Chapter 201 On the other hand, Flynn was having his meal at hwhen he got the news. He was genuinely shocked. He had expected Sebastian to run into funding issues and cbegging for investment.
But instead, everything had been settled quietly and efficiently.
Flynn could not sit still anymore.
He turned to Justine, who was sitting nearby, and asked, "What's going on? Who did you guys partner with?" Justine didn't even bother to look up. "What does it have to do with you?" Flynn frowned. "Justine, I'm your brother. You're part of the Scott family. Why are you keepingin the dark? This Flying Seal Group project has great potential. I've decided to invest a little and join as a later-stage partner." Justine looked at him like she could not even begin to explain.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFlynn pressed on, lips tight. "But like I've said before, good projects can't afford even the slightest blemish. I know you're close with Evelyn, but you need to think about the bigger picture. Take her off the project team. Truston this-I'm only trying to help." Justine let out a cold laugh and slammed her fork on the table. "Now that everything is ready, you're ready to take a share, huh? Talking about investing now? You must be dreaming!" "Justine! Watch your tone!" Flynn said, clearly displeased.
"There are things I can't tell you because of confidentiality, but I'll say this-stop targeting Evelyn. Otherwise, you're going to regret it when the truth comes to light," she said, then gave his shoulder a friendly pat as she walked away. "Don't even think about getting a share of the project." The truth was, Justine knew that Flynn had once had feelings for Evelyn. But after Evelyn got married and beca full-thousewife, completely focused on Lucas, Flynn's attitude shifted.
The moment he found out, his opinion of her turned sour. That was when the bias set in.
Flynn never understood why Justine would go out of her way to defend someone like Evelyn. In his eyes, Evelyn brought nothing to the table.
So why were Justine and Sebastian so willing to let her cling to them? Still stewing over it, Flynn could not resist. He started reaching out to Brandon and Mason, trying to dig up more information.
At Flying Seal Group, Evelyn had not had a moment's rest all morning. Now that the funding had cthrough, there was a mountain of logistics to sort out.
As for the marital home, she had not even started packing. Most of the stuff left behind belonged to Lucas, and frankly, she did not care.
She was not planning to take any of it with her.
Eventually, it would all be tossed out anyway. She had already reminded him about it. So if he did not handle it, that was on him.
Later that afternoon, just as Evelyn was finishing up spaperwork, Sebastian walked in.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked up. "Did you wrap things up with TechNova Group?" Since they had agreed to move forward with TechNova Group as their manufacturing partner, it was tto iron out the contract details.
Sebastian dropped the contract on the table and gave a dry laugh. "Just like we thought-Tiffany's going to be Tech Nova Group's point person for our manufacturing work. Lucas is definitely training her." There was no doubt about it-putting her in charge of liaising with Flying Seal Group spoke volumes.
Evelyn paused for a second, though she was not surprised. Anyone with a decent eye could see what we of Once the Ο was going with a this project hit the market, Tiffany's portfoas TechNova Group's lead would skyrocket.
"That's his call," Evelyn said as she o,m reviewed the contract and double-checked the terms. As long as he's hot forcing people into our research and development team, I'm fine."
Sebastian clicked his tongue.
"Seriously, what is Lucas thinking? Throwing his mistress into his ex-wife's project-what's he trying to prove?" Evelyn gave it a moment's thought. "If he cared about how I felt, we wouldn't be here in the first place. My feelings don't factor into his decisions." And honestly, she was not about to let it get to her anymore.
Not long after, Justine walked into the office.
Evelyn gently pinched her cheek and grinned. "What's with the long face?" Justine let out a heavy sigh, brow still furrowed. "Just to double-check-you're really selling the house?" Chapter 201 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.
