My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1270

It had been almost a month since he last came to Lancille Village. The place had changed a lot. The base that was still in preparation before had completed its construction. There were only two floors. As it was turning winter soon, all the plants in the village had turned yellow and the leaves had begun to fall. The road was covered with cement, so it was much easier to walk.

The Roberts Group and the Milton Group had collaborative projects that were already in progress. However, the two companies began facing problems at the same time. So, many of the projects were put on hold.

The car had stopped at the gate of the tech base. The police had surrounded the scene. It seemed that they wanted to protect the scene. Rowane was communicating with the police, but Sebastian was absent.

"Mr. Roberts, you're here!" Rowane spoke. When she saw Hendrix, she immediately went forward to welcome him. It was obvious that she was in a good mood upon seeing him.

Hendrix looked at her and asked, "What's the current situation?"

"We have found the place where Sebastian transferred the technology. It has been blocked by the police. We are now contacting the Milton family!" Rowane said and looked at me casually while speaking.

Linda came to the scene as well and said excitedly when she saw me, "Where have you been recently? Why is Mr. Milton suddenly detained in Oakland? What happened?"

I didn't know how to explain it to her. After a moment of hesitation, I said, "It's quite complicated. I'll tell you the details later. What's going on here?"

Linda curled her lips and replied, "I don't know what happened. Do you remember the previous technology theft? The equipment lost by Roberts Group were all found in the underground warehouse of the base. To be honest, I've been working here for ten years, but I didn't know an underground warehouse even existed!"

I glanced at Hendrix and remembered the time when I discovered something wrong with the building of the base. At that time, I only asked Hendrix to check it out.

"Let's go in and take a look!" Hendrix said.

We entered the base and there were police guarding at the door. Rowane looked at the person and said, "This is Mr. Roberts from our company. He is here to confirm the equipment that was lost."

The policeman glanced at us and said, "The person in charge of both companies must be present, if you want to go in."

Linda and I made eye contact and said, "We are the ones in charge of the project from Milton Group." At the same time, Linda took out her employee ID.

The policeman took a look at it and let us in. In the base, the facilities on the first floor were the same as before, they were not moved at all. Rowane brought us all the way into another door on the first floor.

When I saw the door in front of me, I was a little surprised. One wouldn't even know there was a door here. This door was so identical to the wall that one couldn't even discern where one ended and the other began.

"Since when is there a door here?" Linda asked and frowned, looking incredulous.

I was a little surprised as well, but when I followed Rowane into the room behind the door, I became even more surprised. There was a long corridor behind the door. After walking for a while, we arrived at the underground warehouse, where all the lost technical equipment from Roberts Group were stored.

"I told them earlier that these equipment wouldn't be transferred anywhere at the moment. They'd draw too much attention. Moreover, they're large and difficult to transport. It was an impossible task. It turned out that they were all being stored here for the time being," Rowane said.
