Nicole cleaned her work desk before heading back to Imperial Garden.
The streets were lit up with bright and colorful neon signs, making the night view a beautiful sight to behold.
However, Nicole disregarded all of it with an icy demeanor as she sped through the city.
Davin’s and Sheila’s cars were already parked in the garage when she arrived at Imperial Garden.
“Nicole, you’re finally back.”
“Mommy.”
“Mommy, I missed you.”
Nicole knelt and stroked Maya’s head lovingly. “Have you been a good girl today?”
“Yes! We’ve all been good,” Juan replied as he emerged from the study.
Davin twitched his lips in response. “No, they most certainly have not been good. Not when they used their home to their advantage and showed no respect for me.”
“It was wrong of you to do that. Kyle shouldn’t have cooperated with you,” Juan retorted indignantly.
Nicole was curious to know what had happened.
Davin sighed. “Nicole, you can imagine how difficult it is for me in the company at the moment, can’t you? My uncles’ men are constantly trying to create trouble for me. I have to retaliate.”
Juan pursed his lips. “So you’re thinking of using Kyle’s hacking skills to ruin their project?”
“Yes, I will use my position as president to kick them all out when something goes horribly wrong with their project!”
Kyle sauntered over, crossed his arms, and looked at him coolly. “It’s not in your best interest to do that.”
Juan nodded. “Yeah, the projects they’re working on also belongs to Seet Group. It would be Seet Group’s loss as well if something goes wrong with these projects.”
“Daddy would never allow that.”
“That’s right!”
Davin sighed and wallowed in self-pity as he watched his two nephews gang up on him.
“I really don’t want to see them anymore! They’re always telling me what to do and are constantly looking for an excuse to stir trouble. I’m almost out of patience now.”
“Even so, you shouldn’t have been so selfish and inconsiderate.”
“My dear Juan, don’t get me wrong, I’m just trying to weed out these good-for-nothings. It would also be in the company’s best interest as it is mine to do so.”
The two kids exchanged looks silently, pursed their lips, then said simultaneously, “Excuses!”
Davin was rendered speechless as he facepalmed himself.
He was mentally exhausted from work and had wanted to seek help here. He never expected to be refuted by these two.
This only served to intensify his hopelessness.
He placed a hand on his chest. “Evan, I miss you so much! You would do the same if you were in my position, right? You would support me, right?”
A glass marble suddenly hit his ass right when he finished speaking. “Ouch! Who did that? Who ambushed me?”
He turned around, but there was no one in sight behind him.
He was puzzled to see all four kids standing in front of him. It couldn’t have been them. But who did it then?
“What’s the matter, Uncle Davin?” Juan asked curiously.
“Someone hit my butt with something.”
“Who?”
“I must have been someone from the yard! I’ll go take a look.”
So, Davin rubbed his butt and headed outside. There was no one else present besides, two maids sweeping the courtyard and Yoda watering the plants.
Was it one of them?
Davin observed them for a while and finally locked his target on Yoda.
He stormed up to Yoda. “Was it you who threw something at me just now?”
Yoda shook his head without looking at him.
“It’s not you?” Davin moved his gaze towards the two maids. “It couldn’t have been them either.”
He then fixed his gaze on Yoda once more. “It must have been you!”
Yoda shook his head once again.
Davin began to size him up slyly. His build and temperament are very similar to Evan’s. As for his face…
