At noon, at the sorority table, Kairol, who knew that Audrey was injured, chattered and complained that Audrey was too out-of-the-box, and only after Audrey repeatedly assured that she would no longer keep it secret and that the injury was indeed not serious, Kairol let her go and turned the fire on Evan.

"Say, even I noticed, how did you find out?"

When questioning, Kairol looked at Evan's eyes and looked at the perverts, the big bad wolf, and other creatures that needed to be dismantled.

Instead of paying attention to the eventful Cairol, Evan tilted his head to one side and ignored her question.

This action directly made Loel go berserk, and when he was about to open his mouth and count, he was appeased by Audrey.

"Kairol, alright, Evan knows because he saw bruises from the cat I fed yesterday. ”

This is the explanation that Evan said to Audrey, and Audrey relayed it truthfully. Audrey knew that Evan must have been hiding a lot, but she didn't pursue it.

Involving her younger brother, Virginia, who is not easy to interject, heard this, and glanced at Evan who pretended to be relaxed with a smile, haha, I caught it, and said that I don't like Audrey, hum, don't you like people to care so much?

Finally appeased the plummeting Kailoer, Audrey inadvertently glanced at Evan, Evan with the opposite side of the face couldn't see the expression, but somehow, Audrey suddenly felt a heat behind her ears, and her face gradually blushed.

"What a hero, liar!

A week after agreeing to become Evan's partner, Albert made another weekend at the governor's residence. This time he didn't come to the door alone, and he was accompanied by a hairy young man with the same surname Patton.

His name was Carl Patton, nominally Albert's assistant, who would assist Evan with the patent filing, but he was in fact Albert's son. Albert took him with him and introduced him to Evan in order to get him into Evan's circle in the name of it.

Carl Patton looked like a fledgling young man, in fact he was in his twenties, three years after graduating from Princeton University Law School, but he was often looked down upon because of his naturally fair and slightly childish face.

Evan, who met for the first time, was no exception.

No, Evan signed the large stack of papers Albert had brought, and from time to time he looked at Carl with suspicion.

Carl was surprised, and said with a baby-like flawless smile: "Evan, please don't doubt it, I'm twenty-five." ”

Evan retracted his gaze, and after signing the last power of attorney, he was not embarrassed to be caught peeking at all, and sighed generously: "Yes, God's aesthetics are really amazing!"

Karl's face stiffened and he said, "I'm praising God when you." ”

At this time, Albert, who had greeted the hostess, came over, and Evan handed the signed documents to Albert, who checked them and put them in his briefcase.

"Okay, Evan, with these documents on the company side, you can complete the process as soon as next week, and then you will be the owner of a company. ”

Albert patted his briefcase and said, "The next key is the patent application, Carl has plenty of experience in this area, and I hope you can have a good time working together." ”

Evan looked at Carl, for Albert's sake, he decided to believe in his ability, nodded and said, "Of course, we will do it as soon as possible." ”

After sending Albert away, Evan called Carl to his room and explained in detail the details of the instant noodle-related patents.

Patents are easy to say, but difficult to say. The simplicity of it is that as long as you can afford it, you can patent any idea. The difficulty lies in the fact that an invention or idea that can actually obtain a patent grant must meet the necessary conditions, namely novelty, inventiveness and practicality.

In his previous life, Evan, as an engineering professor, had applied for patents many times, so the information he gave Albert about instant noodles was actually complete enough for a patent, but in order to insure and improve the claimed part of the patent, Albert asked Carl and Evan to have a good exchange.

After all, since the birth of the patent system, there have been many cases of people taking advantage of loopholes and thus losing their interests because patents are not well written.

The exchange between the two lasted until the afternoon, so Karl's lunch was settled at the official residence. Virginia, returning from a shopping trip, sees Carl at the dinner table, her eyes lit up. Unlike Evan, Virginia had known Carl for a long time, but hadn't seen each other in years.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Karl understood everything he should have understood, and offered to take his leave. Before leaving, Evan remembered that he had something to do and asked him to tell Albert.

Leaving the residence, Carl returned to the law firm. Although it was a weekend, the owner of the office and his father did not rest and was still busy.

"Old Barton, I'm back!"

Albert at the desk didn't raise his head and said, "Good work, little Barton." How?"

While taking off his coat, Carl said: "It's going well! I am sure that I will get the authorization letter within a month for the patent, and I am talking about a series of supporting patents including formula, production process, etc. ”

Albert looked up, looked at Carl and said, "I'm not just concerned about patents. ”

"What else could it be but a patent?" Karl hung up his clothes, easily found a glass, poured himself a glass of champagne, took a small sip, and raised his glass to Albert: "Would you like a glass?"

Albert waved his hand and declined his son's invitation, "Evan Warren, our Governor's son!"

Carl came to the desk, sat down on half of his buttocks, put the wine glass in his hand, thought for a moment and commented: "He has solid knowledge of science and engineering, knows engineering drawing, doesn't care much about his father's work, and doesn't have the frivolity and restlessness that he should have in adolescence." ”

At this point, Carl smiled and asked Albert, "Old Barton, are you sure he's a tenth-grader?"

"To be honest, when he and I discussed how to write a patent claim, I even thought he was a graduating MIT graduate. ”

Albert smiled slightly, "It seems that you have a good impression of him, in that case, after this authorization is obtained, you should resign from the firm." ”

"Well, okay!" Carl had already prepared for Albert's arrangement, and after taking a sip of champagne, he asked with interest, "So, my next stop is this leather bag company called Alphabet?"

"That's right!" Albert nodded, looking at the bottomed wine glass in Carl's hand, the wine worm churned in his stomach, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help but ask, "Give me a drink!"

Karl happily said, "Yes, old Patton!"

After a few moments, the two glasses touched slightly.

"Cheers to the future!"

"Cheers to my new job!"
