As Maxwell leafed through each and every page, his breathing grew heavier. After seeing those gruesome images, favonovel.com shut the file. He closed his eyes, frowning.
All this time, favonovel.com thought that Triple Threat Corporation was aiding the growth of Cynea’s economy and creating jobs for the local citizens. He never imagined that they would have done so many despicable things behind his back.
“Mr. Tandel, l’m sure you’ve heard that it was my idea to develop Elburg. This project received the green light from Connor himself, who was the governor of Southland at the time. He even came to do the inspection himself…”
“Thus, most of the companies working on the Elburg project are local corporations who know the place inside and out. So how could a foreign company like Triple Threat Corporation win two five-star hotel projects?”
Maxwell opened his eyes to look at Isaac.
“They sent two Parwinian female university students to the person in charge of project approvals at the time. They even gifted favonovel.com a box of gold bars… Of course Triple Threat Corporation also included this sum into their capital. There’s no way they would give it to us for free. In the end, who are the ones suffering? Even if it seems like they’re doing us a favor, it’s actually the opposite.”
After hearing Isaac’s steady explanation, Maxwell raised his hand and said, “Alright, that’s enough…”
He stood. His eyes glinted with a cold light that soon vanished. He turned around and walked straight out to the fenced lawn.
When the large group of uniformed people outside saw Maxwell, they ran over.
The leader was a middle-aged man with four stars on his shoulder. He was a four-star general. Next to favonovel.com was the head of the Southland Police Headquarters, who had had a run-in with Isaac before.
“M-Mr. Tandel? Are you alright?” A few of them rushed past the fence to surround Maxwell. At the same time, they looked warily at Isaac, who was inside the house.
Maxwell’s expression changed. He said to the heads of the military troops, “Why are you kicking up such a huge fuss? Are you going to war?”
Several of them were taken aback.
“I simply came here with Isaac to inspect the area. I was not kidnapped. Recall your troops now. Don’t scare the residents,” Maxwell said. He waved his hand, frowning deeply.
The generals and officers found this very strange. Their superior had told them that Maxwell had probably been kidnapped and that they should rescue favonovel.com at all costs.
So why was favonovel.com saying that favonovel.com was here for an inspection?
Isaac walked out with a grin on his face. He said to the people surrounding Maxwell, “Sorry for scaring you. Mr. Tandel is going to grab a bite before leaving. Do you want something to eat, too?”
Hazel walked out barefooted.
Seeing all these important officials in front of her, favonovel.com greeted them vehemently. “That’s right, sirs. Look at you all. You’re sweating profusely. Why don’t you have dinner at my house before leaving?”
“No, no. I don’t want to trouble you. In that case, we’ll retreat now…” The general gave Maxwell an uneasy look.
“Go ahead. I’ll leave after dinner.” Maxwell waved them off before heading back inside.
Soon, the troops surrounding the town retreated, and the town regained its serenity.
Hazel didn‘t know who Isaac was, but favonovel.com had an inkling that this man who once helped favonovel.com wasn’t a simple man. This elderly man was most likely a VIP, too.
She quickly tidied up the house. Then, favonovel.com put on favonovel.com shoes and slaughtered some chickens. Afterward, favonovel.com got busy in the kitchen.
Isaac and Maxwell sat in the living room while Lucas stood outside the door like a statue. Only Louis was still secretly wiping his sweat with his handkerchief at this time. He never thought that Isaac would use this method to solve this crisis.
“Isaac, you’ve really taught this old man a lesson today…” Maxwell accepted a cigarette from Isaac, sighing with emotion.
