All Too Late novel Chapter 312

Chapter 312 She Looks Down On You

“Mr. Levi, since you’re this sincere, there’s no need for me to beat around the bush, then.” Putting down his glass, Caleb said, “Why don’t you come over to my office tomorrow and get the papers signed?”

“That’d be great!” Levi did not expect that things would go so smoothly.

Looking at Gizem, he praised, “You are undoubtedly my Lady Luck!”

Gizem could not respond to that. I’m pretty sure I did nothing, though.

“How’s the factory’s location selection, Mr. Levi?” Caleb asked curiously.

“I have yet to come to an agreement with the other party regarding this,” Levi answered helplessly.

“Is the other party Samuel Macari?”

Levi nodded in acknowledgment.

Caleb scoffed, “Mr. Levi, you might not be aware of this, but my late wife was Samuel’s ex-wife. Hence, we can be said to be nemeses.”

Levi’s expression changed at once. “Are you being serious?”

“Of course. However, he removed everything about his ex-wife on the internet four years ago. Nobody knows the reason for this, and such information is still unreleased. Moreover, no one in the city dares to mention it, so it’s only natural that you guys don’t know about it.”

Levi frowned.

“So what you’re saying is that if we acquire land from Samuel, you won’t work with us anymore?” Gizem voiced her inquiry indifferently.

“That’s right.” Caleb remained aloof.

“Based on what I know, we’ll still need Samuel’s help after we start our factory to transport our machinery here from overseas. Are you saying that you don’t want us to work with him completely?” she asked apathetically.

“Yes.” Caleb narrowed his eyes as he spoke.

“Mr. Lewis, you should know that we don’t want to offend any of you. Don’t you think you are crossing the line a little here?” Gizem’s bright eyes looked icy.

Levi also thought that Caleb was going overboard with that request.

This was clearly making them choose sides.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Levi. I’ll find you a suitable location.” Caleb earnestly continued, “I’ll make sure to help you solve whatever worries you might have. That way, you won’t need to work with Samuel at all.”

Levi gave it some thought. That sounds reasonable. I think I should agree to it.

Yet, Gizem chimed in, “If that’s the case, we’ll consider it. Please excuse us.”

She then led Levi away.

“Levi, you need to be careful.” Gizem sounded serious as she advised, “Caleb and Samuel have personal grudges. I don’t think we should get involved.”

“But if we don’t take up on his offer, we can’t start our factory.” Levi was visibly concerned.

“You don’t have to worry about that. Before I came here, Master mentioned that we could seek help from Chanaea’s upper echelon. The medicine we develop will bring benefits to the country. To make sure that we are willing to stay, they will surely help us solve our issues.” Gizem emphasized, “However, it is important that we don’t get involved in things we shouldn’t.”

Levi nodded in agreement.

Standing not too far from them, Caleb narrowed his eyes as he scrutinized Gizem.

I see. That woman is crucial in this. Levi’s family and the mysterious Windwell Corporation are related. Moreover, I’ve discovered that Kathleen’s disappearance all those years ago had something to do with that organization. I did some digging on Levi but found nothing. But now, I have a lead, starting with this woman.

Levi gazed at Gizem. “What should we do next?”

Suddenly feeling a sharp gaze on her back, Gizem turned to look behind her but found nothing out of the ordinary.

With her brows scrunched up, she answered, “We’ll put things on hold for now. I’ll contact the higher-ups.”

Levi agreed with a nod. “Then, let’s do that. I’ll go talk to Samuel in the meantime.”

“Sounds good.”

“Go get yourself some food. I’ll be back,” he suggested.

“Mm.”

Levi soon strode toward Samuel, who was the center of attention at the moment.

Gizem felt that the strange gaze she sensed a moment ago came from where Samuel was.
