Chapter 304

Oliver looked equally baffled as he stared at the furious Jennifer unable to find the words to respond.

Jennifer glared at him, her eyes reddened with frustration, her voice sharp. "Oliver, say something! Didn't you tell me you had everything under control?

Jennifer felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown. Why had all her carefully laid plans been failing one after another?

Oliver lowered his head, guilt written all over his face. He spoke in a low voice, "Ms Simpson, I really did make all the arrangements.

"Could it be that Murray somehow found out he was going to be reported? Maybe that's why he switched the suppliers for the materials."

"That's impossible! This was done in complete secrecy. How could he possibly know?" Jennifer snapped, unwilling to believe that Murray could have foreseen this. She had only made the arrangements last night.

Not even Everett knew about her plan to strike today. How could Davian have caught wind of it?

Oliver dropped his gaze, thinking hard, trying to pinpoint where things had gone wrong.

Jennifer raised her hand to stop him. Her expression was icy, her eyes sharp with calculation. "Hold off. We can't alert anyone or risk drawing attention to ourselves."

"If the Spencer family is being investigated, there will already be eyes on Everlast Construction. Let's wait. Everett should ve picked up his son by now. Once he has, we'll question him and figure out what went wrong."

"But Ms. Simpson, we've also invested in Everett's development project. If this blows up, it's possible all of our investments will go up in smoke," Oliver said, his tone grave.

She got backfired.
