Chapter 330

Black shoes stepped into the room; the man, nearly six foot three, carried an overwhelming presence. His black shirt was paired with a smoky gray patterned tie that Ophelia had tied for him when he left the house today. His stunningly handsome, chiseled features conveyed a sense of deadly seriousness.

The conference room fell completely silent due to Kenneth' presence.

His bodyguards, all dressed in black, poured into the room. Each pair stationed themselves behind the department leaders' chairs, giving off a feeling of captivity.

The deputy director of the Engineering Department, who had spoken earlier, almost couldn't remain seated and looked around nervously.

"What... what is the meaning of this?" He looked at Trent for help and was about to stand up when two strong hands pushed him back into his chair.

Trent didn't have a relaxed expression; someone even more troublesome had arrived.

He forced a smile and was just about to get up when someone pressed him back down by the shoulder.

"Mr. Sinclair... what are you doing...?"

"Isn't it obvious? I'm threatening you," Kenneth said, his lips barely moving as he took out a gun from his belt. The sound of the bullet being loaded was exceptionally clear.

Trent pursed his lips, his face turning pale, and immediately looked at Ophelia. "This isn't that complicated. Since we have the solution and the documents from above, we should just go with it."

"Yeah. That place needs to be spruced up; it's affecting the city's image." Ophelia sneered inwardly; that wasn't what they said earlier.

They were against developing that area just now.

Kenneth casually took a seat, never once glancing at Ophelia since he walked into the room.

He crossed his legs and leaned back in his chair, eyeing each of the bald heads. "So what are you waiting for?"

"It's just that, Mr. Sinclair, if we publicly release the approval documents and start the development, it might cause opposition from other residents. So... I suggest we first make sure the water quality there is safe," said Trent. Trent was being quite subtle; those who got it got it.

Everyone was aware of what was concealed in that reclaimed part of the sea; if they made too much noise, it would meet with opposition.

Kenneth glanced at Ophelia next to him, and with just one look, he turned his gaze away.

"First, ensure the people there are settled," said Kenneth.

-This was what Ophelia was thinking as well, and Kenneth expressed it for her.

It didn't stop there.

Kenneth smiled at the group, but that smile sent a shiver down their spines.

"Until the task is completed, I'll make sure bodyguards protect all of you," said Kenneth.
