Bab 49: Prelude to World's Fair

The factory buzzed with activity as workers polished the newly finished vehicles, preparing them for shipment. Inside, Matthew was going over the final checklist with Klaus, the lead engineer. Every detail had to be perfect. The World's Fair was just weeks away, and there was no room for error.

The sound of a carriage pulling up outside caught Matthew's attention. He glanced out the window and saw Mr. Fitzwilliam stepping down, his sharp suit as immaculate as ever. Charles Fitzwilliam was a man of presence, and even amidst the chaos of the factory, his arrival commanded attention.

Matthew walked out to greet him, wiping his hands on a cloth. "Mr. Fitzwilliam, welcome to Sylvania. I wasn't expecting you this early."

Charles smiled faintly, his eyes scanning the factory yard. "Good to see you, Hesh. I wanted to see your progress for myself. The World's Fair is too important to leave anything to chance."
