The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 1945

After watching Wolf and Jules walk away, Wynter continued, "I need you two to exchange these cases of cash for those two stocks at the exchange center later. Firstly, we want to create momentum. Secondly, we want to make the hesitant parties make up their minds."

Driscoll nodded. "I've already used all the working capital I have on hand to buy into those stocks."

Antoine echoed, "Me, too. I didn't manage to buy much, though, because I haven't had enough time to realize my assets."

"It's enough. Leave the rest to me," Wynter said neutrally. "When we turn a profit, you'll both earn several times the amounts you invested in return, so you won't suffer any losses."

Driscoll and Antoine exchanged glances. "We'll head to the exchange center, then."

Wynter nodded. "Okay."

So, Driscoll and Antoine proceeded to leave for the exchange center, followed by several people carrying the four cases of cash between them.

Dalton watched them walk away, saying, "You're second to none when it comes to stock trading."

Wynter blinked. "Those foreign forces rely on financial power to crush their opposition. I'm just taking advantage of that. Once the masses come together as one, they won't be able to control the stock market any longer. It doesn't matter how much money they have."

Dalton chuckled. "Then, next…"

"We increase our stakes!" Wynter declared, looking up at him. "This time, I'm going to make them fork over however much they invest into this."

Meanwhile, as expected, many people recognized Driscoll and Antoine as they approached the exchange center.

"Aren't those two Driscoll Maynerd and Antoine Chamberlain, the heads of their respective families? Why are they also here at the exchange center?"

"Could it be that the rumors were true?"

"Let's observe them first and see what they do."

After seeing Driscoll and Antoine, the hesitant parties seemed to gain a hint of confidence.

Driscoll and Antoine walked straight into the exchange center. "We'd each like to invest one case of cash into MIRXES and ZENTRIX Holdings stocks, respectively."

As soon as the words left their mouths, the bodyguards behind them placed the four cases of cash in front of the trader.

The trader, who had also recognized them, asked, "Would the two of you like to reconsider? After all, these two stocks—"

Driscoll shook his head. "Just make the purchase."

Antoine said solemnly, "I agree with Mr. Maynerd."

The trader didn't attempt to dissuade them any further. He picked up the cases of cash and asked the employees nearby to start counting the money.

"Let me take you to the reception area to rest for a while," offered the trader, sweeping his hand out in an inviting gesture.

So, Driscoll and Antoine followed him into the reception area.

Seeing this, everyone in the reception area started discussing feverishly among themselves.

"Even these two big shots came to buy those two stocks in person…"

"We can't hesitate any longer! Why are we still dithering when even those two are here? Let's go!"

"I'd also like to purchase 200 thousand dollars' worth of MIRXES and ZENTRIX Holdings stock, respectively!"

"Me, too! I'd like to buy 300 thousand dollars' worth!"

Everyone scrambled to invest in the two stocks. The stock market would be closing for the day soon, after all. It'd be too late for regrets if they were to miss the purchase window.

The trader paused. "Please wait for your turns. I know you're all anxious, but please calm down!"

That was the benefit of having someone lead the charge. Not only would the others' doubts be dispelled, but they would even be spurred into buying the stocks.

As they sat in the reception room, Driscoll looked at Antoine with a hint of confusion. "You would never have done something like this before, Antoine. Why do you trust Ms. Quinnell so much now?"

"It's because she's a Quinnell," Antoine replied as he took a sip of water. "If not for the Quinnell family, I would never have been able to set foot in Havenia, nor would the Chamberlain Group exist."

Driscoll nodded. "I see."

It was Antoine's turn to ask, "Why do you trust her, too?"

Driscoll smiled wryly. "It shames me to admit it. I'm sure you're aware that she was the one who cured my daughter's illness. I was also shocked to learn of her true identity afterward.

"In truth, all of that was possible thanks to the head of the Yarwood family, and this time was no exception. I had my doubts about Ms. Quinnell's decisiveness, but it relieved me to see Mr. Yarwood take action as well."

Antoine said seriously, "You may not be aware of her abilities, but I am. After Mr. Quinnell Senior passed away, the Quinnell family's status plummeted greatly. Although they were still ranked among the major families in Kingbourne, they didn't have as much power and influence as they used to.

"After that, I heard that she stabilized the Quinnell family's position as the number one family in Kingbourne. Not only that, but she also brought the Chambers of Commerce, once owned by Mr. Quinnell Senior, back under her family's authority. Those feats alone filled me with great admiration."

Driscoll turned to look at him. "Based on what you've said, Ms. Quinnell is indeed a capable person. Has she also come to Havenia to wrest back control of the Havenian Chamber of Commerce, then?"

Antoine nodded. "It's Mr. Quinnell Senior's last wish."

Hearing that, Driscoll raised an eyebrow. "I heard that the Havenian Chamber of Commerce is currently headed by Charles Boso. That means the Chamber is in foreign hands, so it might not be easy to get back."

"I believe in Mr. Quinnell Senior's choice," Antoine replied, looking up. "I also believe in Ms. Quinnell's ability. She'll definitely get the Chamber back into the Quinnells' hands."

Driscoll couldn't help but ponder the situation. In all the time he'd known Antoine, he'd never seen him believe in someone so firmly.

On the other hand, he hadn't interacted much with Wynter himself. He didn't understand her very well, so he felt a little ill at ease.

His thoughts drifted to Dalton, who was accompanying her, and his gaze sharpened. For the head of the Yarwood family himself to be following her around, she definitely wasn't any ordinary person.

He took a deep breath and said, "I've been rather narrow-minded. Foreign forces recently united to deal Havenia a devastating blow. If they're allowed to have their way, Havenia will be well and truly doomed.

"Ms. Quinnell's actions this time aren't just for a simple operation's sake—she's going to save Havenia from disaster."

Antoine nodded. "I'm willing to believe in such a magnanimous person."

Driscoll glanced sideways at him. "Your gaze is still as sharp as ever, Antoine."

At that, Antoine waved a dismissive hand. "That's not the entire reason. More importantly, she came to Havenia in order to bring us old Chamber members home."

Driscoll felt a sense of admiration well up in his chest. "How nice it is that someone still cares for all of you."

Meanwhile, Wynter observed the actions of the people within the exchange center from outside. "They should've already completed their task. Those who were on the fence have joined the queue."

"I know," replied Dalton.

He was sitting to the side, a laptop balanced on his thighs. There was an arrangement of analysis charts displayed on the screen.

Wynter glanced at him. "Are there any issues?"

Dalton nodded. "Unsurprisingly, after the stock market closes today, Prosperity Holdings and Pacific Energy stocks will take a plunge. The money invested in these stocks will then find its way into those people's hands.

"However, we're the ones in control of MIRXES and ZENTRIX Holdings stocks, and their plan has failed."

Wynter smiled wryly. "They wanted to suppress the prices of MIRXES and ZENTRIX Holdings stocks while raising those of Prosperity Holdings and Pacific Energy.

"By the time the stock market reopens next week, the money they earned from Prosperity Holdings and Pacific Energy stocks will have gone into making up for their losses on MIRXES and ZENTRIX Holdings."
