What Separates Me and You

Chapter 61 Let Me Help You

It was none other than Lewis.

He got out of the car and looked at Seth. “You seem pretty free today, Seth.”

With a slight smile, Seth said, “I’m only passing by. It was a coincidence that I bumped into Josephine, so I thought I’d give her a lift.”

“Is that so? It’s a coincidence that I was looking for you too. Let’s go together.”

“Sure, after you.” Seth smiled.

Lewis glanced at Josephine before getting into Seth’s car. Josephine followed suit.

Seth did not mind being the driver for them both. He calmly got into the car, started the engine, and slowly drove into the night.

“You mentioned that you were looking for me? What is it?” Seth asked.

Lewis leaned back a little and calmly said, “It’s about the CRISPR project. I noticed that the company TOPSUN was in the proposal that you handed in. What is your opinion on that?”

Seth replied, “Oh, I selected them after I had a meeting with them. TOPSUN’s electronic technology is impressive, but they are just an alternative option. We don’t necessarily have to work with them. The previous collaboration was with their subsidiary. This time, we’ll be working with the main company. We can trust their technology.”

Lewis said nothing. He seemed to be deep in thought.

Seth continued, “If you don’t want to work with them, I’ll just exclude their company’s proposal tomorrow.”

Lewis said, “No need. There’s always a risk, no matter what company we choose to collaborate with in this project. I suggest we invest directly. Many biotech companies are researching genetic engineering. It would be too risky to do R&D on our own since our technology is not developed. That’s not even mentioning how time and energy-consuming it would be.”

“Yes, you’re right. We’ll discuss this project in detail tomorrow at the meeting.”

Lewis, after responding, then closed his eyes. He said nothing more.

Lewis had quite a say in the company after all those years of being the president. He had already gotten rid of most of the company’s senior members like Robert Alvarez and the others.

others likely did not know it, but Seth did clearly. Robert’s spreading of the shares was not because he was treating everyone equally. It was an endeavor to restrict Lewis. He did not want all of Alvarez Corp to fall into Lewis’ hands. All Robert was
