I Choose Him, Your Worst Enemy novel Chapter 188

Wynette looked at him and said, "I only want that batch of raw materials."

What she wanted was simple. It all depended on whether Damon was willing to cooperate.

Damon knew very well that if he didn't hand over the materials today, Wynette definitely wouldn't let the matter go.

After weighing his options again and again, Damon finally chose to compromise.

He gritted his teeth and steeled himself before saying, "Ms. Jewell, there really is still some silk satin left in the warehouse, but there's not much remaining. Back then, the Shepherds took a large portion of it away. There are records of all that. I honestly don't know why there isn't even the slightest record on your company's side. It really has nothing to do with me. When that batch of materials was taken away, the warehouse surveillance cameras recorded everything."

Considering the situation back then, it made sense that Liam, acting on behalf of the company, had taken the materials and handed them over to the Shepherds without officially recording it.

Seeing that Damon was finally willing to hand over the remaining materials, Wynette didn't want to waste any more time arguing with him. "I want everything that's left. As long as you hand it over, I won't pursue the previous matters."

Right now, the most important thing for her was getting the materials and delivering them to Alice before tomorrow afternoon.

The moment Damon heard that, he immediately let out a sigh of relief. "I'll take you to the warehouse right away."

As long as they weren't going to hold him accountable, Damon no longer cared about how he was supposed to explain things to the Shepherds.

The moment he saw Adriel standing beside Wynette, he had completely chickened out.

Even if Damon had ten times more courage, he still wouldn't dare go against Adriel.

Just the Gallagher Group's elite legal team alone was enough to ruin him.

Wynette glanced at Adriel, and the two of them followed behind Damon toward the warehouse.

Along the way, Damon kept rambling in an attempt to clear his name. Every word basically boiled down to him being unable to stand against the Shepherds and having no choice but to obey their orders.

Wynette simply listened without offering any opinion.

Damon led the two of them to the most remote warehouse in the factory.

The warehouse looked like it had already been abandoned.

There was only a rusty lock hanging loosely on the iron door.

In Wynette's eyes, the lock was practically useless. A kitchen cleaver could probably split it open in one swing.

The moment she saw the rundown environment, a bad feeling immediately rose in her heart.

Sure enough.

After Damon opened the warehouse door, they discovered that because of the heavy rain, the entire warehouse had flooded.

Every bit of material inside had been soaked.

"It's over." Damon's face turned pale as he waded through the water into the warehouse.

When Wynette saw that and wanted to follow him inside, Adriel stopped her. "It's all ruined."

There actually weren't that many materials in the warehouse, but they had all been carelessly tossed directly onto the floor.

There hadn't even been the most basic waterproof protection.

As soon as the rain came, the warehouse flooded.

And judging by the condition of the place, no one had managed these materials since the moment they were thrown in there.

No one even knew how many storms had come through during that time or how many times the warehouse had flooded.

The moldy smell that hit them the second the warehouse door opened was enough proof.

The materials inside were basically worthless now.

As Adriel spoke, Damon came back out holding a roll of silk satin in his hands. "Ms. Jewell, it's not that I refused to give it to you. This... look at it yourself..."

The material was completely unusable.

Wynette also looked at the fabric in Damon's hands. "This is all that's left?"

"This is everything, Ms. Jewell. At this point, I really have no reason to lie to you. There's no benefit in it for me." Damon sounded extremely sincere.

He looked at Wynette helplessly. "How about checking the other warehouses to see if there's any replacement material? But the factory hardly produces silk fabrics anymore. These days it's mostly pure cotton and cotton-linen blends."
