One Night Surprise

Chapter 294 How Is a Week Possible?

The night faded as dawn approached.

The alarm beside the bed kept on ringing but even after Courtney reached her hand out from the blanket to turn it off, it just didn’t seem to stop. She squinted and realized that it was still dark outside. Then, she turned toward the clock and realized that it was just past three in the morning.

Finally, she realized that it wasn’t her alarm clock going off—it was her phone.

“President Hunter, something has happened to the warehouse.”

Bill’s voice echoed in her ears as Alexander drove her straight to the warehouse. The moment they arrived, all they saw was an ocean of flames in front of them. After the two fire trucks arrived, a huge hose with high water pressure was used to suppress the fire but it didn’t work.

How can this happen?” Courtney saw Bill as soon as she got out of the car. Seeing the ashes on his face, it seemed as though he just escaped from the fire.

“At eight o’clock, I left after checking all the products. I asked Bobby and a few others to check the products again tonight. An hour ago, I received a call from Bobby saying the warehouse was on fire so I rushed over here. Right now, we can’t figure out the cause of the fire but we are definitely not the ones responsible for it.”

“Does it matter who is responsible for this?” Courtney held her forehead, feeling out of breath. Under the pressure, she started to speak carelessly. “There’s only one week until the deadline to hand in the products. At first, I wanted to hand in the products today so that we won’t have anymore problems, but you insisted on sending it to the warehouse first! I’m afraid it makes you look really suspicious.”

Meanwhile, Bill’s eyes were bloodshot. After getting embarrassingly yelled at in the face, he remained silent with his head down.

Even Alexander couldn’t stand it anymore so he tugged at Courtney’s sleeve. “Stay calm. The fire hasn’t been put out yet so we still don’t know what happened. It’s useless to blame anyone. Now, we need to think of a solution.”
