The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1331

Claire relayed everything she had overheard to Dane.

Dane hadn't expected to catch someone cutting corners on a routine inspection.

"Good thing you were there," he said. "If the inspection team had caught this later, it would have delayed the grand opening."

"The Summit View. Let's head over there tomorrow and see what happens."

Patton had a solid reputation in the industry, which was exactly why Vertex International had selected him during the bidding process.

No one could have predicted he would subcontract part of the order to a close family friend.

Let alone that the man would use substandard materials to line his own pockets.

Dane couldn't speak for other companies' inspections, and whether they would have noticed.

But Vertex International would have undoubtedly caught it.

The Vertex Quality Control Team was notoriously strict.

There was zero chance a small-time supplier like Randall could pull the wool over their eyes.

Even if he tried slipping them a cash bribe, no one would risk their job for it.

Exposing the issue now was actually the best-case scenario for minimizing the financial fallout.

"Sounds like a plan."

Claire was genuinely curious to see how Rose's father planned to cover this up, and how he'd convince Patton to clean up his mess.

Would Patton really risk his entire livelihood just because he was fond of Rose?

Knowing Dane's ruthless business tactics, Patton would be booted from the project without a second thought.

There was still time to bring in a new contracting team!

Patton was the main contractor, and if his materials were flawed, Vertex International had every right to replace him.

Not only that, but they could sue him for breach of contract.
