Master Charlie Was Tricked By A Woman

Chapter 204 – No Longer Her



York Charlie rushed to the place of the collapse, in front of him the wreckage, sand and stones rolled about, even the steel bars hidden in the cement were exposed, his heart lifted up, all his calmness and rationality no longer existed, the only thing in his mind was that familiar face.

Looking around, one by one, the workers stood around in their blue uniforms, York Charlie could barely see their faces, and even less hear what they were talking about.

There was no such person! There wasn’t! She really was gone!

York Charlie had initially taken a chance that either she had left, or that she had gone to her car. But the site was very empty, especially after the collapse, and the scene around him was unmistakable. Just as he was picking up his cell phone to make a call and walking toward where he had parked, Manager Pete suddenly followed him.

He said, “President! It’s no good! A worker just said Miss Capra is buried! He saw it with his own eyes!”

York Charlie’s footsteps paused, the cell phone he was dialing still attached to his ear, the sound of it beeping without end, making one’s heart beat faster, and Manager Pete’s words made him pause in his steps toward the outside, and then slowly and painstakingly turn back to look at the place where the debris was piled up again.

The heart in his chest kept sinking all the way down, as endless as the dialed phone in his ear.

“Where’s the fire call? Called?!” York Charlie’s voice was deep and cold, and Manager Pete, who stood beside him, and the onlookers of the workers found it frightening.

Manager Pete rushed to the phone while York Charlie’s cell phone kept dialing Blanche Capra’s number, and he didn’t dare drop it for a minute for fear of missing something.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“President,” Manager Pete said as he finished his call and came over, “they said they’d be there in thirty minutes.”

York Charlie looked around at the workers standing around, frowning and sinking his voice, “Listen up everyone! There are people buried underneath right now, can’t wait for the firemen to get here, start digging now!” Said pointing to the side of the carts, shovels and the like, he himself was walking over to get the tools.

President are digging up, the surrounding workers are not inhuman people, know that buried people below is also very anxious. However, a few people just followed the hands digging, someone said loudly, “Now the situation is so dangerous, how do we dig? Maybe it will collapse again, then what?”

York Charlie turned a deaf ear to these words, and some of the workers who were ready to start digging already hesitated, while another person beside him said, “If it wasn’t for the problems with the materials bought by the company, how could it have collapsed? It’s you people who do whatever it takes to save money! We were already in danger of losing our lives when we were working in a project that didn’t pass the quality inspection, but luckily the people from the Quality Inspection Bureau came and stopped the work today, or else we would have been the ones buried underneath!”

As more and more such voices are heard, the workers present are also getting more and more agitated, targeting the company’s corruption, the collapse of the project is self-inflicted, “People have to be saved! But we have to wait for the firemen to come! It’s dangerous for us to act without authorization!”

Manager Pete was in a hurry.

He was the project manager of this project, and the problem with the quality of the building materials was also his fault. Although he was verbally explaining his difficulties to York Charlie, but in fact, York Charlie was right in suspecting that in fact, it was just his excuse. It wasn’t that the original distributor had run out of stock, but that he had intentionally bought cheap goods!

In order to make some money out of it, Manager Pete did so. He thought that the material was just not good enough, the later building should be completed only the use of the age of the problem, will not affect a lot, and the industry do not know how many similar jerry-building project, did not see anything happen. So he did more peace of mind.

A few days ago, the Quality Supervision and Inspection Bureau checked here to find out the problem, I do not know whether it is a worker behind the back of the chewing tongue, he thought as long as he was justified will not be found, and then the bribe is also essential. However, the matter became more and more serious, and finally the president of the Charlie Group came in person. He felt overwhelmed and panicked, but he would never admit that he had done those things, before meeting the president he had planned, as long as he found a good excuse, the Charlie Group was so powerful, the president came, those people should be easy to deal with.

Sooner or later, this matter will also be over, he is also the result of admitting a mistake to be punished.

But he did not expect things to develop into what they are now!

Not only in front of the people of the Quality Supervision and Inspection Bureau site collapse not to mention, but also the president of the side of the woman buried! Why did he bury her instead of anyone else? Manager Pete suddenly felt that he was really unlucky! Now he could only hope that nothing serious would happen to that Miss Capra, and it would be better if she suffered some minor injuries and forget about it. Otherwise …

He looked over to York Charlie, who was rummaging and digging on the side despite the words of the crowd, his face anxious and worried, but seemingly calm, and his heart skipped a beat. If … if Miss Capra was dead or crippled, what a price he would have to pay!

The ears are still the words of those workers, cursing someone in the company for embezzlement while saying that the woman who was buried was really unlucky. Then someone said that the woman and the president of the relationship is not ordinary, as a result, everyone looked at the eyes of the president changed, and there are even people said that the president of such is deserved!

If it wasn’t that the company couldn’t even control it, how could such a thing happen? This is good, always want to let these people in high positions taste in order to seek profit by any means and pay a painful price.

Manager Pete stood to the side with his legs weakening. It wasn’t as if he hadn’t noticed the way the workers were looking at him, disgusted and skeptical, as if they’d seen his end coming and were looking at him as a joke.

They all suspected, suspected that he was the one who was cutting corners behind his back!

Manager Pete could no longer see York Charlie’s figure, he listened to the words of those workers, he also felt the danger, and did not dare to follow York Charlie to dig people, he knew clearly that he was not a good person, since the mistake had been made, why would he risk his life to save people, to make up for a mistake that could not be made up at all?

Anyway, the most he could do was to be fined and lose his job, he didn’t need to take that risk to save people!

He only hoped that the firefighters would come faster and save Miss Capra, and not end up being buried, not saved, but instead, the president of the Charlie Group would lose his money!

He couldn’t help but use his eyes to search for York Charlie’s figure again, but he couldn’t see it but didn’t dare to go anywhere. At that moment, the long-awaited siren finally came from far and near, Manager Pete was relieved.

He yelled, “President! Stop digging! The firemen are coming!”

But there was no response from York Charlie. He was afraid that he didn’t hear him and shouted several more times. Although he guessed in his heart that maybe York Charlie wouldn’t answer him even if he heard his shouts, he still felt very unsure and apprehensive in his heart about leaving York Charlie inside.

“Manager Pete,” one of the workers sneered as he came over, “what are you still pretending to do here? Aren’t you afraid that your voice will be too loud and bury the president of your family? Then you’ll be really finished!”

Manager Pete no longer had any stance at this point, and his imposing majesty had long since ceased to exist. Hearing this worker’s naked mockery, stiffly did not dare to refute a single word.
