“Little K.’
“*** you!” Kai’s glad expression disappeared in an instant. “How many times have I told you guys not to call me Little IQ”
‘It feels like they’re looking down on me!’
Who is it? Floyd said in a resounding voice as he came out with a baseball bat in hand.
Seeing Maverick, Floyd excitedly came forward. “Mav!”
Maverick accepted the hugs from the three men in the family. Grant was the most self-
restrained one, but he still could not hide the upturned corners of his lips.
The butler excitedly ordered someone to prepare a meal and clean out a room for
Maverick.
After three years, the whole family was finally back together.
Joyce frowned at the mess in the house.
“What’s going on here?”
At the mention of this, Floyd became furious again.
“I asked your third brother to cook, but this dumb*ss threw out my treasured Alba white truffle and lied to me saying that he only threw out a deformed potato!”
Floyd got up with his bat and walked over to
Kai, extremely reluctant to let him off the hook.
must beat up this idiot today!”
Grant calmly sat there and looked at
Maverick.
“You’re staying? What’s your next step?’
Maverick took over the glass of sparkling water from Mr. Anderson and took a small sip.
National Laboratories sent me an invitation, so I decided to go there, but it’ll be a month later.”
National Laboratories was a national-level research institute with world-class facilities and state-of-the-art equipment. Many physics geniuses failed to enter as the competition was tough. For Maverick, he had been considering it for a long time before finally accepting the offer.
Grant nodded and expressed approval for
Maverick’s decision.
“Then this month…”
Joyce interjected. “May promised that he’d participate in the research and development of J&L’s project! This way, we won’t let J&L
Corporation lead us by the nose and we’ll surely get the upper hand!”
Grant’s face stiffened. His stunned gaze swept over Maverick and somehow felt a little sorry for his second brother.
“Then… I wish you success.”
‘Is such a small project even worth May’s time?! This sister can really make the best use of anything!’ Grant thought.
After a few days, Maverick was well-rested, so Joyce began to prepare for their move into J&L Corporation.
The weather that morning was just nice, and the air was slightly cool.
Joyce dragged Maverick out the door and went to pick up Tigger from her apartment first.
Tigger heard the commotion and excitedly jumped into Joyce’s arms.
‘Mama! I miss you so much..!
“I miss you too, Tigger. You didn’t mess up the house, did you?”
Joyce looked around and saw that it was spotless. This smart little tiger knew how to use her home’s smart furniture. There were even a few new parcels that looked like little gadgets around the house.
Tigger burrowed into Joyce’s arms and replied sheepishly, “I used credit…”
Joyce was dumbfounded and laughed out loud.
She carried Tigger and turned back to
Maverick. ‘This is Tigger. Tigger, this is my second brother.”
Tigger blinked his eyes as they sparkled with delight. ‘Wow! The Great God! I love you so much!”
Joyce immediately covered its mouth_
Shut up! Don’t be embarrassing!’
Maverick faintly swept a glance at it, picked it up with one hand, and scrutinized it.
“World-class quantum physics system, powerful learning capacity, ability to adjust its temperature and moisture levels according to environment… Who gave you this thing?”
“It’s the girl who added you, Molly Stewart! I exchanged your phone number for it!”
Maverick glanced at her faintly. “Are you even my sister?”
“Molly likes you a lot, so she must’ve uploaded your information into Tigger’s brain, hence this reaction. By the way, she’s also in J&L’s research team, so you’ll. be able to meet her in a while.”
Maverick nonchalantly tossed Tigger to
Joyce, who carefully caught it.
“rigger, let’s go see Molly!”
“I want The Great God to hold me…” Tigger struggled in Joyce’s arms and asked aggrievedly.
Joyce could never refuse any of its requests, so she caught up to Maverick. ”
Second Brother…”
Maverick was used to seeing such AI robots and was clearly not as obsessed as Joyce because he did not have much emotion to things he could manufacture. For him, it was just a machine.
When they arrived at J&L’s lab, Tigger immediately became the crowd’s focus.
“Little Traitor, did you miss us?”
Tigger held his head high and gave a haughty grunt. “Who are you people?”
The crowd was speechless.
After that, someone took Tigger to Molly
Stewart, Gerard Lichman then led their group of seven to the predetermined location.
On the way there, Gerard looked back at
Maverick from time to time and said, “This gentleman looks a bit familiar…”
Before Joyce had a chance to introduce him, Maverick spoke, “My name is Sunner. I don’t know you.”
Gerard nodded and raised his eyebrows. He did not seem offended by that and said, “Is he a recent graduate? Never mind, he must be good since you brought him.”
Joyce did not take the initiative to mention that she wanted to send Maverick to the core R&D team. She was not interested in io their trade secrets, but as long as she could grasp the latest developments, she had
Therefore, Maverick’s identity need not be exposed.
As soon as she got out of the car, Joyce saw a group of people walking towards them.
Tristan Beckett looked cold and noble as he led a group of seven or eight people.
Gerard stepped forward and said, “It’s a coincidence that the three parties in charge of this project are the three of us bosses!
Mr. Beckett, it’s rare that you’re personally leading your team this time.”
As soon as she heard this, Joyce was irritated.
However, this was business, so she had to look at the big picture.
Tristan’s gaze faintly swept over Joyce and landed on Gerard. I’ve seen the location.
make my own arrangements for other necessities. Since everyone’s here, let’s begin.a
Joyce went in with no intention of greeting hhn.
Tristan glanced to the side and watched her departing back meaningfully.
Gerard went up and patted Tristan’s shoulder, smiling playfully.
*Don’t look. She’s now President Joyce and is more unlikely to look back. You, on the other hand… Are you starting to regret it?’
Tristan’s cold gaze swept over Gerard. His tone was stern as he said, “Mind your own business!”
Gerard laughed and shook his head. “Do you dare to say that your personal involvement in this project is not because of her?”
At first, Gerard did not think that the two exes would get back together, but since that day when Tristan asked him to invite Joyce out for a meal in his stead, he sensed that something was wrong.
Afterward, he felt that his thought was a bit outrageous. Why would Tristan Beckett go back to an ex?
Gerard then dismissed this idea.
However, seeing Tristan here at this moment made him doubtful again.
The two men walked side by side. Tristan frowned slightly and asked, “Do you have the list of people who are representing
Powell Corporation?”
“Yup…”
Gerard sent it to Tristan on his phone. This information was not confidential anyway.
“Sunner? Do you know who this is?”
Gerard casually replied, “A fresh grad, I guess.”
Tristan hooked his lips in silence and did not speak again.
`Joyce is really capable to get a national-
level expert to participate in a business project, and so easily at that! How unexpected!’ Tristan thought.
Tristan had also intended to poach Maverick to participate in this project. With Maverick involved, this project was a sure win!
He thought, ‘I guess it’s a coincidence…’
Gerard found it strange that Tristan Beckett would pay attention to a student.
