinnell. Not only did she save his applesauce factory, but it has become a national brand now. Even my grandson comes across them when he's online."

"That's not all. Haven't you heard? Others scoffed at Ms. Quinnell when she was trying to acquire land. But Orson invested a modest sum, and she brought him in as a shareholder. The Blaise family is set for life!"

Everyone knew how things for Wynter had turned around, especially when contrasted with Kenton's downfall.

The workers didn't fully understand the legal intricacies, but they knew one thing for sure. After three long months, someone was finally standing up for them! There was a real chance they might get their wages back.

"Xavian, that girl was right! Her words had come true!"

Yes, it had. Everything Wynter said was coming true.

It wasn't just the Wray family that was affected. When Tamia received the news, her hand, which had been holding a bowl of lobster bisque, trembled uncontrollably.

Very soon, a crash was heard. The delicate porcelain bowl shattered on the floor.

"What did you say? Say it again! What happened to the Wray family?" Tamia's expression was twisted with rage, her face terrifying to behold.

The person delivering the message stammered as he repeated his sentence, "The Wray family is under investigation. Most of Wray Group's funds are tied up in the stock market, and they might not be able to get them out."
