Chapter 641 Foresighted Shawn
"The Larson Family is wealthy, but they are still too early to get a share themselves in the field of technology
compared to us. Therefore, he wants our help in this industry and to make a name for himself. That's why he
proposed a deal where he invests money while I provide the necessary technology."
I smiled and replied, "Sir Larson is quite an ambitious one."
Shawn closed his eyes and said, "He has to be. Now, everything is in my hands, unless he goes to Bryxton and finds
Nicholas. 80% of the Forger Family's properties are related to technology. He won't have any better choice other
than them."
The Forgers made their fortune in technology.
Moreover, the company had been thriving under the leadership of Nicholas.
Shawn got me curious, and I asked, "Why didn't he choose to cooperate with Nicholas?"
Shawn opened his eyes and stared at me before explaining, "May Sommer. She knows Nicholas and they are quite
close. Perhaps Alfred is jealous."
I was surprised, and I continued to ask, "How is that possible? May can't possibly have anything to do with Nicholas.
Sir Larson must be overthinking!"
Shawn only replied, "Don't underestimate men's jealousy, Ray. Men can be just as jealous as women, if not more
so."
I asked, "Are you like that too, Sunny?"
Shawn remained silent when he was asked the question.
"Are you?" I continued to pressure him.
"I am not Alfred," Shawn replied.
What kind of answer is that?
"Forget it. You should get some sleep," I said.
Shawn nodded. "I'll rest for a little while as I have a meeting later. Go and hang out with Kevin and Emma if you are
bored."
"But I don't want to disturb them from their work."
"Emma's team has already entered the final stage in their research and development. She is the least busy person
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin the company right now while Diego is the busiest."
"So, you mean Kev and Emma are the least busy duo now."
Shawn patiently replied, "Yes, that's right. Emma has been wanting to go back to her home country for a while now,
but I've ordered her to stay until this matter is completely resolved."
"Why is Ciara here when the matter is resolved?"
"She was invited by Diego. She promised to invest in new technology research if I agree to it."
Then, Shawn paused for a moment and explained, "All of Emma's patents are under the Xenoses. She has put a lot
of effort into the Xenoses' technology over the years, but she has been slacking off for the past two years, perhaps
it was because of Christopher's appearance. I have let her chill around for two years, but she needs to start
delivering for the Xenoses in the next two years. She also knows my thoughts on this, so she volunteered and
suggested Ciara, and I agreed to include Ciara in the research team."
I replied, "Congratulations on having another talented personnel on board."
Shawn hesitated for a moment before he revealed, "I saw Ciara during the meeting in the morning, and I talked to
her after the meeting ended. I can tell she isn't doing well mentally right now. She may end up snapping if this
continues."
Shawn had studied psychology and could tell how a person was doing mentally. Ciara wasn't in a good spot mentally
according to him.
I recalled what Kevin said earlier at that instant.
He said that Diego was an excellent and proud man who wouldn't care about Ciara. Why would a man like him act
like a saint and save a woman with mental issues?
He was spot on. Diego was never a compassionate one.
Besides, he was impatient with Ciara during their recent conversations.
He was losing patience with Ciara.
Why would Ciara tough it up and accept Diego now?
Was it sorely because of love?
They wouldn't have broken up before if that was the case.
They always had a complicated relationship, and I knew very little about it. So, I was in no position to judge them as
an outsider.
"She needs to see a psychologist doctor," I said.
Shawn nodded, and he spoke as he recalled something, "Ezekiel is the best man for this. I can see that Diego will go
to Ezekiel when Ciara's mental sickness gets out of hand, and Ezekiel won't just help him for nothing. Therefore,
Diego will face a difficult choice when the time comes."
"What choice will that be?" I asked.
"Whether to stay with me or go with Ezekiel."
Shawn spoke as if he could foresee the future.
And he did so based on only Ciara's mental state as well!
Suddenly, I had a new feeling toward Shawn, who was in front of me. I had a hunch that the wits he had shown
before were just the tip of the iceberg. But Shawn had always been like that. I realized the more I knew him, the
more obsessed I was with him.
I asked in confusion, "But there are countless renowned psychologists and doctors in the world. Why are you so
sure that Diego will go to Ezekiel?"
"Ezekiel's reputation is out of this world. Plus, he's also someone Diego knows for a long time. However, whether
Diego has to choose between me and Ezekiel remains to be seen as it depends on whether he is willing to ask for
Ezekiel's help for the sake of Ciara."
I asked in surprise, "What makes you say that, Sunny?"
Were Shawn and Kevin on the same page?!
"It all depends on whether Diego thinks Ciara is worth sacrificing everything for. From what I know of Diego, he may
not go that far, but his feelings for Ciara are genuine."
That's right. Diego's feelings for Ciara are real, and that is enough to make him give up everything for her!
"Are you worried that Diego will betray you, Sunny?"
Shawn grabbed my waist with his hand and answered, "I've said this before, everyone under my command has
done some things behind my back except for Kevin. They know my bottom line, so there's no need to worry. I won't
command with doubts, nor will I command suspicious individuals. That's my principle."
"But you still take suspicious people into consideration."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, Shawn opened his eyes with a smile, and he replied, "It's true that one doesn't have doubts when he
commands, and avoiding suspicious individuals are important. But it's also worth noting that one needs to have a
certain level of judgment and understanding toward the people who are close to him. Anyway, these are all just our
speculations. We'll have to see how things eventually play out. However, mental illness is the hardest disease to
cure in the world."
I agreed. "Look, we've talked and got carried away once again. You should get some rest. I'm going downstairs to
find Kev and have a cup of coffee with him outside."
"Okay, take care of yourself."
I got up from Shawn afterward. On the other hand, Shawn was exhausted. He only let out a sigh before closing his
eyes.
I left quickly as was afraid of disturbing him any further.
After going downstairs, I went to look for Kevin after that. But I heard someone cursing as soon as I pushed open
the door, "Who the heck is going to look for you at this hour?"
I was shocked when I saw Aimes in Kevin's office, and Aimes's face appeared slightly red.
Are they in the middle of something?
I quickly apologized, "Excuse me."
"What brings you to my office, Ray?"
Kevin asked with a smiling face.
"It's nothing! I was going to ask you out for coffee, but I'll go find Ian instead since you're busy. See you, Kev!"
"Wait."
I was surprised when Aimes called out to me.
I answered as I trembled with fear, "What's the matter?"
I hated it when Aimes opened his mouth.
"Didn't you say that you were going to treat us to some coffee?"
I never said that I was going to treat Aimes.
Who wants to treat the likes of you?
Am I inviting trouble for myself?
Just when I was about to refuse, Aimes asked proudly, "What? Am I not good enough to have a cup of coffee with
you?"
