Evan was startled. Did Davin get himself into big trouble?
âYouâre not going to save me for two billion, Evan? Iâm your sibling! If something happens to me, how will you explain it to our parents and ancestors?â
When his brother did not give a response, he continued, âEvan, if you donât give me the money, then Iâll go to your office. I wonât leave until I get the money.â
Before he could finish, Evan said, âTake the money to leave for I Nation!â With that said, he slammed the phone and hung up.
Leave for I Nation?
No way.
Will you ask me to go to I Nation if you know Iâm asking for the money to save your son?
How dare you say such a thing?
Davin felt relieved after he accomplished the first step. Now, itâs time for the second step. Iâll withdraw money from the company.
After he took the money, he purposely walked out of the company in a panicky state. When Evan received a call from the finance department to inform him of Davinâs departure, he quickly ran after him and followed him secretly.
He wanted to know what trouble Davin had gotten himself into that needed two billion.
Davin deliberately accelerated his car, and John, who was tracking his car from behind, also sped up.
âIt seems like heâs in a rush, Mr. Seet. Did something major happen?â
âFollow closely! Then weâll be able to uncover the mystery.â Evan locked his eyes on Davinâs car during the entire ride.
âYes, Mr. Seet.â John did not speak anymore and focused on tailgating Davin.
They followed him to a slum, where he stopped. Evan frowned. Why did he come here?
Isnât this the place where Nicole is staying?
Unless..
John was equally puzzled.
âMr. Seet, is he actually here to help Ms. Lane?â
Evan narrowed his eyes. Itâs not impossible. Davin had brought Kyle to meet Nicole in secret after all.
Thereafter, Davin came out of the car and hurried to Nicoleâs apartment.
Everything was obvious now.
But Evan couldnât fathom why Kyle, his mother Mrs. Seet and Davin would willingly do anything to help her. How did Nicole gain favor from everyone?
Even Davin would go the extra mile to ask him for money for her sake!
âCome on. Letâs go have a look,â he ordered.
âYes, Mr. Seet!â
Evan walked to Nicoleâs apartment and watched Davin entering her place.
âMr. Seet, we..â
âKnock on the door!â
This wretched woman has the guts to cheat me of my money. I will not let this go!
Iâm going to humiliate her and teach her a lesson.
When Davin heard the knocking, he was secretly delighted. He was worried that his brother would not come into the apartment.
But he had arrived so quickly, which was even better!
Now all he needed to do was to wait for the great show to unfold.
âWho could it be?â
Nicole was alarmed when she heard the knocking. As Sylvia and Sylphiette were waiting for the money, they probably wouldnât come to find her yet. So who could it be?
When Davin saw her hesitation, he was worried that she would not open the door. So he urged her, âSomeone is here, Nicole. Open the door quickly!â
Nicole opened the door with an uneasy feeling. When she saw Evan standing outside the door, a premonition of something unpleasant happening crept into her heart.
âWhat are you doing here?â
Evanâs sharp eyes scanned the room. Davin instantly reacted as if he were afraid his brother would not notice his existence. âWhy are you here, Evan?â He purposely raised his voice and feigned surprise.
Evan barged into the place and deliberately bumped Nicoleâs shoulder on the way in.
Unhappy at this, Nicole snapped, âWho gave you the permission to enter?â
Evan ignored her and came to a halt in front of Davin before he stretched out his palm.
âWhat do you mean, Evan?â
Davin pretended not to understand.
âGive my card back to me!â
âCard?â Davin answered uneasily. âYou agreed to give me two billion. How could you go back on your word and ask me to return it?â
After hearing this, Nicole realized that when Davin said he managed to accumulate the amount of money needed for the ransom, he had actually asked for it from Evan.
No wonder he could get the money on such short notice!
âThis money should not go to waste,â Evan replied while taking a glance at Nicole. âI would advise you not to have any funny ideas and try to cheat others of their money.â
