Chapter 2019 Showing Davin The Documents
“I’ll go with you.” “No, that’s not necessary. It’s best that I talk to my brother alone. It’s easier that way. I’ll keep you updated.” After some thought, Sheila nodded in agreement. “All right then. Do your best to convince him, okay?”
“Don’t worry. I will.” Davin then sent his wife back to the Seet Residence before heading to Imperial Garden. The butler immediately greeted Davin when he saw the man. “Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Davin?”
“Yes. I have an urgent matter to discuss with my brother. Where is he now? In the study?”
“No, sir. Mr. Evan and Mrs. Seet just left for Bernian Hospital.” “What?” Da*n it! I just missed them! Davin hurriedly turned around and ran back to his Maybach.
“Be careful, Mr. Davin!” shouted the butler as he watched the man rush off before sighing, “Even at this age, he still acts like a child. I don’t think he’s ever going to change.”
Davin called to tell Evan that he was on his way to Bernian Hospital and asked his brother to wait for him. Since he knew that Davin had just been to the Muir residence, Evan was not surprised by how urgently his brother wanted to see him. This definitely has something to do with the Muir family.
Afterward, Evan calmly made a phone call to his assistant. “John, I need you to get the documents in the second drawer in my office and send them to me at Bernian Hospital.”
“Yes, Mr. Seet.” When Davin finally reached the hospital, he took a few deep breaths to compose himself before talking to Evan about the Muirs.
“Evan, the advice you gave me the other day; was it about my father-in-law wanting to borrow money from us?”
“So he did make the request, huh? How much does he want?” questioned Evan as though he had already foreseen the future.
“He… He wants to borrow two billion.”
Evan stared at Davin, trying to capture all the subtle expressions on the man’s face before scoffing, “Only two billion?”
Immediately after hearing those words, Davin was stunned.
“What do you mean, Evan? Do you want to lend him more than that? I don’t know why, but Patrick’s trying to develop an anti-cancer drug suitable for all kinds of cancer patients. No experts in the medical field have even come close to achieving something like that! He should’ve just stuck to what he’s good at.”
In response, Evan narrowed his eyes at his brother. “And Patrick told you this?”
“Yes. He said he just needs another two billion to make the research successful, but I don’t share his confidence. What do you think, Evan?”
After some thought, Evan replied, “If he’s that serious about the project, I don’t mind losing two billion just so he can continue to fund it. I’ll consider it my modest contribution to the medicine field. But…”
“But what?”
Suddenly, the two heard a knocking on the door before John walked in.
“John? Why are you here?” Davin thought John was there to talk business with Evan since the assistant carried documents.
Before Davin could complain about his untimely interruption, John quickly explained himself. “Mr. Evan asked for me, Mr. Davin.”
“That’s right,” chimed in Evan before turning to his assistant. “John, please pass the documents to Davin for him to take a look.”
As ordered, John then respectfully handed the papers to Davin, who was starting to get impatient. Davin did not understand why Evan would want him to look at some documents when they were busy discussing his father-in-law’s project.
However, Davin’s eyes widened after he began to read through the papers. When he was finally done reading, his facial expression was as dark as night.
