Chapter 2030 Black Technology
Evan and Nicole looked at each other, neither understanding what exactly Davin meant by his incoherent reply. “Start from the beginning and make things clear!”
Since Evan had said as much, Davin began recounting the turn of events. Sheila wanted to stop him, but Evan snapped at her.
“Evan, it all started like this… In order to dupe Sheep to go to the research lab with me to investigate the black technology my father-in-law is researching, I lied to her. I said… I said that he kept a bunch of women at the research lab and dallied with them all besides hoping to use them to research the secret technique to eternal youth.”
“What? You lied to me? How dare you, Davin Seet!” Sheila roared. “And then?” Evan questioned.
Davin stole a glance at his wife before he promptly retracted his gaze. “Then, Sheep went with me to the research lab to catch him in the act. However, there was no sign of him when we arrived. We even learned that he went to Jazz Winery to make a son with a woman. And so, we rushed over.” “And?”
At that, Davin sighed. “The surprise came here. We found the room, but upon entering, we discovered that the person who was messing around with another woman wasn’t Patrick. Instead, it was… it was…” he stuttered, the words stuck in his throat.
“Who was it?” Nicole’s curiosity was piqued. “It was our father-in-law!” Sheila interjected. What?
Nicole was both shocked and surprised. Even Evan never expected such a thing.
“Patrick said Dad has been carrying on with that woman for several years now. He’s currently using this matter to blackmail us for a loan of two billion. If we don’t lend him the money, this matter will be leaked to the media. Once that happens, it’ll make the trending list, and Dad’s reputation will be ruined in his old age. Also, our parents’ marriage will probably come to an end.”
The news came so suddenly that Evan and Nicole were in a stupor for a long while. They needed some time to digest and sort the entire matter while also considering the consequences.
During the lull, Sheila got up and strode over to Davin, snarling, “You said you lied to me about my father having a bunch of women out there? Why did you do that? And you even slandered him?”
“Sheila, I only did that to have you go with me to the research lab to investigate the black technology your father is researching.”
“What black technology?”
“Your dad was lying when he claimed to be researching anticancer drugs! It’s not anticancer drugs he’s researching but black technology that can steal the secrets of all companies. Once he succeeds, it’ll be tantamount to him having eyes and ears everywhere. He’ll be able to know everything he wants to know, including Seet Group’s private and confidential documents and that of all other companies. At that time, he’ll be everyone’s public enemy, and those in the business industry will gang up on him. Things won’t end well for him.”
Sheila was bowled over. “Are you for real? My father is researching such an impressive thing?”
At her reaction, Davin frowned. “What do you mean by that, Sheep? You sound as though you support him ardently. Think carefully about whether doing so will benefit him in any way. That’s a breach of the rules, violating the bottom line of all businesspeople. Isn’t it good for him to enjoy his golden years at his age? Why must he tire himself such?”
“Why are you so emotional? I was just wondering why he suddenly thought about researching such a thing. He never had such ambition and desire.”
“I think he’s resentful to come second every time, with the Seet family always a yard ahead of the Muir family, so he wants to make something of himself! Furthermore, the fact that he had long since known about my father’s affair proves he started spying on us ages ago with the thought of blackmailing us. He’s really a cunning old fox!” Davin sneered.
