Chapter 1542 The Upcoming Outbreak Yvette's voice faltered, and she was wary of Wynter. She hadn't expected that after spilling so much information, the first thing Wynter would ask about was the Winston family. By all logic, Wynter shouldn't have paid attention to the Winston family.
Her gaze flickered as if she was about to lie, but Wynter's soft laughter cut through her thoughts, intensifying her fear.

"The Winston family was originally a small, insignificant aristocratic family. You should also know it's never been ranked among the top families in Kingbourne. They were always just... average. But..." Yvette bit her lip nervously before continuing, "In my previous life, they becthe biggest winners. After the Quinnell family collapsed, the Winston family bought them out.
"Because they always maintained a gentle and humble image, no one considered them a real threat. But once they settled down in Kingbourn, the Winston family quickly expanded into the southern market, covering the Grima, Ardes, and Hawford regions.
"They becthe largest domestic and international supplier of materials, especially excelling in the medical field." Wynter raised an eyebrow. "The medical field?" "Yes." Yvette was slightly hesitant with her reply.
Wynter gestured toward the girl with a parasol, Emilia, behind her.
At that, Yvette shut her eyes tightly and spilled everything she knew. "In about three or four months, a pandemic will sweep across our country. It'll spread through respiratory transmission, supposedly originating from animals.
"The entire nation will cto a standstill, with countless deaths. People will have to work and live from hbecause there's no cure once you contract this virus. People will suffocate to death.

Wynter's expression remained calm as she listened intently. However, the pair of teenagers standing nearby raised their eyebrows slightly.
This type of situation was typically under their Special Unit's purview. Viruses like the one Yvette described wouldn't just appear out of nowhere. They had completed several missions that involved eliminating such threats.
If what Yvette said was true, and something of this scale was going to happen in three to four months, there should have already been signs or plans in motion.
Yet, nothing unusual had been detected. Every item brought into or taken out of the country was subject to rigorous screening and inspection.
They'd intercepted attempts to smuggle soil, seeds, and plants that could damage the country's ecosystem. But this potential virus? There were no warnings or signs.
