Chapter 210
Elliot rarely bothered with people or matters that failed to pique his interest<b>. </b>His knowledge of individuals backgrounds only extended as far as necessary for research purposes
Still, he recognized the two men in his office. Earlier, Khad asked him to look into Leid Laurier and Jason Martinez Delving deeper, he uncovered their social connections.Material ? N?velDrama.Org.
As it turned out, both visitors were employed by Loid Intriguingly, one of them hailed from the esteemed Knight family of Bridgeport.
The situation fascinated lot. What had Venom done to provoke these men to the point where they demanded him from Alches?
Shaun smirked. The silver ear stud <b>on </b>his left ear reflected a jarring light. Digging out his ID <b>from </b>his pocket, he handed it over to Elliot. “This is my ID
Elliot’s eyes wavered in shock when he saw the ID. Momentster, be returned the ID and exined, “Alchos has Halsed with the authorities. I believe you have no good reason or the capability to find trouble with us.”
“Oh, Mr. Quade, you misunderstood us. This is nothing more than a routine patrol,” Shaun smiled. “It’s just a formality so that we can report back to our bosses.”
Elliot squinted before guffawing “Sure. Go ahead, please.”
He personally led Shaun and Daniel to check out the premises starting from the first floor. Apart from the top floor, the rest of the floors were office areas.
Each year, Alchos would hire new graduates equipped with professional skills. The newbies would be assigned to different floors for their internships, and the top performers would be assigned to minor missions as training.
As Alchos was a famous name in the country, many candidates applied to work here. Hence, each floor was filled with many employees.
Shaon and Daniel appeared to be looking out for safety breaches in the building, but they were, in fact, silently scrutinizing the employees.
They continued until the eighth floor, but Venom was nowhere to be found Shaun knitted his brows together. He looked sideways at Daniel and whispered, “Did Loid make a mistake? Is Venom not here?”
Although he kept his voice low, Eliot still picked up every word from the conversation from ahead.
Elliot tilted his head and stole a nce at Shaun from the corners of his eyes, yet he said nothing as he continued leading the two men around Alchos.
Daniel replied in a whisper, “There are two more floors left. We might find him somewhere around there. Don’t panic for now.”
Shaun nodded but remained concerned.
After they toured the ninth floor, Shan’s face turned ashen. “What the fuck? Why isn’t he here?”
“Only the tenth floor is left.” Daniel appeared troubled as well, but he firmly believed in Loid’s assessment Venom could not be anywhere else but Alches.
“Damn it! That’s where Elliot Quade’s office and the Elite Four are. They’re rarely there. How the hell do we locate Venom on that floor? Plus, we can’t risk getting on Elliot Quade’s bad side. We might need his helpter.”
Elliot unexpectedly stepped in with a generous offer. “Since you’re here, why not check the tenth floor thoroughly? You <b>won’t </b>be <b>making </b>more routine visits to Alchos, right?” Shaon’s expression hardened. Smiling awkwardly, he turned down the offer. “<b>We’ll </b>skip the tenth floor. I doubt we’ll find anything there.”
“You should <b>take </b>a look. I can be a careless man. Who knows if I’ve overlooked some safety measures?” Elliot insisted as he pressed the elevator button for the tenth floor.
Shaun made the daring decision to follow suit. As expected, <b>Venon </b>was nowhere to be found on the tenth floor.
“We apologize for any inconvenience. It’s time for us to report back.” Feeling humiliated <b>and </b>angered, Shaun quickly said <b>goodbye </b>to Elliot before leaving Alchos with Daniel.
