Chapter 223 Haki Back
I had known about Grayson’s capabilities since I saw hus tile He had received specialised training but Atlas had clarified that I couldn’t reveal any of Grayson’s information
Publicly, Grayson was portrayed as a high achieving student from a prestigious school, the only child of an average family in Fonwood. That was the extent of his reputations
I did feel uneasy using Grayson to investigate the Pierce family when Allas had assigned him to me
Most companies tended to slow down from Christmas instil New Year’s Day. However, All Empire caught us off guard. They insisted on starting work immediately on projects that were supposed to begin after the New Year. They even shortened the timelines
It was unreasonable given the upcoming New Year holiday, which typically disrupts work for 20 days. They showed no leniency, citing that properties were already sold and new owners were eager to move in
Meanwhile, the Echelon Group project remained ongoing and couldn’t be paused.
I called Atlas, who was abroad, but didn’t tell him about my concerns. Instead, I approached Nick, who
also seemed troubled by the situation. Though he didn’t say much. I understood his concem There was
no room for negotiation.
Ryan tried to find a solution, and Grayson talked to various external resources However, we hit glead
ends.
Nevertheless, time waits for no one. The New Year was fast approaching After the holiday, business would slow down everywhere.
On top of that, starting work at this time meant I had to advance the workers paychecks. It was risky since the workers might not return on time after the holiday.
ATL Empire seemed ruthless. Sometimes, I questioned why I had to push myself so hard. Couldn’t I enjoy a peaceful and uncomplicated life?
However, dwelling on such thoughts was useless. It felt like I was being forced into a corner with no way
out.
Just when I felt overwhelmed, Atticus extended an unexpected helping hand.
One day, I received a call from him inviting me to meet. It felt somewhat peculiar. Aside from our collaboration on the duplexes, I had no further dealings with him and no intention of working together
