The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 997

When the professor passed away unexpectedly, the project was shelved, becoming a 'tough nut to crack' that no one in the industry dared to touch. Now, Alexander was announcing its revival. Given his past involvement and current resources, he certainly had the qualifications. But why restart it now? Danielle frowned, her mind filled with questions. The scandal at the engagement party hadn't even died down, with Forest under investigation and the relationship between Jake and Harold shrouded in mystery. The Davidson family was in a tumultuous state, yet at this critical juncture, Alexander chose to take on such a sensitive, classified project.

Watching the news about Alexander?" Gian's voice came from behind her. He placed a cup of hot coffee on the desk in front of her.

Danielle nodded, looking up at him. "You saw it too? Project 07. He's actually restarting it."

Gian silently watched the news on the screen, his deep eyes unreadable. After a long moment, he finally spoke, his voice low and calm. "The winds are changing."

Danielle paused, not understanding. "What do you mean?"

"The winds in Northridge City, for the Davidson family, and for the entire aerospace industry." Gian picked up his own coffee and took a light sip. "Project 07 isn't an ordinary commercial venture. It involves state secrets, and the interests and powers entangled in it are far more complex than we can imagine."

"He has no choice," Gian said, shaking his head. "Between Jake's control and Harold's rise, he has to take this gamble. Or maybe he's had this planned all along, and everything is proceeding as he envisioned. I don't think he'd make a move he wasn't sure of. There's something more going on here, something we're not seeing."

The lab fell into silence. Danielle suddenly felt that she had never truly understood this man. He had been cold, obsessive, and even gentle, but beneath it all was a heart that refused to be controlled, a will that craved to be in command.

"Regardless, we can't avoid this storm," Gian's voice broke the silence. He looked at Danielle. "While Ninesky isn't directly involved in Project 07, as part of the aerospace industry, we're bound to be affected. What we need to do now is hold our ground and focus on our own work."
