The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 467
"Well, what's really going on?" gerald was confused.
“See, this place was originally a construction project. Weston Merchants Holdings was hired to oversee the work about a year ago. Apparently, the developers used less than appropriate quality materials and therefore, there was a collapse around the project area. Over a hundred people were injured because of this, sixty of them were workers! Fortunately, no lives were lost this time!”
"Yes. I heard that the developers ran up the hill last night! The people of Weston Merchants Holdings are definitely in hot water right now. About a dozen people, including Mr. Jung, have been dismissed from their positions, or so I heard! They are waiting to be dealt with at this very moment!” answer the workers.
As Gerald recalled, Mr. Jung is the director of Weston Merchants Holdings. He's been dismissed as well?
After thinking about it for a while, Gerald asked, “Why should the developers run away? Since no lives are lost, compensation is enough, right? Moreover, the main responsibility does not fall on the investor, right?”
“The problem, I've heard that the developers ran out of money some time ago. According to rumors, six months ago to be exact. But it's not important. Right now, we just want to know who to look for! We just want our salary!”
“As for Weston Merchants Holdings, well, someone has to take responsibility for this matter. All of this happens at a critical moment as well. If you've never heard of it, a large group has planned to develop and reconstruct Serene County. Because of the unfortunate events that are happening now, the leaders must be angry. The impact of this accident was truly terrible!”
After hearing the whole story, Gerald finally understood the general situation.
However, he could do nothing to help this matter, even though he was still sympathetic with everyone involved in it.
Gerald then turned his car around and left after thanking the workers.
Along the way, Gerald receives text messages from Zack. It was the same story about the collapse of the building that the workers had told Gerald before. What disaster!
Seeing that Zack had sent a message to him, Gerald took the opportunity to ask him to look for a master who specialized in jade.
Gerald knows that Zack knows more people than he does.
As soon as Gerald returned to the hotel, he took a shower. When she was about to go for dinner for a while, she received a phone call. It was from his father.
"Dad?"
“Nak, you have made an investment in our hometown right? I heard that a building collapsed there. Such a disaster..”
"That's right, even though my group wasn't involved in the matter."
Gerald thought that his father was very knowledgeable.
“Dad, I told you. Uncle Jung had forgotten all about his friendship with you long ago. Why are you still asking me to help him?” gerald replied in a confused voice.
Gerald's father was completely different. The same topic always came up whenever his father called him.
Gerald is constantly reminded to offer the Jung family help if they encounter difficulties.
Why else would Gerald continue to help Leila even though she hated and looked down on him?
However, Gerald has been disappointed with Jung's family since the last time he went to their house. He had also explained to his father about the situation back then.
It left a sour taste in Gerald's mouth and although he knew that Jung's family was in the hot water this time, he didn't really care.
After all, as Uncle Jung said, Gerald must not go to his house to look for it unless something really matters.
Gerald really couldn't be bothered with their families.
“Well, some things cannot be explained easily. By the way, have you met your Aunt Leia?” asked his father, suddenly changing the topic.
Gerald frowned slightly before saying, “Yes, I've met him. Why?"
“To be honest, I've let down your Uncle Jung before. I can't help but blame myself for what happened. Just...no matter how they treat us, please help them whenever you can.” replied Gerald's father with a sigh.
"…What? What are you doing?"
Gerald's surprised.
Could it be that her father and Aunt Leia were having an affair?
Is that the reason why Uncle Jung has always been cold towards the Gerald family?
"Dad? Explain yoirself. Also, what exactly happened to the woman you asked me to look for? The Xara Machamer. Is she and Aunt Leia your women?”
Gerald was unwilling to ask in frustration.
