The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 4408
Ashley's foresight was unparalleled in the entire Acker family.
While designing the plans to build Ark Building, she had spent a lot of money to make the top floor indestructible.
The top floor of Ark Building was made out of bulletproof glass of extremely high standards, and the passages and elevator shafts that led to the roof and downstairs were all equipped with physical partitions that were as strong as that of bank vaults. Once all the physical partitions were closed, the entire top floor could be described as impregnable.
The impregnable design made it impossible for any individual weapon to enter the top floor from the roof, downstairs, or through the window. No one could enter unless the opponent dared to launch a gunship attack in New York City.
Furthermore, Ark Building was located in the center of Manhattan and it was the most prosperous area in the whole of New York, and possibly even in the entire United States. In addition, after the 9/11 incident, the United States' police and national security departments attached great importance to the safety of New York skyscrapers and so, there was absolutely no one who would dare to launch a fierce attack on Ark Building.
It was even less likely that there would be any gangsters who could drive a gunship, which was a weapon of mass destruction, over Manhattan, New York.
It was precisely because of this that Ashley had long concluded that once the Acker family faced a major disaster, hiding in Ark Building was definitely safer than any other place.
Hiding in Ark Building was equivalent to hiding above the heads of nearly ten million people in New York. No matter where a New York citizen was in New York, he would be able to see Ark Building as long as he looked up at the bustling Manhattan in the distance. It was impossible for anyone to do anything to the Acker family under such public view.
Ashley called Ark Building the last fortress of the Acker family, and only Lord Acker and his eldest son, Christian, knew of the secret of this fortress.
In addition, even Kaeden, who worked in Ark Building most of the time, did not know that there was such a mystery to this floor.
The reason why Lord Acker had not told Kaeden was because he believed that Kaeden had a radical personality and was suited to expand new territories in the business field. However, once the matter rose to the safety and security of the whole family, he could easily make the wrong judgment due to his radical personality because he was not cautious enough.
At the most critical moment, an insufficiently cautious judgment may lead to irreversible consequences.
In contrast, his eldest son, Christian, had a cautious personality, and he sought stability in everything. So, Lord Acker trusted Christian more to make decisions concerning the safety of the family.
Only Lord Acker and Christian knew the secret of this kind of fortress that would not be activated until the last moment.
Right now, although the Acker family had been lucky enough to escape a disaster, the situation was rather critical at this time and so, the only place that Lord Acker could think of was Ark Building. en Narugi
Kaeden did not know much about his father's decision and so, he said suspiciously, "Dad, I am afraid that nothing can compare to our manor in Los Angeles in terms of safety, right? There is an underground shelter there, and if something were to really happen, the shelter would also be able to protect and shield our family."
Christian stood up at this time and said," Kaeden, Dad is right. Nowhere is safer than Ark Building for us now. Our sister has left us a way out here."
Kaeden's eyes widened in surprise, and he wanted to say something, but he quickly figured out the reason and so, he nodded firmly and said seriously, "Alright, then! We will go to Ark Building!"
Christian nodded and did not say anything else. However, he could not help but feel absolutely shocked and surprised at Lord Acker's performance tonight.
The old man was not only absolutely unperturbed by the event that had occurred tonight, but he was also calmed and composed beyond ordinary measure.
Moreover, his thinking logic was very clear, and it did not seem like he was suffering from Alzheimer's at all.
Just when he thought that his father's brain functions might have improved, he suddenly discovered that a miniature ballpoint pen had been hidden in the crevice of his father's right finger. Lord Acker had also been constantly poking the palm of his left hand quietly with the tip of the pen.
Christian took a closer look and
realized that there were a lot of densely written words in the palm of Lord Acker's left hand. Every time Lord Aeker would poke his palm with a little force, he would then look down quietly at the small words Written in the palm of his hand.
