American Tax Officer

Watching David's receding figure, Pryce and the other two were filled with despair and helplessness in their gazes. After exchanging glances, they quickly left the scene.

Morgan Bank headquarters building.

Seeing Pryce return, Joshua quickly stood up and approached him with an urgent tone, "Pryce, what exactly did he show you?"

"Mr. Joshua, he showed me the confidential data of our foundation. The data includes the profitability of the foundation and the details of midterm election funding outflow..."

"Damn it!"

Although he had anticipated it, Joshua still cursed with a pallid face upon hearing how dire the situation was.

"Mr. Joshua, I have already sent people to Mo Ang's house and to the places he frequents, but we can't find him anywhere..."

Just as Joshua was still immersed in Pryce's words, the assistant's report made him even more furious.

He kicked over a nearby trash can and cursed, "It must be that damn bastard who colluded with David. That's how our confidential information leaked!"

"Mr. Joshua, although Mo Ang is the manager of the foundation, from what I can tell from the document, our confidential data must have leaked from other channels besides him," Pryce weakly reminded.

In fact, he was right. The foundation's data, besides the part provided by Mo Ang, had been partially obtained by David using the "review" function.

"Find that bastard for me, I want him dead!"

After venting this sentence to his assistant, Joshua turned to Pryce and asked, "So what do we do now? Is there any way to solve this?"

"Although the foundation is not subject to any organizational oversight, the data he now holds is too extensive. We simply cannot stop him from investigating. If the Internal Revenue Service's investigation team really settles into our foundation headquarters and begins their inquiry, one data match, and our foundation..."

Watching Joshua becoming more and more enraged, Pryce dared not continue.

Joshua, of course, understood. After grinding his teeth fiercely, he turned to his assistant and ordered, "Notify everyone, we will meet at Senado Island first thing tomorrow!"

This night was destined to be one that would keep many people awake.

Ah, the foundation, it was a financial cradle cultivated for the inheritance of the descendants of major families since the establishment of the foundation system.

If David managed to find leverage to freeze it, everyone would be spitting blood.

So, in order to find a solution, the members of The Big Three Groups wracked their brains all night.

Come the next day, David officially decreed an edict, demanding that all local branches of the Internal Revenue Service nationwide thoroughly investigate the charitable institutions associated with the foundations implicated yesterday.

At the same time, he also dispatched investigative teams to the banks cooperating with these major foundations, to verify financial dealings.

Meanwhile, on Senado Island, important members of the Freemasonry had all arrived.

"At this juncture, we can no longer sit idly by. We must take the initiative to counterattack, so as not to let our foundation be taken by the Internal Revenue Service!" Soros spoke first.

He had painstakingly managed his operations on Wall Street for many years, naturally establishing his own family foundation.

Although his family's foundation was not among those announced by David yesterday, one would hardly expect any eggs to be intact when the nest is overturned.

Once the breach had been made by David, his family's foundation would naturally not be spared.

"Counterattack? The Offshore Tax Evasion Act has already been legislated and taken effect, and we've placed our main battleground on the midterm elections. How do we counterattack?"

"Yes, our focus is on the midterm elections now, we are utterly unprepared for the foundation matters. What can we counterattack with?"

"No, no, no, I think Soros is making sense. Even though we've focused on the midterm elections, we can't continue to sit back on this issue. None of us want our own family foundations to be seized by David, right?"

"Alright, I admit there is some rationale in what you say, but what do we do now?"

"Yes, he already holds many key pieces of data—our foundation's protective laws are completely ineffective against this..."

Soros' words immediately sparked a heated debate among those present.

"At this point, there's only one solution left!"

"What solution?"

Everyone tacitly stopped their bickering and looked at Soros earnestly.

"With the Offshore Tax Evasion Act in effect, the stock market has been quite turbulent recently. Therefore, I propose that we all sell the shares we hold in major companies, thoroughly inciting market panic and intensify the storm!"

Soros didn't claim absolute authority in other areas, but he considered himself to have a say in the stock market.

After all, his masterstrokes included phrases like the Pound Sterling attack and setting off a financial crisis in Asia.

And for these actions, he had been globally dubbed as the most fearsome big shot and a stock market legend.

As for the current stock market situation, he keenly sensed the opportunity for manipulation.

The stock market panic caused by the Offshore Tax Evasion Act was a normal occurrence.

But, if they were to 'add fuel to the fire,' the situation would be different. By then, the pressure faced by the Internal Revenue Service would be immense.
