Chapter 435:
“How did the clarification go?” Xavier asked, his tone filled with concern.
The staff member quickly responded, “These influencers have huge, loyal audiences. As soon as their videos went live, public opinion shifted fast, and the stock price is already back to normal p>
Xavier let out a relieved sigh upon hearing the update.
He turned to Helena, and it hit him—despite her lack of interest in business, she clearly had a natural gift for it.
Xavier pictured how Alden would have dealt with the situation and figured it probably wouldn’t have been much different from Helena’s approach.
“Is that really true?” Rylan asked, his voice full of disbelief, grabbing the staff member who had come to report and gritting his teeth.
The man, taken aback, nodded anxiously.
As Rylan’s voice echoed outside, several executives of Star Wish Investments came out to see what was going on. When Alden took control of the original Wilson Group, many of the old staff members were brought into the management team at Star Wish Investments. Everyone who had come out now was familiar with Rylan—they were part of the old Wilson Group.
Helena realized that Rylan couldn’t have caused all this chaos on his own. He must have worked with some former Wilson Group employees who had joined Star Wish Investments.
With that in mind, Helena scanned the small crowd with a sharp look. Her voice, usually smooth, now carried a hint of pressure as she said, “Though my relationship with Alden hasn’t been made public, I’m sure you all recognize who I am, don’t you p>
Helena’s connection to Alden was kept a secret from the public. But it was well-known among the wealthy families in the city and the executives of Star Wish Investments. Of course, the former Wilson Group members knew who she was. They gave a respectful nod and called her “Mrs. Wilson p>
Once her identity was clear, Helena spoke in a firm tone. “With Alden absent, the company now falls under my control. I trust you all understand that the Wilson Group is history. You now work for Star Wish Investments p>
Once she finished speaking, she looked at Rylan and Maisie, then addressed the group firmly. “From now on, no one without a Star Wish Investments badge is allowed in. You’re also not to have any dealings with them. Can you handle that?” The group hesitated, not sure how to react.
Rylan, realizing her intentions, snapped back angrily, “Who do you think you are? Alden might be gone, but there are vice presidents and major shareholders here p>
“What makes you think you can take control?” Rylan’s voice dripped with disbelief, and the former Wilson Group members exchanged wary glances at Helena.
Helena simply smiled, saying nothing.
A short while later, Xavier moved forward and spoke up. “Mr. Wilson has already signed an authorization letter. While he’s away, all personnel and business decisions at Star Wish Investments are under Mrs. Wilson’s authority.” With that, he pulled out a document and held it up for everyone to see.
