Chapter 554 Sadieâs gaze turned ferocious instantly when she noticed that Kayson still wanted to
speak more.
âMy grandfather has always wanted us to get married. If you tell him tomorrow, yet you're still
staying in my home, heâs going to force me to get married to you for real by then. I donât want
that.â
Kayson considered for a moment and figured that she was right-he had forgotten about this.
âSure, we shall do it your way then.â
In truth, he did not mind at all but sleeping on the floor of Sadieâs room without a proper reason all
this time was not good for Sadieâs clean reputation.
Sadie saw the bag that Kayson placed on the floor casually and asked, âWhat's in the bag?â
Kayson answered with an âahâ and said, âI encountered a fortune teller during my travels, and he
sold me a lot of charms.â
The bag contained the charms he had taken from Poison
Pop.
Sadie felt speechless. She said, âThat's all used to swindle people. You must be alert not to fall for
people's lies. Don't be fooled again from now on.â
She wanted to mock Kayson for being clueless because he was from the countryside. However, she
remembered that Kayson helped her a great deal in truth, so she stopped in time.
After the disturbance, Sadie was not in the mood to proceed with her skincare routine anymore.
Kayson's earlier remark about telling the truth to her grandfather reverberated in her mind. The
more she thought about it, the more furious and agitated she was on the inside.
She tossed and turned and had trouble falling asleep. Coincidentally, Sadieâs phone rang at that
time.
She took her phone and found that the caller was the assistant manager of the materials
department.
She suppressed the agitation in her heart and said,â What's going on, Mr. Cowan?â
Mr. Cowan cried and shouted, âMs. Wolfenden! Come to Materials Warehouse West-2, quickly! The
warehouse is on fire! The fire burned Mr. Wolfenden!â
Sadie sat upright in shock almost instantaneously , with tears welling in her eyes.
âI will be there immediately. How's my father?â
âMr. Wolfenden has been burned rather severely...â
Sadie felt her mind go blank right away, and her head was
dizzy. She was about to fall unconscious.
Kayson immediately stepped forward to catch her and took her phone. âSend the address.â
Mr. Cowan paid no attention to Kayson's identity. He hung up the call immediately and sent the
location.
Sadie was completely drained and could not utter a word.
Kayson grabbed a few charms without any hesitation and carried her on his back before heading
outside. âI... I will drive.â
Sadie said with great difficulty while Kayson nodded.
Sadie composed herself and drove at full speed all the way without speaking to Kayson. Warehouse
West-2 was more than 50 acres in size and was their second largest warehouse for construction
materials storage.
Wolfenden Corp. had way too many ongoing projects simultaneously that required daily materials
supply. On the other hand, they needed a temporary location to store the construction materials,
and this was the place.
Sadieâs expression was frozen as she looked at the roaring fire, and she thought about the loss of
materials that would amount to more than $7,500,000.
A middle-aged man with a soot-covered face ran over and said shakily, âM-Ms. Wolfenden..."
Sadie inhaled a deep breath. âHow did it catch fire?â
This person was precisely the warehouse manager who called Sadie earlier, Mr. Cowan.
Penn Cowan said with a bitter smile, âI have no idea, Ms. Wolfenden. The fire was raging out of
nowhere.â
Sadie knew that now was not the time to put the blame, so she asked, âWhy isnt the fire
department here yet?â
Penn said, âThey claimed that they're stuck in traffic...â
Sadie was frantic with anger. âStuck in traffic!? It's half past ten at night, yet there's still traffic!?â
Penn understood that the excuse sounded absurd. âWe don't believe it either, but it seems like there
is traffic indeed...â
Kayson watched for a moment before he suddenly walked ahead.
Sadie was shocked and hastily said, âKayson! What are you doing!?"
