The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Not a Big Problem

On the third day after the television crew departed, Wyatt brought Elsa and Clara, who had been escorted by the Security Bureau, to the foot of Silent Peak.

When they arrived, they saw about a dozen bulldozers working on a site at the base of Silent Peak, with construction signs erected all around.

Since the area was deserted, they simply walked to a nearby shed outside the construction zone to find some shade.

Elsa was still seated in her wheelchair, with Wyatt pushing her into the shade. He opened a bottle of water and carefully fed her a few sips, his tender actions making Clara’s eyes blaze with envy.

The young man from the Security Bureau responsible for escorting them was named Victor Quintero, and he showed no interest in the legal issues concerning the three of them, instead observing the bustling construction crew with curiosity.

"I remember that the area around Silent Peak belongs to the Taoism Academy. Why is there construction happening here?"

The Security Bureau and the Taoism Academy are both formal national institutions, and every year the Security Bureau selects outstanding graduates from three domestic Taoism academies to serve as reserves.

He happened to be one of those graduates who was fortunately selected for the Security Bureau.

The shed was specifically built for the workers to rest and cool down; nearby, there was iced tea and disposable cups. Just then, the foreman, Xu, was enjoying tea there, and upon hearing Victor speak, he laughed and said,

"You know about the Taoism Academy, huh? I only just heard about that prestigious academy this year."

As he spoke, he pointed towards Silent Peak,

"Up there, you know? Our boss’s daughter is a new student at that academy, and he’s worried about her not eating well on the mountain, so he decided to set up a culinary street at the foot of the mountain. At first, he planned to open a food restaurant, but then our boss thought the menu was too limited, so he went back and came up with a culinary street plan. Today is the first day of construction."

The foreman said with a sigh,

"Man, the way rich folks spoil their daughters, you’ve got to wonder, can’t they spoil them any other way? Tsk..."

Victor Quintero’s mouth twitched at these words.

Not only had the foreman never heard of it, but neither had he.

He couldn’t imagine what sort of daughter would be spoiled to such an extent.

As he pondered this, he suddenly saw the foreman pointing excitedly towards the mountain path, whispering, "See that, that’s our boss’s daughter, and I hear she’s also a famous master online!"

Victor looked in the direction the foreman was pointing, and sure enough, he saw Scarlett Jennings walking slowly toward them.

He was stunned at first, then his eyes widened, "It’s her!"

Scarlett Jennings walked directly over, first glancing at Wyatt and the two people behind him, then at Victor Quintero. Seeing him in uniform, with the Security Bureau badge on his chest, she immediately understood that he was the staff member responsible for the escort.

She nodded slightly at him, "Thank you for making the trip."

"Just doing my duty," Victor Quintero said, suddenly extending his hand toward her,

"My name is Victor Quintero, I belong to the Sea City Branch of the Security Bureau’s execution team. I’ve been wanting to meet you."

Scarlett Jennings blinked, her expression appearing puzzled.

Victor reminded her, "The incident with the Wealth Pillar and the Body Borrowing in your group before, my colleague and I were the ones responsible."

However, they had mostly been coordinating with the police and hadn’t had the chance to meet her in person.

Scarlett Jennings nodded in understanding and shook hands with him.

The two didn’t say much more, both focused on the matter of Wyatt’s wife’s soul swap and decided to handle business first.
