The Indifferent Ex-Husband: Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate novel Chapter 517

"I just accidentally left something at the construction site, so I went back to get it. As I was passing by the tent, I overheard it." Cindy blurted out anxiously, "It was Tomas and Jerry talking. Sounded like they were worried about missing an auspicious time and the bad consequences that might follow. So, they decided to stick to the original plan and pour concrete at 1:30 am."

"Jerry?" Sophia frowned, "Wasn't he replaced?"

She clearly remembered that Jerry's construction team had been confirmed as being switched out.

"I'm not sure what's up exactly. I was afraid they'd see me, so I didn't stick around. But I'm positive that it was Jerry's voice I heard." Cindy said, her voice laced with urgency, "I did catch something about them still going with Jerry's team for the pour because they're more familiar with the process and stuff. The new team surely wouldn't dare to defy the head office's orders to start work in the middle of the night. But I didn't catch everything they said."

"Got it," Sophia replied.

"So, what do we do now?" Cindy asked, "Do we go to the site to watch them work, or do we try to stop them?"

"I need to get the lowdown first." Sophia said, "You go get some rest."

"Okay." Cindy nodded, "Call me if you need anything."

"Will do."

After hanging up, Sophia called Kent, who answered quickly; he was driving, still on the highway.

"Kent, I heard something about Tomas and Jerry planning to go ahead with the construction tonight. Have you heard anything about this?" Sophia inquired.

Kent was taken aback, "Who told you that? I didn't give such an order, and Mr. Crawley wouldn't just switch things up last minute."

"It was something Cindy overheard." Sophia explained, "It was discussed by Tomas and Jerry; they're bringing back Jerry's team. If you've got anyone at the site, maybe have them keep an eye out. I'm heading over there myself. I'm worried if Jerry's team takes over, things could go sideways."

"Alright."

Kent's expression turned serious, "Just be careful on your own, okay?"

"I will."
