Chapter 1163
Meanwhile, in Winters Corporation’s headquarters, George’s gaze became cold and profound after he put down his phone.
“Mr. Winters, Ms. Ninian-”
“She must be hiding something from us,” George said in a low voice. “Was the person who showed up in Ufrya last time Everett from the Craig family? Why can’t we find out that particular information until now?”
“Um…” His assistant, Calder Gibson, looked troubled.‘ Their skills are really advanced. It was only after we invited Mr. Alden for assistance that we discovered information related to the Craig family. But there is still no evidence that shows this is related to Mr. Everett Craig.”
Calder paused for a moment before he carefully asked, Mr. Winters, how do you know that he’s connected to Ms. Ninian?”
George remained silent for a while without answering.
Could he say this was a man’s sixth sense?
As a control freak hovering over his sisters, he was extremely sensitive over these matters.
“He saved Ninian when she was in trouble previously,”
George said. Since the previous incident was related to the Craig family, he thought of Everett by reflex, and his sixth sense told him that Everett must have something to do with this.
Calder said, “Okay, Mr. Winters, we will continue the investigation.”
“Give me news as soon as possible.” George nodded and added, “Increase two more points of royalty for me in the nano–medical project with the Craig family.” He needed to make the Craig family lose some money.
Calder was stunned, and he hesitated to speak.
George had tolerated and held himself back when it came to the Craig family in the past. He even helped and protected Everett after he knew that Everett had joined the entertainment industry.
However, he immediately changed his decision when it involved Ms. Ninian. Increasing the royalty by another 20 % for the already profitable project was really going too far!
“Why are you still standing here? Why aren‘t you proceeding?” George asked.
Harold found himself speechless. His position as the younger brother was at risk.
When he recalled George’s words, he narrowed his usually unserious eyes, and they were menacing.
Last time, Grapie told him that a schoolmate was going after her, so they kept her by Melody’s side in Ufrya.
He had wanted to guard her personally at first, but a breakthrough was discovered in the laboratory, and a rare collaborator also offered to work with him, so he immediately ran back.
As he thought about George’s reaction, he wondered if Grapie’s schoolmate had gone after her again.
No way!
He had to go back there and watch her. Anyone who wanted to go after his sister had to fight him first!
After Harold left the laboratory, he said to his staff at the side, “Book a flight to Ufrya for me. I’m going over to watch her this instant!”
