Chapter 512 - 507: Saving Husband (2)

"If anyone has further questions, you’re free to call the police or pursue legal action. Jasper Shaw compensated you for your wages because he understands how hard it is to make a living. The Shaw Group is also a victim in this incident, and Chairman Shaw deeply sympathizes with your situation. That’s why we’ve done what we can, providing a total of over three million yuan in compensation."

As she spoke, Chloe Sinclair glanced at the three people being restrained. "But some people are just insatiably greedy. They want what isn’t theirs, and they’ll scheme to get even more. That’s called being insatiable."

"I’ll overlook what happened here today. But if anyone continues to cause a scene at the company gates over this, don’t blame me for getting rough!"

In fact, almost everyone had heard of Chloe Sinclair.

She wasn’t just a household name in the entertainment industry; she frequently appeared in major news broadcasts and newspapers.

She was incredibly well-known to the public.

And these people weren’t fools.

They had all seen and understood exactly what Chloe Sinclair had just done.

"My daughter absolutely idolizes her. She says she’s determined to major in Physics when she takes her college entrance exams."

"My little boy says he’s going to marry Chloe Sinclair when he grows up."

"Isn’t your son only three?"

"So what if he’s three!"

"I’m starting to really trust Chloe Sinclair. I feel like we were misled before."

"Yeah, the Sutton Group’s shoddy project has nothing to do with the Shaw Group."

The crowd suddenly realized they had been brainwashed by those three.

Immediately, someone stepped forward, pointed at the three, and said, "It was them! They’re the ones who instigated us to come here."

"They claimed the Shaw Group was really at fault and said Jasper Shaw was just paying us off to sweep it under the rug."

"Fuck, we were tricked!"

The more the crowd thought about it, the angrier they got, wishing they could just slap the three of them.

Chloe Sinclair immediately stopped them. "Everyone, please go home for now. I promise I’ll inform you all as soon as there’s a resolution."

"But what about our jobs? I’ve got a wife and kids to support!"

"Yeah, my mom has leukemia and needs money for her medication every month. The authentic Gleevec costs over twenty thousand a month. I’m about to go crazy from being so poor, and now that my job is suddenly gone, my mom will just have to wait to die!"

Every one of these workers had their own struggles.

One of them was even a university graduate with a master’s degree. He had started working at the construction site right after graduating because of his mother’s leukemia.

He earned eight hundred yuan a day, which was just barely enough to cover the cost of the medication.

But now, with this disaster at the Sutton Group, not only had he lost his job, but he hadn’t even been paid what he was owed.

He was already worrying about how he would afford his mother’s medication for the next month.

The man, all of twenty-four or twenty-five, just sat down on the ground and started to sob.

Many others began to voice their own hardships.

"We’re in trouble too! The boss skipped town, what are we supposed to do now?!"

"My son’s tuition for the new semester is twenty thousand yuan alone..."

Chloe Sinclair’s head was starting to ache. She glanced at the time. The accident was about to happen; she was almost out of time.

Chloe Sinclair said in a low voice, "Ian Winters, go to the front desk and have a few secretaries come out to manage things here. You and I need to get to the construction site, now. Or something terrible is going to happen."

Seeing the urgency in Chloe Sinclair’s voice, Ian Winters didn’t dare delay for a second. He nodded quickly. "Okay!"

Once everything was arranged, Ian Winters went with Chloe Sinclair to the underground garage to get the car.

Ian Winters was about to get into the driver’s seat when he heard Chloe Sinclair say, "Assistant Winters, you take the back. I’ll drive."

Ian Winters froze for a second but still nodded obediently.

Chloe Sinclair spoke again. "Actually, take the passenger seat. You’ll need to give me directions."

"Right."

But the moment Ian Winters got in, before he even had a chance to buckle his seatbelt, Chloe Sinclair slammed her foot on the accelerator. A pitch-black Bentley shot out of the underground garage.

It left a blur on the road.

With trembling hands, Ian Winters finally managed to buckle his seatbelt. But before he could even sigh in relief, he saw Chloe Sinclair floor the accelerator.

He instinctively reached for the grab handle above the door.

But after fumbling around for a moment, he realized there wasn’t one.

Ian Winters could have cried.

’He really couldn’t figure out how a young woman like Chloe Sinclair could drive like such a maniac.’

The wind whipped against his face and roared in his ears.

Yet Ian Winters didn’t dare to move a muscle.

"There’s an intersection ahead. Which way do I go?"

Chloe Sinclair’s eyes were glued to the road ahead. The black Bentley was the only thing flying down the silvery-white highway, kicking up clouds of dust.

Ian Winters, still trembling, was speechless for a long moment.
