Chapter 1543 The Winston Family
Yvette couldn''t help but regret not opening a factory rted to the medical industry in her previous life. After being reborn, she had always aimed to develop in the pharmaceutical field, knowing it would be crucial in three or four months.
"Other businesses, especially those in the physical sector, suffered devastating losses. Only industries directly tied to people''s basic needs saw significant growth.
"Countless entertainment establishments went bankrupt. Other than medical supplies, the supermarkets had the highest revenue," Yvette exined in great detail.
She added, "The Winston family solidified theirmercial position during this national crisis, and after that, no other family couldpete with them. Mr. Winston Senior was truly remarkable."
The admiration in Yvette''s tone caught Wynter''s attention.
"Tell me how remarkable he was." Wynter''s words cut straight to the heart of the matter.
Yvette''s gaze flickered for a moment. "Anyone who could build such arge business has to be remarkable."
Wynter approached her. "You know I''m not asking for vague answers."
"Do you believe there are people in this world who can truly practice divination and the Arcane Way?" Yvette responded with a question of her own.
The two teenagers thought to themselves that Wynter did have such abilities, though she had always promoted respect for science due to her work position.
Wynter merely raised an eyebrow, calm and unruffled. "Superstitions shouldn''t be relied on. But since you''ve managed to be reborn, I can believe in other possibilities as well."
Yvette had been trying to probe Wynter''s limits, but she didn''t expect such a response. It was true that she had been reborn, but it was also clear that the person in front of her was not the original Wynter. Was this some sort of possession?
Yvette didn''t dare to voice such thoughts aloud. Instead, she said, "That man gave me an unsettling feeling. He seemed like someone on the verge of death, but he was still tougher than anyone else.
"His cheeks were sunken, yet his eyes were sharp. He even said my fate was unusual the first time he saw me."N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
Even recalling the encounter made Yvette shudder. She feared Clyde and always had the feeling that the person standing before her wasn''t truly alive.
Wynter felt more certain that something was indeed wrong with the Winston family as she listened to Yvette''s description. Without saying much more, she raised her hand, signaling for her subordinates to take Yvette away.
Yvette suddenly snapped to her senses. "You promised to let me go!"
"At least you won''t die if you go with them." Wynter''s voice was steady and cold. "The Wray family has fallen. Do you think your days out here will be easy?
"You also mentioned that Mr. Winston Senior noticed something unusual about you. Are you not worried that he''ll find you and silence you forever? After all, not only do you hold the information he wants, but you also know his endgame and strategies.
"If I were him, I wouldn''t let you leave Hawford alive. That way, all the knowledge about the impending pandemic would remain a secret, and the Winston family could truly be a colossal enterprise in four months."
Yvette wasn''t a fool. She had manipted people many times before. Wynter''s words quickly brought her to a realization.
Going to the Winston family now was indeed as good as walking into a trap. Since she had told Wynter the secret, she''d lose her only leverage. Clyde wouldn''t allow someone like her to live and would eliminate her to safeguard his future.
From initial resistance, Yvette was now desperate to have the two teenagers take her away.
"Is wherever you''re taking me safe? You have to understand that the Winston family has connections with that man from the province," Yvette asked nervously, but no one answered her question.
Yvette had no idea about the Special Unit''s existence.
