Making 233
In the Wyatt family’s mansion, a vi had been transformed into a memorial hall.
Members of the Wyatt family, along with individuals from de Gate, stepped into the hall one by
one, offering incense and bowing before the portrait of Karl.
Victor, the leader of de Gate, also paid his respects to the deceased and offered condolences to
the Wyatt family.
Karl’s mother cried inconsbly. Benny’s eyes shimmered with a mix of hatred and grief, while
Travis and James had grave and concerned expressions.
After the morning ceremony, Victor, Juline, Travis, and others prepared to board a helicopter to
return to de Gate.
James, Benny, and the Wyatt family’s servants escorted them to the chopper on thewn.
Just before boarding, Victor, with a stern tone, addressed James, James, for deceiving me with
your lies, I should have severely punished you.
“But considering Karl’s sacrifice, I can overlook it for now.
“However, if you fail to secure the new CBD project
in Vista Verde, I will still hold you
ountable.”
James promptly replied with reverence, “Yes, Leader. I will ensure the CBD project is secured and
will not let down your expectations.
Although James was the patriarch of one of the top ten financial groups in Vista Verde, due to
Travis was the senior presbyter of de Gate and the close rtionship between the Wyatt family
and de Gate, he was essentially part of de
Cate
Victor could still punish him.
Therefore, he couldn’t disregard Victor’smands.
Victor nodded and turned to board the helicopter with Juline, Travis, and others.
As the rotors spun, the loud humming of the helicopter grew, and it soared into the sky.
At this moment, of the hundreds of martialists from de Gate around half remained behind to
protect the Wyatt family. while the rest boarded their vehicles.
A long convoy then departed from the mansion.
Once Victor and his group were gone, James, with a stern expression, led Benny, and housekeeper
Bob, to another vi
After settling down in the living room, James turned to Benny and said, “Benny, you heard what the
leader said. We must secure the CBD project no matter what.
“Otherwise, he will still punish us for deceiving him.
“We must avenge your brother’s death and ensure the Field family doesn’t snatch this project from
us,”
“But Dad,” Benny voiced his concern, “with the Star Gate now protecting the Field family, even if we
have de Cate’s martialists on our side, we can’t confront them. How can we persuade the Field
family to give up their bid on the CBD project?”
James‘ eyes shed with a cold, sharp glint. Tve thought about it Even though the Field family is
under the protection of Star Gate now, and de Gate martialists in the mansion can’t confront
them, we can still bring down the Field family from

other angles.
“The CBD project in Vista Verde is worth billions. Graham alone can’t handle it; he has to
coborate with other conglomerates.
54%
The ones that have the closest business ties with the Field family are the Macy family’s Voyage
Group, the Bates family’s Honor Steel Group, and the Jenson family’s Bosch Securities Group.
“If we persuade these three conglomerates not to provide funding and financing channels to the
Field family, then even if Graham attempts to bid for the CBD project, he won’t have the necessary
funds.
“By then, he’ll have no choice but to hand the CBD project over to us.”
“But the Macy, Bates, and Jenson families – these three big financial groups – have always been at
odds with us. Asking them not to cooperate with Graham might not work,” Berny pointed out.
James chuckled coldly. “Heh, you and Bob should visit these three conglomerates and have a chat
with their heads. “Let them know that while the Star Gate might protect the Field family temporarily,
they won’t be there forever. “But our Wyatt family will always have the support of the de Gate.
“If these three financial groups oppose us today by helping the Field familypete for the CBD
project, we will settle scores with not just the Field family but also with them once the Star Gate
leaves. They should weigh the consequences of opposing us.
They shouldn’t wait for disaster to strike before realizing their mistake.”
Hearing his father’s words, a spark ignited in Benny’s eyes. “Dad, I know what to do now.”
“Good. You and Bob should go meet the heads of these conglomerates right away,” James
ordered.
“Understood, Dad.”
Soon after, Benny and Bob left the living room,

Back at the vi, James picked up his phone and dialed a number. “Mr. Caldwell, what’s the current
stock price for the Field family’s Horizon Group?”
“Chairman, the current stock price for the Horizon Group is 2 dors.”
“Instruct our traders to buy arge amount of their stocks. Make a phased purchase totaling 600
million dors.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
After ending the call, a sharp glint appeared in James‘ eyes.
He immediately dialed another number.
“Mr. Anderson, for our joint bid on the CBD project, I need your cooperation on something.”
“Mr. Wyatt, we’re allies in this. Anything you need, just let me know,” a hearty voice of an older man
responded from the other end.
James said, “Our biggestpetitor in this bid is Craham. He’s got the protection of the Star Cate,
which means I can’t use the de Gate’s power against him.
BG
“Therefore, we have to beat him in the business arena.
“I need you
to work with me and purchase 600 million dors worth of shares from the Horizon Group.”
“Mr. Wyatt, you’re ying a high–stakes game this time.”
“Exactly, I want to go big. I not only want the Field family to lose the bid agat, but I also want their
entire family
ruined.”
“Alright, Mr. Wyatt. I’ll instruct my team to buy 600 million dors worth of shares from the Horizon
Group, the elder hesitated briefly on the phone, then agreed wholeheartedly.
“Mr. Anderson, it’s a deal. Do not sell the shares unless I say so.
“Mr. Wyatt, rest assured. I know you want to deal a crushing blow to the Horizon Group’s stocks,
causing a massive plunge in
its value.”
“Good, as long as you understand. Let’s leave it at that.”
After that, he hung up the phone.
Then, James dialed several other numbers. Each call was to ask different business allies to
purchase stocks from the Horizon
Group.
And the amounts were huge, often in the ballpark of 200 million dors or 400 million dors.
Every person he called promptly agreed, eager to align with James‘ ns
After finishing his calls, a dark and menacing glint shone in James‘ eyes.
Those he’d called were all closely allied financial groups and wealthy tycoons.
By getting them to invest vast sums into the Horizon Group, he nned to artificially inte the
stock price. Once it peaked they would then collectively sell off the stock, making a fortune while
simultaneously crashing the stock value.
This would cut off the Horizon Group’s financing avenues from the capital market.
By further pressuring the three major financial groups closely working with the Field family to back
out of their coborations, the Horizon Group would be cornered with no way out.
This was James‘ revenge n.
