A Woman Worth Billions Dated the Wrong Brother novel Chapter 283

A system

Amber POV

The next phase of our plan began quietly.

Neither Jason nor I believed in making loud announcements.

If we were going to dismantle the investors who had tried to bargain with our children’s futures, we would do it the same way they had tried to manipulate ours.

Silently.

One company at a time.

The first week was dedicated entirely to research.

Jason focused on financial transactions while I analyzed ownership structures.

At first, everything looked ordinary.

Each investor owned one or two successful companies.

Some had hotels.

Others had logistics firms, manufacturing plants, or construction businesses.

Individually, nothing stood out.

Together…

A pattern emerged.

“Jason.”

He looked up from his laptop.

“You need to see this.”

He walked over, coffee in hand, and leaned over my shoulder.

I enlarged the ownership chart.

“What am I looking at?”

“The surnames.”

He frowned.

“The companies are registered under different family names.”

“They are.”

I highlighted several names.

“The Browns.”

“The Harrisons.”

“The Clarks.”

“The Millers.”

The Owens.”

“They’re all different.”

“They were.”

Jason immediately understood.

His expression became serious.

“They’re not anymore.”

I nodded.

I continued opening company after company.

Hidden behind layers of shell corporations and investment funds, every path eventually led to the same destination.

The Vincent Group.

Not Vincent Corporation.

Not Vincent Holdings.

The Vincent Group.

A massive network that had quietly absorbed dozens of influential families over several generations.

Some through mergers.

Others through debt.

Some through marriage.

Others through blackmail.

“They’re not one family,” I whispered.

“They’re a conglomerate.”

Jason slowly sat down beside me.

“They’ve been building this for decades.”

“No.”

I corrected.

“For centuries.”

Every family that disappeared from public influence hadn’t vanished.

They had simply become part of the Vincents..

Their names remained on paper.

Their companies continued operating.

But the decisions…

The money…

The power…

Always flowed upward.

Toward Alexander Vincent.

I leaned back in my chair.

“This isn’t a family.”

Jason nodded.

“It’s an empire.”

For the first time, I truly understood what Governor Henry had meant.

The Vincents weren’t trying to conquer countries anymore.

They already had.

Just differently.

Not with armies.

With contracts.

Three days later…

They struck back.

Jason walked into my office carrying his tablet.

“We have a problem.”

I immediately stood.

“What happened?”

“Our construction division.”

He handed me the reports.

One shipment delayed.

Then another.

Steel.

Concrete.

Copper wiring.

Industrial glass.

Heavy machinery.
