Chapter 613
Lucy had been busy all day, completing most of the initial drafts for the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show. However, there were still many details she had yet to refine.
"I guess I'm almost done. I haven't eaten all day. Time to grab some food!" Lucy walked to the employee cafeteria, unsure of what to choose from the array of choices. She checked her phone for any messages from Matthew, but there were none.
She texted him to ask how he was doing, but he did not reply.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Nevertheless, Lucy was understanding. She knew how busy Matthew was at work, so she thought that he was having a hectic day.
Suddenly, she noticed fish and chips from afar, so she hurried over. The sight of it made her tummy growl, so she paid for it and sat down.
...
Meanwhile, at Rankins, the three men were still waiting for Charlie to explain, but Charlie was still deep in thought.
"Charlie, hurry up and tell us. How much longer do we have to wait? We'll miss our chance to turn things around if you don't speak up soon," Matthew could not wait any longer, so he urged Charlie to speak.
"Yeah, Charlie, tell us." Koven was getting impatient too.
Although Hudson was waiting with them, out of respect, he simply looked at Charlie in silence.
Finally, Charlie smiled devilishly and said, "It may be a large-scale project, but there's still a way.
"If the anonymous investor withdraws, we can still look for other investors, but we must make sure that Sunrise Group doesn't get wind of this. Otherwise, it'll catch the attention of Spades, prompting them to investigate.
"This is where it gets exciting.
There's no doubt that they'll tamper with the project by causing fatalities and other issues, but we can leak fake project details to the media while the actual project remains elsewhere.
"They'll be so focused on what's in front of them that they won't even notice what's coming. This way, we can not only catch them red-handed, but it would benefit us too.
"We can change the profit split to 80-20 and leak information about Sunrise Group's manager taking money from both sides. Then, Spades will surely lay low for a while."
Only Matthew and Hudson understood what Charlie meant while Koven drew a complete blank.
"What the heck does that mean?" Koven asked again.
Charlie glanced at him and smiled. "You don't have to know." Then, Charlie turned to the other two and asked, "Do you understand what I'm saying?" "That works." Hudson admired Charlie's ability to come up with such a good plan.
Matthew's silence also indicated his approval.
"Is this the only plan we have? What if we fail? Is there a plan B?" Hudson was still feeling uneasy, so he had to ask.
"This is plan B. Plan A would be to wait for them to make a move. This is the only viable plan, so we'll have
to make do with it." Charlie adjusted his glasses and nodded confidently.
It seemed to be the only way, so Matthew nodded. Hudson
expressed his agreement with the plan as well. Only Koven sat there,
wildered as he did not understand
what was going on.
Perhaps he should stick to designing.
After the discussion, they went back to eating.
