Chapter 107
“Ms. Wolfenden! You’re finally here!”
A middle-aged man with a white hat ran over. This was the manager of the company’s workplace safety
department, Wade Drummond. A side of the external frame had collapsed on the site, and the workers
who stood on the frame had fallen as a consequence.
Wade had been scared, paralyzed in his office, and nearly peed his pants. Sadie had put exceptional
emphasis on site safety, so the assessment in the workplace safety department was the strictest out of
all departments,
Wade had been doing well these past two to three years. No one was expecting such a serious accident.
He could already foresee how he would end up. “How many died, and how many are injured?” Sadie
asked sternly. Wade answered shakily, “F-Five dead… and seven injured badly…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSadie stumbled, looking appalled,
Kayson’s eyes darkened at the answer as well–five innocent lives! He took a glance at the mangled
bodies on the ground. They all looked to be in their 30s and 40s and were possibly the breadwinners at
home.
The Allens… They really had no regard for human life! The other construction workers looked grieved.
They had been working, eating, and drinking together. No one had thought of losing five pals in one go.
“Compensation!” shouted a middle-aged man who was burned from the sun with reddened eyes. “Yes!
Compensation! We’re not working if you don’t recompense!” yelled another worker. “Timothy’s daughter
is still in high school, and he has no wife. He’s his daughter’s only support. What will happen to his
daughter now that he’s gone?!”
The tanned man seemed to be close to one of the deceased.
“If you don’t recompense Timothy’s family, I’ll expose you! I’ll fight to the end with my life!”
Sadie took in the emotional workers and hurried to assure them, “We’ll definitely bear the responsibilities
and make reasonable compensation according to the law!”
“Who are you? Can you call the shots?” asked the tanned middle-aged man. “I’m the GM of Wolfenden
Corp., Sadie Wolfenden. Mister, do you mind telling me your name?”
“I’m Max Elford!”
Sadie nodded and told Wade, “Understand the family condition of the… late members from Mr. Elford.
“The daughter of Timothy who he’s mentioned… If that’s the real situation, the company will
bear all her high school and university fees and food expenditure!” Wade nodded. “I understand. Don’t
worry, Ms. Wolfenden!” It was only then Max looked a little better. Sadie spoke seriously. “Do not worry.
I’ll get to the bottom of today’s accident! “There will not be any excuses for the compensation to happen!
Wolfenden Corp. has never delayed any payment all these years. I ask for your trust!” This was the time
that reflected the company’s emphasis on its reputation and impression. The workers were obviously
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmaware of it, so they did not make a big fuss. As for Sadie, she could not get herself to look at the gory
sight and walked toward the fallen frame in anger. How did an accident like this happen? Wade knew
how much regard she had for the safety aspect, so she believed that the man dared not slack either.
Moreover, even if there was an issue of the frame not being set up correctly, the whole of it should not
have fallen directly like this…
None of the workers left, watching not too far at the back. Kayson went up and commented curtly, “It’s
intentional.” Sadie froze and snapped her head back. “How did you know?” “Because—” Kayson was
going to answer when the workers behind them screamed in horror. As if having a hunch, he looked up
and widened his eyes—a few steel bars were falling off from the top!
They were coming down at him and Sadie!
Sadie looked up as well. She turned pale and froze in shock! Kayson carried her directly and sprinted
forward.
