Reuben, on the other hand, was already frowning. Leaning on his dragon cane, he rose from the couch. He was always protective, especially when it cto Wynter.
He couldn't understand what kind of trouble such a well-behaved child like Wynter could possibly have caused. Reuben had been through the business world's ups and downs long enough to sense something was wrong even before the authorities spoke. This was clearly an act of retaliation -something Wynter had recently done must have affected someone's interests.

"If you're taking someone into custody, you need to have your body cameras on. It seems you haven't activated them." The two officers had known before they arrived that the Whitman family wasn't just any ordinary family. They couldn't simply take someone away without due process, especially with Reuben's background.
Although his political connections had diminished over time, he was still a highly educated man, and they didn't want to offend a powerful family-run enterprise like the Whitman family. But today, they had no choice but to take Wynter.
"Mr. Whitman Senior, I'll activate the body camera right now," one of the officers said. "We're taking Ms. Wynter in for questioning because there's been a report accusing her of intentionally manipulating the market and stock prices.
"Here's the arrest warrant. We hope you will cooperate with us, Mr. Whitman Senior." "Market manipulation?" Reuben's face darkened. Wynter had indeed made significant profits in the stock market recently, so someone might be using this as a pretext to frher.
Seeing that Reuben wasn't responding, one of the officers showed him the footage they had obtained.
"This is from the stock exchange, recorded a week ago. It shows Ms. Wynter together with Mr. Yarwood. They made a large cash purchase of gold shares, which gave the impression that the stock would inevitably rise." Not only did Reuben see the footage, but so did Marie, who had rushed down from upstairs. She looked at Wynter, and her eyes were filled with worry.
Since the officers had this footage, it meant that Wynter's arrest was legal and justified. There was no way to stop it.

Wynter embraced her gently and said softly, "Mom, it's okay. It's just an investigation and part of the process. As for Sebastian, tell him not to worry too much. Stay calm. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. A single video isn't enough to convict me."
At this, she even let out a small laugh.
"If I were truly guilty, Dalton would have to be taken in for questioning, taken in ford too. After all, we're both in the video. The Yarwood family's stock investments have always been above board, so there's nothing to fear." Hearing Wynter's words, Marie sensed that she had splan in mind, especially when Wynter gave her a quick, reassuring wink.
She gently caressed Wynter's face, as if holding something precious. "Don't get hurt. We will take care of everything."
"Okay," Wynter replied, feeling the purest form of motherly love. She picked up the coat that had been! placed to the side. Her eyes flickered with an unreadable depth, making it impossible to tell what was going through her mind.
