Chapter 177

In a building a few hundred meters away from the Asiatic Shopping Mall construction site, Jerry Zabinski was standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window in a room on the top floor. With his phone in his hand, he was looking towards the construction site.

The man narrowed his eyes as he spoke into the phone with a satisfied expression on his face. “I saw it already, Chien. I’ve already transferred one million to your bank account. For the time being, leave Channing and go into hiding.”

Chien replied excitedly, “Yes, Mr. Zabinski!”

After Jerry Zabinski hung up, he saw numerous police vehicles and ambulances speed pass the building. With a sneer on his face, the man thought out loud, “Nathan Cross, Penny Smith, this isn’t the end yet, I’ll deal with you two slowly.”

Looking extremely pale and with her voice shaking, Penny replied, “Nathan, something’s happened at the construction site. The tower crane suddenly collapsed and smashed onto the containers where the workers were staying at. We don’t know the actual casualties figures yet.”

Nathan Cross’s face was grim as he heard the bad news. In a grave tone, the man said, “Let’s hurry over and check out the situation first.”
