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.”
