Chapter 1223: Chapter 1223

Chapter 1223:

“I didn’t expect that you would encounter such difficult times.” Allison understood the subtle undertones of his words.

Fabian’s company had grown into one of the most prominent businesses in Vrining.

From what she had uncovered, the mayor had been eyeing this place for quite some time.

When funds were scarce, it was no surprise that a valuable asset like this would attract hungry eyes. They wanted to sink their teeth into it and claim it for themselves.

“So, if someone who isn’t a government official wants to buy Aröme Tower, they’ll need the kind of power that can stand toe-to-toe with Vrining’s government.”

Allison drew in a deep breath and continued, “Or they’ll have to be strong enough to endure the relentless pressure of government harassment. Money alone won’t cut it in this situation.”

Fabian gave a solemn nod. “That’s right. Ms. Clarke, I understand your and Mr. Lloyd’s intentions, but there are forces at play here that are simply beyond our control.”

A flicker of frustration flared within Allison, but she quickly suppressed it.

Her connection with Fabian was strictly professional. She hadn’t come here to meddle in his affairs; she’d come seeking clues about her mother.

Swallowing the tide of emotions, she reached for the layout map of Aröme Tower.

“No wonder the government has its eyes on Aröme Tower. This building is nothing short of a masterpiece — a rare gem of modern architecture.”

She traced her finger over the intricate structural diagram, momentarily lost in thought.

“Still, there’s something peculiar about this. Normally, a skyscraper’s foundation is thick and robust, but the base of this building seems oddly thin.”

She had chosen her words carefully, aiming to pique Fabian’s interest. If she could win his trust, she might find an excuse to conduct a thorough investigation of Aröme Tower.

Fabian’s brow furrowed slightly as her observation took root in his mind.

“I don’t know much about engineering diagrams, but I remember the professionals who inspected it assured me it was solid. They said it wouldn’t collapse even in a minor earthquake.”

Allison shook her head. “That’s not exactly the case. I paid attention to the ground when I visited yesterday.”

Her words weren’t just conjecture. She was telling the truth. There was something undeniably off about the building.

With careful intent, Allison hinted at the findings from her investigation. “The construction plan of Aröme Tower doesn’t match the actual building. If I’m right, there’s a hidden underground structure beneath it.”

“Are you suggesting there’s a basement or secret passages?” Fabian’s expression darkened. “I recall that this building was never designed with such features.”

Allison spread the blueprints across the desk confidently.

“According to the plans, this shouldn’t exist. But after I left Dibya Group and explored Aröme Tower, I happened upon a flight of stairs. The thing is, those stairs aren’t on these blueprints, so…”
