Natalie knew Luis abilities. Seeing his confident words, she couldn't help but show concern for Amin. After all, the two had a good relationship, and she couldn't bear to see him get into trouble like this.
Natalie leaned closer to Luis and whispered, "Luis, is it really possible for people to die?"
It wasn't that she didn't believe Luis, but rather that she found it hard to believe.
Luis smiled slightly, his lips barely moving. "Not only will they die, but there will be heavy casualties, five dead and nine injured. With an accident like this, his construction site will definitely be shut down, and he will also face legal trouble."
Shock flashed in Natalie's eyes. She thought it was just one death. If it reached five, it would be a very big accident. Such a thing could destroy all of Amin's hard work. Moreover, in order to make someone take the blame, Amin might have to go to jail for life. No wonder Luis said he would face imprisonment.
Luis couldn't see clearly, but Natalie was very clear about the consequences.
After a moment of silence, Natalie looked at Amin and said, "Mr. Amin, I hope you can take this matter seriously."
Amin frowned at Natalie and sneered, "President Natalie, do you really think this is true? How do you expect me to take it seriously? Stop construction? Do you know how much damage a construction site shutdown will cause?"
"Based on just one sentence? That's ridiculous! I'm not leaving right now; I'm waiting here until 3 o'clock to keep an eye on him. I've already called my company's security guards. If what he said is false and he's still trying to scam people here, I'll beat him out of the room and show him that not just anyone can be fooled!"
Natalie shook her head, not angry. In a long-distance relationship, she and Amin reacted the same way. Didn't she do the same thing before?
"But... what if it's true?" Natalie didn't say much, but just asked this question.
Amin was taken aback. Yes, what if it were true? What if it really happened?
Although a work stoppage would cause huge losses, I can bear those losses. But what if it really happens? Then the losses would be something I can't easily bear.
This includes using connections, obtaining compensation, and so on.
"How could it be true?" Amin simply didn't believe it.
"Sister, don't try to persuade him, he won't believe you." Luis shook his head.
"Yes, Mrs. Natalie, you'd be better off advising your brother than me. The security guards are on their way. Apologize now, admit your mistake, and you'll be free from suffering later," Amin sneered.
No one would be happy if someone said their construction site would be filled with deaths. The fact that they haven't taken any action yet is already giving Natalie a huge favor.
Luis looked at Amin, a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes. Ignorance is bliss.
Luis stopped talking, closed his eyes to rest, but his mind was still on the romantic night he spent with Natalie.
Natalie sighed inwardly and said in a low voice, "Luis, I should still try to persuade him. After all, it's five lives. People who work on construction sites are all unfortunate. Five lives mean five families."
Luis hand trembled. "Then you should persuade her, sister."
"Mr. Amin, it's already 1:30. The construction site only starts work at 2:00. If work stops from 2:00 to 3:00, how much will you lose?" Natalie looked at Amin and asked seriously.
Amin eyes flashed with surprise. "Mrs. Natalie, you're not asking this because you really want me to stop work and then compensate for the losses during this period, are you?"
Natalie nodded.
Amin's eyes flashed with incomprehension. How could Natalie trust this charlatan so much? He pondered for a moment and said, "Mrs. Natalie. Oh! Miss, stopping the construction site is not such a simple matter. Getting the machines running again involves many things and is very troublesome. It's not something I can decide with just a few words."
"Then let's stop. Stop at three o'clock. I'll take responsibility for the losses!" Natalie said firmly.
"Alright! Since you trust this man so much, Mrs. Natalie, I'll take this gamble! If what he says is true, you don't have to worry about any losses, and I'll sell him the villa for 500,000! I'll also apologize to him and call him Master Luis! I'll never disobey him again! If what he says is false, you don't have to bear any losses, and I won't beat him up. I just need him to apologize and make sure he doesn't continue to scam people in Bristol!"
Seeing Natalie's sincerity, Amin gritted his teeth and said resolutely.
Luis opened his eyes, surprised that this person had such courage. He couldn't help but smile. "Since you say so, then I'll tell you the truth. There will be at least five casualties on your construction site this time. You'd better make a decision quickly."
