300 The Contract

Keira and the others stood near the elevator, and thus, as soon as Ellis and Ken stepped out, they saw the group up ahead and quickened their pace.

Keira’s group also noticed them. Wayne immediately ceased his prior threats and, smiling, looked at Ken. “Ken, what a coincidence! Are you and Mr. Ellis… going

Ken, however, didn’t answer the question. His gaze swept over the group, clearly noticing the aggression on Wayne’s face and the grievance in Mary’s eDaviss.

understand the technical aspects, but he also thought that a research finding worth several billion was far-fetched, after all…

Ellis burst into laughter and said what Ken was thinking. “A research and development project worth several billion? If there were such projects, you could apply for a patent, even win an award, right? So far, very few achievements in the new energy industry can reach that mark. Keera, if your company had such a talent, you would have taken off already. Would you
