His abrupt question startled Nicole.
“Levant, I shall not marry you.”
“Nicole, you will. You definitely will.”
Saying his piece with utmost confidence, Levant soon ended the call.
Staring at the screen that was gradually dimming, worry started to creep its way into Nicole’s mind. What does he mean by that? He’s not planning to do something, is he?
Evan drove over to Seet Group. Just as he entered the president’s office, John rushed toward him with a stack of documents.
“Mr. Seet!”
Evan raised his head to meet John’s gaze. “Yes?”
With a grave expression, John responded, “Something has gone terribly wrong with the K Nation project.”
At that, he handed the stack of documents to Evan.
Evan took it and slowly read through them. The further he read, the darker his expression grew.
Amongst the eight major projects that Seet Group had in K Nation, four had been stolen. Moreover, the other party had taken them away at an absurdly low price. Evidently, the other party had something against Seet Group.
“Who did this?” Evan tossed the documents onto the table.
Having expected such a reaction from Mr. Seet, John eventually replied, “We haven’t discovered who it is yet. However, I’m afraid that the other party might be rather powerful, seeing as they’ve had the courage to go up against Seet Group.”
The first person who came to Evan’s mind was Levant. He’s the only one who would have the capability to do as such!
However, even Levant was unable to steal four projects in one go.
Levant’s biological father was Murphy, an arrogant and fearless man. In K Nation, he was a prominent figure, and this seemed to be an awful lot like his doing.
With that thought in mind, Evan promptly instructed John, “Make Murphy the focus of your investigations.”
“Of course, Mr. Seet.”
John then exited the president’s office and immediately assigned his subordinates to carry out the task.
In the office, Evan was seated on his chair as his slender fingers slowly tapped the surface of the table. His sharp eyes were narrowed as he ruminated on the matter.
He had a strong feeling that this was related to Levant.
Although Levant had arrived at the country after Nicole had regained her memories, he seemed to have yet to do anything; he had kept an exceptionally low profile.
With how devoted he was to Nicole, and with how he had gotten Nicole to lose her memories, Evan was sure that he would not have easily given up.
So, does this mean that he’s finally making a move?
Levant, no matter what you do, I’ll look forward to it.
You’d better not think of laying a finger on Nicole.
After settling Seet Group’s matters, Evan then drove toward Lane Corporation.
The situation at the Lane Corporation was as he had expected. Nicole’s absence from the office meant that the company was in a mess. Most of the core problems had yet to be solved, and there were a handful of minor issues.
After reading the reports of Lane Corporation’s recent situation, Evan realized that it direly needed talented people for its management level. Hence, he immediately called John, telling the latter to transfer a few capable employees over.
Upon receiving his instructions, John was stumped.
“Mr. Seet, we’re not of the same level as Lane Corporation. No one will give up their job in a major company like Seet Group to go over to Lane Corporation.”
“Well then. Make the wages for the positions in Lane Corporation higher than in Seet Group. I’m sure that they’ll agree then.”
“Mr. Seet, that solves the problem. I’ll work on it right away.”
Upon ending the call, John instantly carried out Evan’s instructions, emphasizing that the pay in Lane Corporation was much higher than that in Seet Group. In the blink of an eye, John transferred over four employees who had expressed their interests.
Meanwhile, John was sighing to himself. Evan has done everything for Lane Corporation, and now, he’s even taking out his own employees for the other company. Why can’t he merge the two companies together?
In any case, the two companies will become one after Mr. Seet gets married to Ms. Lane.
John nodded to himself. I think that I can make this suggestion to Mr. Seet when he’s in a good mood. Perhaps he’ll work on it earlier.
