Chapter 1163
Meanwhile, in Winters Corporation’s headquarters, George’s gaze became cold and profound after he
put down his phone.
“Mr. Winters, Ms. Ninian-”
“She must be hiding something from us,” George said in a low voice. “Was the person who showed up
in Ufrya last time Everett from the Craig family? Why can’t we find out that particular information until
now?”
((
“Um…” His assistant, Calder Gibson, looked troubled.‘ Their skills are really advanced. It was only after
we invited Mr. Alden for assistance that we discovered information related to the Craig family. But there
is still no evidence that shows this is related to Mr. Everett
Craig.”
((
Calder paused for a moment before he carefully asked, Mr. Winters, how do you know that he’s
connected to Ms. Ninian?”
George remained silent for a while without answering.
Could he say this was a man’s sixth sense?
As a control freak hovering over his sisters, he was extremely sensitive over these matters.
“He saved Ninian when she was in trouble previously,”
George said. Since the previous incident was related to the Craig family, he thought of Everett by
reflex, and his sixth sense told him that Everett must have something to do with this.
Calder said, “Okay, Mr. Winters, we will continue the investigation.”
“Give me news as soon as possible.” George nodded and added, “Increase two more points of royalty
for me in the nano–medical project with the Craig family.” He needed to make the Craig family lose
some money.
Calder was stunned, and he hesitated to speak.
George had tolerated and held himself back when it came to the Craig family in the past. He even
helped and protected Everett after he knew that Everett had joined the entertainment industry.
However, he immediately changed his decision when it involved Ms. Ninian. Increasing the royalty by
another 20 % for the already profitable project was really going too far!
“Why are you still standing here? Why aren‘t you proceeding?” George asked.
Calder wiped his face, but he still dared not raise an objection to the demon. Instead, he held the
documents and left to discuss it with the Special Assistance Group. George cast a glance at the laptop,
and Everett‘s latest
endorsement coincidentally popped up in the entertainment news. He snorted coldly before he
slammed his laptop shut.
This attention seeker was such an eye–sore!
The more George thought about it, the angrier he got. He took out his phone and called Harold.
“I asked you to look after our sisters. Are you doing a good job?”
At that moment, Harold was in the lab fighting with his latest discovery of AI technology. When he
received the call from George, he felt baffled.
–
“Huh? Why are you saying that?” When George heard him, anger instantly filled his chest.“ Harold
Winters! Do you want me to die from anger? If you continue being so sloppy, others will get to Grapie!”
Hearing that, Harold’s expression instantly changed.” What? Who dares to steal my sister?! I‘ll kill him!”
“Hmph! You better do as you say!” George said. “I don‘t care what you‘re doing now. Fly to Ufrya and
protect Mel, as well as Grapie, right now. If anything happens to them, you‘ll end up with a broken
head.”
After George said that, he hung up.
Harold found himself speechless. His position as the younger brother was at risk.
When he recalled George’s words, he narrowed his usually unserious eyes, and they were menacing.
Last time, Grapie told him that a schoolmate was going after her, so they kept her by Melody’s side in
Ufrya.
He had wanted to guard her personally at first, but a breakthrough was discovered in the laboratory,
and a rare collaborator also offered to work with him, so he immediately ran back.
As he thought about George’s reaction, he wondered if Grapie’s schoolmate had gone after her again.
No way!
He had to go back there and watch her. Anyone who wanted to go after his sister had to fight him first!
After Harold left the laboratory, he said to his staff at the side, “Book a flight to Ufrya for me. I’m going
over to watch her this instant!”
