Your Father Is Really Terrifying
“H-How could you do this, Dad?” “Sheila, I devoted my whole life to the research lab. If we fail to obtain
funding to continue with the research, our family will be ruined. I’ve got no choice either. I don’t want to
do anything that will hurt the Seet family. Your father-in-law has been carrying on with that woman for
several years now, and I’ve been keeping it a secret for him.
Spending two billion in exchange for a peaceful life for the Seet family, your in-laws’ marriage,
Jonathan’s reputation, as well as the sake of the Muir family’s bright and glorious future is more than
worth it! Evan is a businessman. I believe he knows the right choice to make. I’ll be waiting for your
good news!”
Sheila was utterly dumbstruck. When the call was disconnected, Davin’s expression was as black as
thunder. “Your father… Your father… is-”
Sheila lifted her head and stared at him. “Are you trying to say that my father is despicable? What
about your father, then? If he hadn’t done such an immoral thing, my father wouldn’t have had an
opportunity to be despicable and blackmail the Seet family.”
That left Davin at a loss for words.
Sheila then heaved a long sigh. “Now that things have come to this, Davin, persuade Evan to lend him
the two billion. I’ll repay it on his behalf in the future. With that, we can settle the entire problem.”
“Sheila, it’s not that I don’t want to persuade Evan to give him a loan, but you have no idea what he
wants to do with the two billion. You don’t even know what exactly his research lab is researching. Your
father is really terrifying!”
“What do you mean by that, Davin? Previously, you claimed my father had a bunch of women out
there, and now, you’re saying he’s terrifying. Indeed, he shouldn’t have blackmailed us. But he only did
that because of… of the Muir family!”
“All right, I don’t want to argue with you, Sheila. How about this? Come with me to meet Evan. Then,
you’ll understand everything.”
Davin headed to the parking lot, and Sheila trailed after him.
During the drive, he said nary a word. His eyes were fixated on the road ahead, a faint layer of
gloominess blanketing his face. Right then, he was in an exceedingly foul mood.
He wasn’t thinking about the two-billion loan Patrick demanded but his parents’ relationship.
Throughout the years, his mother had always been the dominant party, whereas his father seemed
relatively weak and faded into the background.
He also knew that his father had definitely suffered some grievances and harbored some resentment to
be with a domineering person like his mother, but he didn’t think it justified him having an affair.
So, he sought what he couldn’t get at home elsewhere.
Sheila peered at him, but she said nothing as well, laden with anxieties.
Over the years, both our families have always been living harmoniously without any conflicts of interest.
I really didn’t expect things to turn into this because of two billion. There was absolutely no need for
Dad to do that. If the Muir family truly needs the money urgently, the Seet family will lend me the money
if I ask, considering my status in the Muir family and the favors I accumulated throughout the years. He
was really foolish to do such a thing. After all, it wouldn’t benefit anyone to rip off the facade of civility.
Besides, our families’ relationship will be affected if Evan were to know that he’s blackmailing us.
She inhaled deeply and pondered how best she should broach the matter when she saw Evan later so
that it wouldn’t strain the two families’ relationship too much.
When they arrived at Imperial Garden, she purposefully reminded Davin not to run his mouth in front of
his brother.
Davin looked at her with a complex look in his eyes before he walked into the living room.
At the sight of them both, Nicole, who had just returned from Bernian Hospital, was very much
surprised.
“Why did you two come together?”
“We’re here about a serious matter, Nicole.” Sheila’s expression was solemn.
“Where’s Evan?” Davin asked.
Sensing something off about them both, Nicole replied, “He’s in the study.”
Davin headed for the study with Sheila following him upstairs. Nicole deliberated silently for a moment
before she, too, followed curiously.
