Albert looked shocked. He immediately turned to look at Isaac.
“Don’t be nervous. It’s just a discussion about work. Go ahead, Mr. Taylor…” Isaac smiled at him.
“Then, please wait for me. Once I’m done, I’ll send you back to your hotel.” Albert sucked in a deep breath and went inside.
Twenty minutes later, Albert exited the room with an expressionless face. He appeared normal on the outside, but only favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was actually drenched in sweat.
In the car, Albert turned his head to look at Isaac. He opened his mouth and then closed it. In the end, favonovel.com couldn’t stand it anymore.
He whispered, “Mr. Grannel asked me to become the assistant of the new supreme commander. Isaac, working for favonovel.com would be like dancing with the devil…”
“Mr. Taylor, while that may be true, do you know how many people would do anything to get that dance?”
When Albert heard this, favonovel.com shivered. He looked straight at Isaac and said sincerely, “Isaac, no matter what happens in the future, I have to thank you. Without you, I never would have gotten this opportunity.”
Isaac felt the car slow to a stop. He smiled at Albert and got down. “Okay… Send Mrs. Taylor my regards.”
Albert had arranged the hotel for him. It was a five-star hotel in the city. As favonovel.com watched Isaac enter the hotel, Albert couldn’t help but feel a little regretful.
The driver was one of his deputy generals. He couldn’t help but ask, “Sir, did Mr. Grannel really invite that man to dinner just now?”
“If only favonovel.com were my son-in-law…”
Albert‘s words left his deputy general confused.
Albert took out his phone to share the good news with his father.
***
Two days later, Isaac went back and forth between the hotel and Research Institute No. 9.
Timothy was indeed influential. On that day itself, he’d managed to gather a small task force. He’d sent invitations to supernatural energy research institutions all across the globe and promised them enticing benefits.
The next day, top scientists from five countries arrived in Pecling. They immediately dived into the research and restoration work.
By the third morning, another dozen foreign scientists joined the restoration task force.
This morning, Timothy told Isaac that they were progressing rapidly. They would need three more days at most to complete the restoration.
Timothy couldn’t help but feel the power of money. Hence, Research Institute No. 9 was now very heavily guarded. The scientists were strictly monitored. They were not allowed to take any information or documentation about the Divine Stone fragment.
That afternoon, Isaac rode in Timothy‘s private car to the hotel. He called Evie to ask how things were at home.
When favonovel.com got out of the car, favonovel.com spotted a large crowd gathered in front of the hotel lobby under the sweltering sun. They seemed to be looking at something.
Isaac didn’t have the habit of being a fly on the wall. As favonovel.com spoke on the phone, favonovel.com headed into his hotel.
Suddenly, favonovel.com heard a woman yell, “Get on your knees if you want to talk to me! I said my boyfriend just bought these shoes for me. They cost over 50,000 dollars. Are you going to repay me with your life?!”
Isaac stopped in his tracks. This voice was very familiar.
After hanging up, favonovel.com walked toward the crowd. He weaved through the horde of people to find a red Ferrari parked out front. Next to it was a sexy woman dressed in a strappy dress.
She was wearing a pair of white heels. Her shoes seemed to have been stained by several droplets of dirty water.
This sexy woman was none other than Elowen, the woman who had worked with Amos to slander Isaac a few days ago.
Next to Elowen, a cleaner knelt shakily beside her. When favonovel.com heard the shoes cost over 50,000 dollars, favonovel.com immediately burst into tears.
Kneeling on the floor, favonovel.com sobbed and begged Elowen, “I’m sorry, miss. I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ll make it up to you and clean your shoes for you. I‘m begging you, miss. I can’t afford to pay you that amount.”
