Compare to the modest Dad I have in my memory, the difference is just too huge!
It really resonated with the saying, don’t judge a book by its cover!
“Therefore, Monica was seeking revenge for her Dad and the Marston Group!”
“Indeed!”
Davin had a hard time believing that still. “Your Grandpa… How could your Grandpa do something like that? Even your Dad who was nicknamed the merciless “Lucifer”, would set boundaries for himself. My Dad had no boundaries at all!” Such atrocity!
“Do you still think Monica is a crazy woman now?”
Davin sighed. “She’s not crazy but I am going to be! How do we settle this matter? The grudge is so deep, Monica will not have it resolved easily.”
“That’s right. So, let her vent her anger! I have arranged for the Hidden Masters to protect Grandma, Nina and Maya. They’ll be fine for now.”
Ah…!
Davin’s heart sank after learning about the family feud from many years ago. He found himself resonating with a wise quote. “There is absolutely no such thing as love or hatred without any reason or cause.”
There was a reason for Monica to hate the Seet family so deeply.
“Alright. I’ll do what Monica wants. I’ll entertain her for a few days and let her vent as much as she wants. This is what the Seet family owes her. However, if she still holds a grudge towards Seet Group after this and requests or behaves even more excessively, what shall we do then? We can’t let her keep hurting the Seet family, right?”
Kyle squinted his eyes. This matter had to be dealt with meticulously.
“I’ll think of a solution. Give me three days.”
“Three days? Alright, Kyle. You’ll think of a way on solving the family feud. As for her venting her anger, I’ll take care of that. After three days, I won’t entertain her anymore and it’ll be your turn to solve the matter.”
“Sure!” Kyle nodded firmly.
Davin looked at him suspiciously. With a grudge so deep, this certainly looked like a dead end. He was really curious about what kind of solutions Kyle could come up with.
On the other hand.
Evan had been staring at his phone. Few board members from the company had messaged him regarding the partnership dissolution with The Four. He was puzzled.
What the heck was Davin concocting?
Dissolving the contract with The Four all at once would be detrimental to the Seet Group. Had he gone mental? That was self-sabotaging at its best.
While Nicole was still asleep, he walked out of the room and phoned Davin.
“Evan, what’s up?”
“Was it your idea to dissolve partnership with The Four?”
Davin was baffled, “… Yes, about this matter…”
“Are you dumb for doing such a thing! Are you aware of the consequences? I reckon you should really go for training in I Nation!”
Having to endure such scolding, Davin cried injustice from within.
“Evan, the dissolution is not real. We are just putting on a show.”
Evan was confused, “Do you have nothing better to do? Why would you put on a show that benefits nobody?”
“No, not at all. I… It’s not that I’m doing this for fun. I couldn’t eat for these few days because of this! Evan, there’s been a very complicated situation at home. Don’t bother about it while you’re on vacation, Kyle and I will solve it.”
Evan raised an eyebrow. He recalled the previous phone call that he had where Kyle mentioned that he had some disagreements with Davin. He knew that things were convoluted at that time. It seemed like there was really something going on at home.
“Is this related to the disagreement you and Kyle had?”
“Me and Kyle… Evan, we weren’t fighting at all. We’re fighting a battle together.”
“What battle? Get to the point.”
Davin sighed deeply. It’s alright to just tell Evan since he would find out sooner or later.
After having a moment of hesitation, he only revealed that Monica had sought revenge from the Seet Group. He purposely hid the fact that Nina, Maya and Sophia had been kidnapped.
