Evan, why did you have to bring Nicole out on vacation now of all times?
Ugh. If Nicole hadn’t gotten pregnant, then Evan wouldn’t have brought her out on vacation… Oh, Nicole, why did you have to get pregnant now of all times?
Okay, so Nicole got pregnant now, whatever. But that damned Monica! Why did she have to appear out of nowhere having every intention of hurting the Seet family and company?
Why is life testing me like this?
On one hand was the Seet Group, and on the other was his biological mom’s arm. How was he supposed to choose?
If he really terminated the contracts with those companies, it would cause irreversible damage to the Seet Group. But if he didn’t do so, his dear mother, as stubborn and prideful as she was, might actually lose an arm… He didn’t even want to think about it. He didn’t want to think about how devastated she would be if she lost an arm.
At that moment, John knocked on the door and entered the room. “Mr. Davin, here are the reports for the company’s profits these past few days. Please take a look.”
“Profits, profits, who cares about earning anymore? Put those away!” Davin was all over the place and could barely think straight. How could he be in the mood to check how much money was earned?
“Please calm down, Mr. Davin. Damien and Jensen have already started investigating. You must have faith that they will discover a lead.”
Davin raised his head weakly as he looked at John. “I’ll ask you something: what do you think my brother would do if he were in this position?” He proceeded to describe the ultimatum Monica had given him.
John, too, had a troubled expression after listening to Davin. After thinking in silence for a while, he carefully replied, “Mr. Davin, I’m in no position to say what I think Mr. Evan would do if he were in your shoes. But, I do think that he would come up with a plan that ensures everyone’s safety. He would not let the company suffer any losses, and he would make sure Mrs. Seet’s arm stays intact.”
Davin furrowed his eyebrows together. He already knew that a perfect solution that could ensure the safety of both the company and his mother was the best answer. The question was, what was this solution?
Davin asked again, “If my brother were in my shoes right now, how would he come up with an all-perfect solution?”
John blinked slowly, looking stunned. Why was Mr. Davin asking him? How was he supposed to know?
“Mr. Davin, how about you give a call to Mr. Evan and ask him personally? How could I know even if you asked me?”
Davin went over the suggestion in his mind. “That makes sense. I’ll call Evan up and ask what he thinks.”
Saying so, he picked up his phone and called Evan’s contact number.
