Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 1242

"Miss Mercer is brilliant! We absolutely cannot take the fall for this."

"Exactly. Let those greedy foreign investors choke on it."

"Yeah, let them suffer in silence with nowhere to complain! Hahaha..."

Even if the world eventually figured out the truth, they would know it was a defensive retaliation against the foreign blockade.

Dominic gave her a firm thumbs-up. "I'll make the arrangements immediately."

He then turned to the rest of the team with a stern expression. "Listen up. Once we leave this room, the exact details of what happened here today cannot be leaked to the public under any circumstances."

The moment their stock market secured the victory, the entire nation knew they had won, but the general public had no idea about the intricate details of the battle.

All they knew was that the balance in their bank accounts had suddenly multiplied by ten.

The entire country erupted in celebration. Those who had donated heavily now found themselves sitting on massive fortunes, decorating their streets and throwing lavish parties to celebrate.

Foreign journalists cornered government officials, demanding answers. "What exactly is going on here?"

The officials smoothly replied, "Our economy was sabotaged by foreign syndicates. The people are just celebrating driving out the leeches."

Baffled, the foreign media took their questions straight to the citizens. "Why are you all so happy?"

The public cheerfully responded, "The leeches have been chased out! Of course we're happy!"

The foreign reporters were left utterly speechless...

Just as Mira and her team were preparing to leave the exchange floor, her phone buzzed. It was James Barlow. The call reminded her that his syndicate, acting as their mole, had likely taken a significant financial hit as well.

She turned to Dominic. "Dominic, don't forget to have the government reimburse James for his losses."

"Understood. Have him send over the paperwork, and we'll compensate him double."
