The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1461 Aimed to Embarrass

Settle the score? Who should they settle the score with?

The Chamber of Commerce members, now devastated, were most eager to settle scores with the person in front of them. If it weren't for Kenton, they wouldn't have become so fixated on stocks!

The member who had just broken down had abandoned his company's business and spent all his time online. It was all because he had believed Kenton's claim that these three stocks would soar!

However, none of them dared to directly confront Kenton. They could only clench their fists and look down with expressions of rage.

Despite the severe losses, not everything was lost. According to the stock prices, each of the three stocks was still worth six to seven dollars. If they could withdraw now, they might salvage a third of their assets.

But the problem was they couldn't withdraw! They had to wait until Friday to do so!

One of them was still clinging

hope. He looked up and murmured, "The drop today was severe... but maybe

it will bounce back a bit tomorrow."

However, no one responded to this optimistic thought. They all knew that once such a steep drop occurred, it would likely continue for three or four days. Moreover, each stock transaction came with high fees.

Some were already despondent. Unlike Kenton, who still had his company, their funds were tied to their companies' survival. A financial issue could lead directly to bankruptcy.

But Kenton had his own secrets. His face was pale as he glanced at the stock market charts again. Certain matters were best kept from this many people.

Moreover, he anticipated that these people would likely become his problems shortly. With their severe losses, they were no longer in a position to stand by him

Kenton looked at the Chamber members with a facade of concern. 'It's not as dire as it seems. Money can still be earned. You all should go back and wait for news. I'll handle the stock market."

Not everyone believed Kenton's reassurances. However, they had no choice but to leave.

At the very least, the company's operations needed to appear normal. They couldn't let anyone know about their massive losses. Otherwise, their company would see their downfall even quicker.

Yet, as they were leaving, one person said, 'Mr. Wray, we've been through thick and thin together over the years. You won't leave us in the lurch, right?"

"Of course not. What kind of nonsense is that?" Kenton frowned, seemingly angry at the question.

That person took his word for it. "Then I'll wait for your good news, Mr. Wray!"

Kenton waved his hand.

It wasn't until everyone had left that he showed his true feelings. "What the heck was he talking about? Following me through thick and thin over the years?

"They wouldn't even be doing so well in the first place without me! Are they really expecting me to cover for them now that they are back to square one? What a joke."

Adrien walked in just in time to hear this. "Mr. Wray."

"Have Cassian come see me. Tell him I need to discuss something with him," Kenton instructed Adrien. "Also, immediately cut ties with some of our business partners. Those who just walked out, you know who they are.

"If their companies come looking for project payments, delay them as much as possible. We can't support these companies financially anymore."

"Understood." Adrien, although didn't invest, was still involved in the whole stock market scheme. He knew that those from the Chamber of Commerce and Kenton would not be able to pay off their debt.

So, they needed Cassian to come back resolve this issue. Otherwise, Kenton might face serious problems.

Cassian, who was cooking at that moment, received the message from Adrien and saw the news about Kenton's massive losses in the stock market. He didn't bother to respond.

As a finance professional, Cassian knew exactly why Kenton wanted to see him. He had already submitted his resignation, and the company had approved it.

He wasn't foolish enough to return to the company now and take the fall for Kenton. Instead, he needed to prepare for the worst!
