Chapter 1381 Here Comes the Villain
Wynter knew what she was up against even before the scandal in Club Solstice emerged. It wasn't just those in the business realm but the intricate webs of interests behind it.
Why had such a club existed for so long without any thorough investigation? Was she the only one who could see the issues? Were the others oblivious to it? Certainly not. The real issue was that those below her either couldn't or wouldn't dare to investigate further.
Everything associated with the Wray family seemed to always have a way of being quietly and efficiently smoothed over.
Wynter wasn't foolish. She knew that the seasoned detectives' seemingly thoughtful remarks were laden with insinuations.
She watched the lively scene before her and pondered how to break the deadlock. Even if the Wray family had fallen, those behind them would remain unharmed if she stayed in her current position.
In reality, the situation had escalated to the point where even a deputy officer had " committed suicide out of fear".
Wynter already had her suspects in mind. However, given their high-profile statuses, this level of exposure would not only just fail to impact them, but it might also alert them to destroy evidence prematurely. Hence, she still had to keep up the pretense.
Wynter was looking for the right opportunity, and the only possible moment lay with Kenton. If the clues he had with him went cold, those behind him would be left unidentified.
Tobias still didn't fully understand why Wynter needed his presence. "Do you really need me to deal with the Wray family? What's the strategy?"
"For the buzz." Wynter's gaze was intense as she drove. "Tobias, you are the only one who can create this level of buzz. Even Rowan wouldn't make the cut.
"Your international influence and your audience's demographics are different. Your fans will keep the topic trending, and its impact will be long-lasting."
The younger generation represented the future. Some people came to understand this, which was why celebrity groups were launched. They were there to capture the youth market.
Wynter was glad. Tobias' dream had always been to become a top-tier celebrity.
While the public might not have a high recognition of him, that wasn't important. What mattered was that a good celebrity could harness fan loyalty to challenge even the mightiest capital. This was a power Wynter had seen only in Tobias.
Tobias had achieved his current status through sheer effort. Despite the constant scandals, no one could deny his popularity or the level of discussion surrounding him.
From the very beginning, he had never relied on the Quinnell family for any support. But of
course, his success was also linked to his fanbase's demographics. After all, being young allowed for limitless possibilities.
Wynter might be able to break the deadlock from this angle. With the power of the people... Wynter seemed to have thought of an idea and turned the steering wheel.
"Tobias, I'll drop you off at the front. Go back to the set with the cameraman first. I still have some things to take care of."
Tobias glanced at Cyrus beside him. "I can't go with you, but he can?"
"You understand, don't you? This cousin of ours is still in pain."
Wynter had always had a keen eye for people.
Cyrus was indeed in pain. After everything that happened today, he had a sense that his grandmother Tamia, who was so closely connected to the Wray family, might not be as he had imagined.
Easton's situation likely wouldn't end here, either. And what about Noah? What would he choose?
Cyrus' intuition about this was indeed quite accurate.
Before Wynter could return, Tamia had already shown up at the door.
Of course, she wasn't there to speak with Reuben. She had heard about the situation in the Chamber of Commerce and knew that Wynter was highly valued by Reuben. If she wanted to talk, it would be with her own daughter, Ophelia.
