At the Seet Group.
Davin and Evan were discussing a project to collaborate with K Nation. It appeared that Davin wanted to
ask for Murphy’s help. That way, the Seet Group didn’t need to send anyone over, and the matter could
be resolved.
Even so, Evan disagreed. “No, we must separate work from personal relationships. Uncle Morris is not
part of the Seet Group. If something went wrong with the project and he cannot bear the responsibility,
we must send someone over.”
“Evan, who do you have in mind?” Davin gazed at Evan.
Evan was staring intensely back at him. “What do you think?”
“How would I know?” Davin feigned his surprise.
Davin knew very well that he himself was the most suitable person as he was the director of the project.
Moreover, Evan’s gaze sent a clear message that he wanted Davin to go to K Nation.
Be that as it may, he did not want to head to K Nation. It was not the right time, and there were a lot of
socializing events waiting for him. Furthermore, he wanted to secretly secure a big order from the client
to reinforce his standing in the company!
Evan replied, “You’re from the Seet family, and you’re also the one who’s the most familiar with the
project. Hence, it’s better if you represent the Seet Group!”
Davin had expected this. He sighed and answered, “Evan, I don’t feel like going. I have more important
matters to attend to. In addition, I’m getting married to Sheila! Remember that our Mom is waiting for her
grandchild? How can you send me over there at this time? Please find someone else. I can even give
you some suggestions.”
“If I can find someone else, I will not talk to you about this at all. You can register your marriage with
Sheila first thing tomorrow morning. Then, you can take the flight in the afternoon to K Nation. Regarding
your pregnancy plan, you can try harder after you return. If Mom is restless about this, Nicole and I can
give her a surprise.”
Davin was shocked. “Evan, how could you have given such an excuse? Are you even my brother?”
Nevertheless, Evan brushed off his snarky comment. “You should pose this question to Mom and Dad.
Regardless, it’s my final decision. Anyway, I’ll send Jeremy and Jensen to go with you.”
Davin was utterly frustrated. Guess it’s inevitable that I’ll need to head to the K Nation. But why do I have
a bad feeling about this?
At night, he called Sheila and told her about the plan. Needless to say, Sheila was very surprised.
She exclaimed, “Why the hurry? Can’t we postpone it to some other time?”
“Sheila, let’s make it tomorrow. I’ll need to go on a business trip after that and will only return one week
later.” Davin explained calmly.
“Business trip? Where to?”
“K Nation!”
“K Nation? Oh… I’m not worried at all, actually.” Sheila’s reply caught Davin off guard.
He immediately asked, “Why?” Although you’re not worried, my gut is telling me that something bad is
going to happen.
“Because Uncle Morris and Uncle Stephen are at K Nation. If anything happens, they can lend a helping
hand.” Her reply was assuring.
I most certainly hope so. Before putting down the phone, Davin reminded, ”Sheila, I’ll pick you up
tomorrow after having breakfast. Remember to dress up and wait for me!”
“All right! However, it’s just registration for our marriage. We’re not getting married just yet. There’s no
need to dress up too much, but I’ll put on something nice.” Sheila smiled at his loving request.
Davin replied, “You look good in anything. Anyway, I’ll pick you up on time tomorrow.”
“Sure.” Sheila put down the phone.
Sheila was enraptured when she hung up. Almost immediately, she conveyed the good news to her
parents.
While Layla was delighted at first, she quickly became worried thereafter. “Sheila, I think that it’s too
hasty.”
Patrick was also worried. “Sheila, I feel the same way as well. Before the two of you proceed with the
marriage registration, it’s better if the parents from both families sit down and discuss the marriage. I
mean, we should at least meet up for dinner or something!”
“Ah… I understand, Mom and Dad, but Davin is busy as he needs to go on a business trip after the
marriage registration!” Sheila couldn’t figure out how to accommodate her parents’ demands.
After a while, Patrick suggested, “What about tonight? We can have dinner with him and his parents.
Then, the two of you can get registered for your marriage tomorrow!”