Amin sneered, not believing it at all, but still said, "It's all thanks to you having a good older sister."
Luis said, "You should be grateful to know such a kind person as my sister."
Without further ado, Amin started making phone calls, issuing a series of orders, and another half hour had passed.
It's already two o'clock.
It was also because the workers were on their lunch break and there weren't many people on the construction site, otherwise it wouldn't have been so fast.
Luis and Natalie sat on one side, neither of them speaking. Only Amin occasionally glanced at Luis and revealed a cold smile.
Luis scrolled through Tiktok and read a novel named "Lewd System: Harem". This novel is really good. He sent gifts, powerstones and left good reviews.
Luis knew the time was 2:18, but he deliberately said it was around 3:00, just to avoid making it too sensational.
At 2:15, Luis put away his phone. "It should be soon."
"Didn't you say three?" Natalie asked in confusion.
"Sometimes knowing in advance can affect whether things are brought forward or delayed," Luis explained.
Natalie nodded, "I see."
Amin watched the two talking in hushed tones and was about to speak when his cell phone, which was on the dining table, suddenly started buzzing.
It felt like his heart was being gripped and pounding violently.
Amin's expression changed. After making the call, he sent a message to the person in charge, telling him to call immediately if he found anything wrong, and to stop work until 3 p.m. and then continue construction.
The phone rang shortly after he sent the message. Could something really have happened?
But it's not three o'clock yet.
By the way, Luis said around three o'clock, not exactly three o'clock. As long as it's past two o'clock, it's still considered around three o'clock.
Thinking of this, Amin quickly picked up the phone and answered it, turning on speakerphone as he went.
"Mr. Ami!!!! Mr. Amin! Something terrible has happened! The crane cable just snapped! Luckily you told us to stop work temporarily, otherwise we would be finished!"
A frantic voice came from the other end, a voice tinged with lingering fear and relief.
Amin's face turned pale instantly. "How could there be a problem with the crane's cables! Didn't I tell you to repeatedly emphasize that you need to check them before every day's work begins?!"
"We did check! We just don't know what happened, it just suddenly stopped."
"Is anyone injured? Has anything happened?" This was what Amin was most concerned about.
"No! Not a single one! Thank goodness you stopped the work. If we had continued with normal construction, I estimate there would have been at least ten casualties!"
Five dead, five wounded, and definitely no fewer than ten. Amin now completely believes Luis words; if he says a few will die, then a few will definitely die, and the others will definitely be wounded.
"Now! Immediately! Check all the equipment. If you don't eliminate all the potential hazards, you can wait and see. I'll deal with you later!"
Amin cursed angrily, regretting that if Luis hadn't told him beforehand, and if Natalie hadn't been so kind as to take responsibility for his losses, he would have regretted it.
He dared not imagine what fate awaited him.
At least five people will die!
This is five human lives! Not five dogs! In today's society, even one accidental death is a big deal, let alone five! If this makes the news, I'll truly be doomed!
Amin was filled with lingering fear; his face turned pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
Luis and Natalie naturally overheard their conversation. Luis chuckled softly, while Natalie breathed a sigh of relief, feeling happy that she had saved five lives. At the same time, the affection in her eyes as she looked at Luis deepened.
Amin calmed himself down and pinched his thigh hard. Only he knew how much Luis and Natalie had helped him.
He picked up the wine bottle, put the cup in front of him aside, picked up the cup, poured himself a full cup, and walked over to Luis.
"Mr. Luis... no! Master Luis! Thank you so much! I really am so grateful! If it weren't for you, I would definitely be dead today! Thank you! I'll drink it all! It's all in the wine!"
After experiencing extreme joy and sorrow, Amin was somewhat flustered and no longer had the high spirits he had before.
Luis smiled faintly, "You should thank my sister. If it weren't for her, even if I had told you beforehand, you wouldn't have believed me!"
"Yes, yes! Now I believe you. From now on, I will believe everything you say! Whatever you say is true! You are a true master! I was so blind to your true nature just now, I apologize!"
After the initial shock, he drank a glass of wine and came to his senses somewhat.
