Chapter 167 Construction Machinery Has Been Stolen



The following day, at 5 am, the construction workers started arriving at the construction site. When the Bennet Group employees saw the deserted construction site, they couldn’t believe their eyes.

The Construction Machinery was gone. They were so scared they thought they had been robbed.

They quickly called their Team Leaders, but their calls didn’t go through. Then they called their colleagues. They were shocked to hear that their colleagues were on a month’s vacation leave.

They were not aware that their colleagues didn’t belong to the Bennet Group. They decided to call President Bennet’s Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs, to ask him about their leave.

“Mr Gibbs, we want to complain. Why are some of our colleagues on a month’s vacation leave, but we are not? Also, what happened to the Construction Machinery?”

Henry was dumbfounded. According to his knowledge, every worker was supposed to be at work. President Bennet told them to finish the stadium before the deadline. Who permitted them to take vacation leave?

He immediately called his boss. Jordan was sleeping peacefully with his sweetheart in his arms. Unbeknownst to him, the storm was coming.

He was annoyed when he received a call from his Executive Secretary. His tone was rude and said, “You had better have a good reason to call me at this hour. Or else you are fired.”

Henry Gibbs felt wronged and replied, “Sir, I received a call from the construction workers indicating that some of the construction workers are on a month’s vacation leave and the Construction Machinery has been stolen.”

Jordan was so shocked he jumped out of his bed, and quickly wore his clothes. Tiffany was stunned when she saw her fiancé’s face and asked, “What happened, my love?”

Jordan looked at her and replied, “I am not sure yet. I am going to the construction site to take a look.” He kissed his fiancée and left in a hurry. He asked his Executive Secretary to meet him at the construction site.

He had put surveillance cameras at the construction site to prevent the theft of materials. He asked his Executive Secretary to retrieve them.

He nearly fainted when he saw CEO Martins’ Executive Secretary, Siyabonga Cele, and the Martins Group’s lawyer, Eric Duma at the construction site.

Then he saw the Construction Machinery being taken away. He was finished, his company would not survive.

Henry Gibbs was so shocked he looked at his boss and asked, “What is happening, Boss?” He told him that CEO Martins from the Martins Group had taken back his workers and Construction Machinery.

Jordan decided to go to Avery’s apartment to beg her. Then he told his Executive Secretary to tell the construction workers to go back home until further notice.

While the construction workers were waiting for Mr Gibbs’ response, they found out from their colleagues that they belonged to the Martins Group. They indicated that their CEO wanted them back.

Also, the Construction Machinery belonged to their company. The Bennet Group workers were so scared that they felt that they would lose their jobs.

When Jordan arrived at Avery’s apartment, the door was opened by Mr Martins. He looked at Jordan coldly for a few seconds, and then he closed the door. Jordan stood by the door for a long time, but no one opened the door for him again.

At that moment, he received a call from his Finance Director, Sean Swan, indicating that the Martins Group’s lawyer had withdrawn all the funds from the Bennet Group’s account.

He couldn’t breathe, he felt suffocated. He became dizzy. He staggered and he nearly fell on the ground. Mr Martins had put his company on its knees.

In the blink of an eye, the Bennet Group was on the verge of bankruptcy. How was he going to pay his employees’ salaries? Where was he going to find money to pay the building material suppliers?

For the past four years, he hadn’t bought Construction Machinery because it was very expensive. Since he was Mr Martins’ future son-in-law, the material suppliers allowed him to take the building materials without paying a deposit.

Mr Martins was ruthless. His lawyer, Eric Duma, sent letters to all the building material suppliers and the banks indicating that the Martins Group had nothing to do with the Bennet Group anymore.

Avery didn’t sleep a wink last night. She was tossing and turning. She was blaming herself for her foolishness. She was craving love in such a way she didn’t see Jordan’s fake love. There were red flags, but she turned a blind eye.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Fortunately, she didn’t have any scheduled surgery that day. She took her phone and called Dr Lambert. When it was connected, she said, “Uncle Lambert, I would like to apply for one-month vacation leave.

Jordan broke up with me, and he is getting engaged this coming weekend. I don’t think I will be any help to you. Also, please cancel my trip to Berlin.”

Dr Lambert felt sorry for Avery and replied, “I am sorry, my dearest, for the pain Jordan has put you through. Don’t worry about us, take all the time you need.

The hospital owes you a lot of vacation leave. Take care of yourself.” Avery thanked Uncle Lambert, and then they hung up.

Gabriella had asked for one day’s leave as well to be with her best friend. She was scared that her best friend would commit suicide because she loved Jordan deeply. She was in the study room with Uncle Martins. “How is she?”

Gabriella’s heart was aching and replied, “She didn’t sleep a wink. She was crying the whole night. Jordan hurt her deeply.”

Uncle Martins said, “Jordan will pay for hurting my daughter. I want to see how he is going to complete the stadium. Gabriella, I took back the Martins Group construction workers and the Construction Machinery.

My lawyer sent the letters to the building material suppliers indicating that the Martins Group doesn’t have anything to do with the Bennet Group.”

Gabriella was happy to hear that. Since she was a journalist, she called the Editor-in-Chief, Jessica Wells, and told her about the abandoned stadium project. Jessica Wells wanted her to report on the matter, but she couldn’t leave her best friend alone.
