Chapter 163: In Danger
Chapter 163: In Danger
At Wilson Group.
Oliver sat staring at his laptop screen. He couldn’t believe what he was reading and didn’t know how long he had been sitting. As his mind blanks from being too shocked by what he had found out.
"Is it because of this that Rose is desperate to acquire a trash company?" Oliver says to no one. Trying to keep his mind sane. "But, how did she know this? Does she have an insider there who tells her?"
After busy searching for the correct answers to the questions that popped up in his mind, none of the solutions that had been suggested satisfied him. Oliver pinches his brow, feeling a sudden headache. It felt strange if Rose knew there was a secret behind Rapid Realty. A vast secret that can bring bloodshed if the people behind the bankruptcy of this company are vicious.
"This must be just a coincidence, right!? Rose is just lucky...." Oliver stood from his seat, looking at the street below, trying to calm his shocked mind. If Rose is lucky she bought Rapid Realty and got Gold Mine, her luck can inevitably bring her a disaster.
"That girl probably didn’t know about this..."
Oliver took his cell phone. Wanted to dial Rose’s number. However, he gave up his intention after reading the incoming text from her. Rose informs him that she will soon fly back to the capital.
He sat back behind his laptop. His hands began to type fast, trying to find out who knew about the treasure. He had to do something to protect the Wilson Group, himself, and Rose. He was sure in the next few weeks or months, this news would come out and shake Astington.
Oliver finger dancing on the keyboard. After a few minutes of focus, his computer screen turned black. All the numbers and letters on the screen turn red, as well as the keyboard light that comes out red. The light looks like the keyboard computer used by professional gamers.
Then, a string of codes appears so fast on Oliver’s laptop screen that his finger doesn’t stop typing while his eyes focus. If someone or something is present in his office room, he may not notice it because he is so immersed.
After some time, his finger stops typing, and at the same time, the laptop screen returns to normal.
"This is the first thing I can do to protect the Wilson group...." Oliver took a deep sigh. He erased all traces of the company that discovered the gold mine. Then he also erased the document related to that land from all digital platforms.
His next step is must find a way to silence those who know about this. He already has that list of people who know. But the problem is, he didn’t have those capable people who could carry this kind of job.
Oliver slowly rose from his seat and stood near the glass wall. Drowning in his deep thoughts.
He must discuss this matter with someone. He knows someone who can help him, but he hasn’t contacted this person in a long time. And as far as he knows, this person is very mysterious. No one could find or trace this person unless this person wanted to. Oliver had no other choice but to contact this guy. He needs some help, or their life will be in danger.
Oliver strongly believed projects like this could spark bloodshed. What’s making this worse is that before getting this project, a few people had already moved behind the scenes to acquire Rapid Realty. Because he interfered with his hacking abilities, the Wilson Group won the auction.
"Did Rose know they were in danger? Playing with fire with Rapid Realty?" Oliver smirks. That girl is so innocent and naïve. She certainly would not have guessed it. She might think everything will run smoothly, and her competitors won’t try to retaliate against her plan. Yes, in her mind, she might only plan about this project’s funding and profit, not the scary consequences of acquiring it. Damn it, Rose!
Being immersed in his deep thoughts, Oliver suddenly heard someone talking to him, "Oliver, can we talk?" He looked at the door and was surprised to see James Stuart, with his curly hair looking neat standing in front of the wide-open door.
"Sure!" Oliver gestures to James to sit on the couch. After sitting in front of James, he asked him what he needed.
"It’s about Rapid Realty. I want to confirm the payment with Rose, but she is unreachable. So, I’d like to ask your opinion before I pay the full payment." James was worried for a few minutes. He tried to contact Rose, but strangely her cellphone was not active. Likewise with Sam’s cell phone.
"So, you want to complete the payment?"
"Yes! The payment deadline is today, till 11 AM. However, I want to make sure again before I proceed."
If James had asked him before he found out about the gold mine, he’d probably have asked him to wait till Rose came. From the start, he wasn’t very enthusiastic about Rapid Realty either. The company will not be able to give them benefits in the next few months after they take over. But now it’s different after he knows about the Gold Mine.
"You can proceed now! The sooner you finish, the better!"
"Alright, I will do as you say." James immediately leaves Oliver’s office. He had to go to the bank right now. But suddenly, James remembers Sam. He hasn’t seen him since yesterday. "Oliver, do you know where Sam is?" Asks James.
"Sam? No, I haven’t seen him since he left Vale city a couple of days ago. Looks like he caught up with Rose in East City." Last night when he returned to the capital, he flew alone. Sam had been missing since Rose and Evan left the hotel. It was annoying because he just left without saying goodbye.
"Rose, come to the office, right?" James asks again.
Oliver glanced at his watch, "Yeah, I think so. Her plane should have landed by now....." He returned to his desk after seeing James leave his room. There’s something he wanted to do now. To contact the man who can help them.
