Chapter 1645 You Might Deceive Us
Upon studying Julius' expression, Wynter affirmed that he was telling the truth he had no idea about the organ auction. If that were the case, why did the trace lead to the current location? Wynter believed she needed time to think things through and verify the details.
Meanwhile, Edison and his associates had begun to stir trouble for the Whitman family.
While both Noah and Taylor were busy handling company matters, a crowd suddenly gathered at the company's front door.
Unable to stop them, the security guard quickly called the reception. "There's a group of clients at the door. They seem to be accusing us of deception and demanding to terminate their contracts."NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
The receptionist relayed the news to Noah through the hotline, and the brothers rushed downstairs. Amidst the chaos, someone in the crows noticed Noah and called him out, turning everyone's attention to him.
At the same time, Reuben had been alerted of the incident and urgently instructed Mathias to send him to the company.
Confused by the sudden riot, Noah urged the crowd to quiet down and share their intentions.
A middle-aged man replied, "Seeing how your niece swindled our money through the stock market, we worried that the Whitmans might be just as dishonest. After a discussion, we've decided to terminate our contracts."
"He's right. While it was a pleasure working with you, we can't shake off our doubts since that incident. After all, that niece of yours is still in prison," someone echoed.
"I have to hand it to her. The way she manipulated the stock market has caused us nothing but suffering. It's been one disaster after another!" another complained.
When one voiced their complaints, the others quickly followed in. They were all worried that Noah would deceive them as well and demanded to terminate their contracts.
"I understand your concerns. On the Whitman family's behalf, I assure you, we won't be swindling anyone. "Additionally, Wynter has never manipulated the stock markets or defrauded the Cascadians as the rumors said. She's simply assisting with an investigation," Noah stated calmly.
Even so, the crowd remained skeptical. They had invested a huge fortune in the stock market, only to end up with nothing.
After a brief hesitation, one of the Whitmans' long-time partners stepped forward. "We've had a longstanding relationship with the Whitmans, but we can't help feeling anxious.
"After all, we've invested so much in your projects. Profit aside, what if it all ends in a loss? We wouldn't have gathered here if Mr. Whitman Senior had given us an assurance."
Coincidentally, Reuben had arrived at the door and overheard the conversation. He spoke with resolute certainty." Rest assured, the Whitman family will never swindle you out of a single penny!"
Upon hearing his gravelly voice, everyone turned toward Reuben and heaved a sigh of relief. "If Mr. Whitman Senior says so, we'll place our trust in you again. However, I suggest we hold off on the projects until Wynter is released. We're not entirely at ease with her still behind bars."
Walking to Noah's side, Reuben declared, "All of you have been long-time partners with the Whitman family. You should have faith in our integrities. As for Sevie, there will be news about her soon. For now, please return and wait patiently."
