Juan snickered. “They’re Uncle Davin’s kids.”
Kyle turned to look at Davin before he frowned.
“He can give birth to lambs? Then can he give birth to puppies too?”
Evan was amused by his question.
He lowered his gaze to look at Davin and mumbled, “Of course he can. Sounds like a good idea for him to give birth to a handful of them.”
“Pfft!”
Some of the bodyguards behind them could not contain their laughter.
“Shut up! Shut up, all of you! Great, even John is laughing at me.”
Davin jabbed a finger at him furiously before looking around.
However, there was nothing reachable that he could use.
He heaved a sigh. If there’s a brick around, I’d have smacked it right on John’s head.
Evan peeked into the house and reminded Davin, “Be sincere when you apologize. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?”
“I’ll leave you here and let her take care of you.”
Instantly, Davin thought of what he had done to Sheila previously.
That woman was still asking him to apologize to her personally even when he was in such a miserable state.
If she were the one to take care of him, he was sure he would lose a limb or two.
“Evan, I’ll do whatever you want. Please don’t leave me here in her witch’s den!”
“It depends on your performance.”
Right then, Sheila walked over to them with her hands behind her back.
“Mr. Seet, you’re as efficient as the rumors say. You’re quick to send this almost useless man who lacks a brain-to-mouth filter over.”
Almost useless.
Lacks a brain-to-mouth filter.
The words shrieked in Davin’s mind like banshees, and he nearly had a heart attack.
If I weren’t confined to the stretcher, I’d definitely give her two hard slaps!
“This is nothing. Thanks for taking care of Maya.”
“True. Mr. Seet, you’re still the generous one.”
Sheila gave a thumbs-up to Evan. Then, she circled Davin as she sized him up.
“Davin, I’m not going to waste my time with you. Admit out loud that you’re inferior to me and hand the Northern Suburbs project to me, then you’ll get her back. Does that sound good to you?”
Davin nearly exploded in rage after hearing her words.
“Evan, she’s threatening me! I poured my blood, sweat, and tears to get the Northern Suburbs project. I can’t possibly give it to her!”
And no way am I going to admit that she’s superior to me!
Evan narrowed his eyes.
He knew that Sheila would have terms before he came.
However, he had not expected that Sheila had her eye on Davin’s project.
There were many projects that the Seet Group and the Mu Group could collaborate on, but Sheila had chosen this one.
It seems like Davin and she are really destined to be together.
“Ms. Mu, I can give you any other project, but Davin is the one managing this project, so his approval is needed.”
Evan then glanced at Davin. Now it would depend on who was better at persuasion.
He was sure that an argument was about to play out.
Instantly understanding Evan’s intention, Sheila looked downward at Davin and muttered, “How about this? I’ll go easy on you. You don’t have to admit that I’m superior to you because I know I am. Just hand over the project, and you can bring your niece home. Deal?”
“No deal!”
Davin bellowed out his answer. He had a disadvantage in height as he was on the stretcher, but he was not planning to lose in terms of presence.
Sheila knitted her brows.
“Davin, what kind of uncle are you? Your niece is not as important as a development project?”
“Those are two different matters. Moreover, if I hand the project to someone like you, who’s too lazy to write her name properly, the building’s going to collapse and many people will end up losing their lives. Do you even have a heart? Can you not commit sins?”
“Y-You!”
At the mention of her laziness in writing her name, Sheila seethed.
It had been years since the incident, but Davin still remembered it. Even until now, he refused to quit calling her Sheep.
