Chapter 1499 The Wray Family's Fall
Tamia chuckled. "Right now, you're the one these families are eager to work with. You ended the marriage at the perfect moment."
Ophelia's eyes went wide as Tamia spoke, and the joy within them deepened. She could almost envision the happiness awaiting her future. "Mom, does that mean I can..."
Caressing her hair, Tamia affirmed, "You will no longer be seen as another's wife. You'll simply be known as Ms. Montclair.""
Ophelia could barely contain her excitement. It had never occurred to her that the coveted shares weren't rightfully theirs. Instead, they had resorted to underhanded tactics to acquire them.
Ophelia once worried that all the aristocratic families would side with Wynter. Due to past incidents, the Blaise family and other long-standing enterprises in physical business had started treating Wynter as if she were Gordon.
That was the last thing Ophelia wished to see. How could Wynter continue to live freely after causing the divorce?
In truth, Ophelia had never been fond of her since the day Wynter was born. Everything would have been fine if the Quinnells had just stayed in their lane. But Wynter showed no restraints, and that infuriated Ophelia.
At that point, Ophelia was a far cry from her former self. The saying 'greed knew no bounds' captured her essence perfectly.
"That arrogant girl is biting off more than she can chew, boldly claiming she'll deal with those affiliated with the Wray family. She even declared the Montclairs to be at the top of her list! Well, I'd like to see how she pulls that off." Tamia snickered.
The Wray family had crumbled under financial strains, but Tamia was certain that the Montclairs wouldn't meet the same fate. She was even convinced that the detained Wrays were only "temporarily' ruined.
Tamia reasoned that "that person' wouldn't simply sit back and watch the Wray family being interrogated. At most, only Kenton would be abandoned.
Wynter had gotten her hopes up far too soon. After all, some secrets were never meant to be uncovered. If she dared to act, she would replace herself facing dire consequences. That was a belief everyone shared, including Kenton.
The public was buzzing about the Wray Group's predicament, especially after the company's own accountant published an online report using his real name.
The offenses ranged from money laundering and tax evasion to embezzlement related to unfinished buildings. The victims weren't limited to a single individual but included many normal citizens.
"But where did the money go? And how can a company like this still land major projects?" Those were the questions running in their minds.
It was said that if one rat was found, more were likely hiding nearby. Wray Group couldn't have pulled off such massive operations alone, which meant they had public officers involved.
As Kenton was taken away, his employees were all watching. That said, he doubted he would be imprisoned for long.
Once "that person' got wind of the situation, he would certainly bail him out. After all, his grand plan could be jeopardized if the Wrays were convicted of money laundering.
But when Kenton was led into the interrogation room blindfolded, he realized something was amiss with the protocols.
