Evan was startled. Did Davin get himself into big trouble?
“You’re not going to save me for two billion, Evan? I’m your sibling! If something happens to me, how will you explain it to our parents and ancestors?”
When his brother did not give a response, he continued, “Evan, if you don’t give me the money, then I’ll go to your office. I won’t leave until I get the money.”
Before he could finish, Evan said, “Take the money to leave for I Nation!” With that said, he slammed the phone and hung up.
Leave for I Nation?
No way.
Will you ask me to go to I Nation if you know I’m asking for the money to save your son?
How dare you say such a thing?
Davin felt relieved after he accomplished the first step. Now, it’s time for the second step. I’ll withdraw money from the company.
After he took the money, he purposely walked out of the company in a panicky state. When Evan received a call from the finance department to inform him of Davin’s departure, he quickly ran after him and followed him secretly.
He wanted to know what trouble Davin had gotten himself into that needed two billion.
Davin deliberately accelerated his car, and John, who was tracking his car from behind, also sped up.
“It seems like he’s in a rush, Mr. Seet. Did something major happen?”
“Follow closely! Then we’ll be able to uncover the mystery.” Evan locked his eyes on Davin’s car during the entire ride.
“Yes, Mr. Seet.” John did not speak anymore and focused on tailgating Davin.
They followed him to a slum, where he stopped. Evan frowned. Why did he come here?
Isn’t this the place where Nicole is staying?
Unless..
John was equally puzzled.
“Mr. Seet, is he actually here to help Ms. Lane?”
Evan narrowed his eyes. It’s not impossible. Davin had brought Kyle to meet Nicole in secret after all.
Thereafter, Davin came out of the car and hurried to Nicole’s apartment.
Everything was obvious now.
But Evan couldn’t fathom why Kyle, his mother Mrs. Seet and Davin would willingly do anything to help her. How did Nicole gain favor from everyone?
Even Davin would go the extra mile to ask him for money for her sake!
“Come on. Let’s go have a look,” he ordered.
“Yes, Mr. Seet!”
Evan walked to Nicole’s apartment and watched Davin entering her place.
“Mr. Seet, we..”
“Knock on the door!”
This wretched woman has the guts to cheat me of my money. I will not let this go!
I’m going to humiliate her and teach her a lesson.
When Davin heard the knocking, he was secretly delighted. He was worried that his brother would not come into the apartment.
But he had arrived so quickly, which was even better!
Now all he needed to do was to wait for the great show to unfold.
“Who could it be?”
Nicole was alarmed when she heard the knocking. As Sylvia and Sylphiette were waiting for the money, they probably wouldn’t come to find her yet. So who could it be?
When Davin saw her hesitation, he was worried that she would not open the door. So he urged her, “Someone is here, Nicole. Open the door quickly!”
Nicole opened the door with an uneasy feeling. When she saw Evan standing outside the door, a premonition of something unpleasant happening crept into her heart.
“What are you doing here?”
Evan’s sharp eyes scanned the room. Davin instantly reacted as if he were afraid his brother would not notice his existence. “Why are you here, Evan?” He purposely raised his voice and feigned surprise.
Evan barged into the place and deliberately bumped Nicole’s shoulder on the way in.
Unhappy at this, Nicole snapped, “Who gave you the permission to enter?”
Evan ignored her and came to a halt in front of Davin before he stretched out his palm.
“What do you mean, Evan?”
Davin pretended not to understand.
“Give my card back to me!”
“Card?” Davin answered uneasily. “You agreed to give me two billion. How could you go back on your word and ask me to return it?”
After hearing this, Nicole realized that when Davin said he managed to accumulate the amount of money needed for the ransom, he had actually asked for it from Evan.
No wonder he could get the money on such short notice!
“This money should not go to waste,” Evan replied while taking a glance at Nicole. “I would advise you not to have any funny ideas and try to cheat others of their money.”
