Chapter 143: Suspicious

The black Ford sedan was under Bob's control, speeding steadily and quickly down Park Avenue to New York's Grand Central Station.

Evan sat in the back seat with a seatbelt on.

This car was specially prepared by Girard, he knew Evan's problem, and Evan was uncomfortable sitting in the car without seat belts.

After nearly a year of preparation, the seatbelt company SecurityFitting is finally ready to produce seatbelts.

Although the yield is somewhat small.

Moreover, seat belts have not yet become the standard equipment of cars, and if you want to install seat belts, you must pay a lot of modification fees.

Evan folded his hands to his chest, his brow furrowed.

He couldn't figure out the point of the meeting just now.

Is Wicksham really just trying to get to know himself?

Do you need to know how I invented the Rubik's Cube so clearly?

While Evan was asking questions in his mind, he was also reflecting on himself.

In the communication just now, the rhythm is completely in the hands of the other party, and I can only respond passively.

In that case, I almost thought I was participating in a thesis defense or an interview.

I'm going to have to learn from my experience and go back and find a way to learn from Earl.

"Evan ......" Albert saw him with a calm face all the way and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

"It's a little ......" Evan glanced at Albert and said, "Don't you think there's something strange about what Wixham did just now?"

After recalling for a while, Albert nodded and said, "He seems to be very interested in you, and there is a bit of an assessment element in it." ”

Evan said, "Do you think so too?"

"Yes......" Albert bowed, "So, I guess that's what he's really about." ”

"Assessment?"

Why do you want to judge me? Who does he represent? Good or bad......

For a moment, a series of questions popped up in Evan's head.

There are no answers to these questions for the time being.

Evan thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Albert, who does CT Law Firm mainly serve?"

After a moment of silence, Albert replied: "Wicksham's father was attorney general during President Taft, and CT itself has a close relationship with Wall Street......

Taft?

After a while, Albert added: "Evan, I can't tell 100% whether it's good or bad, but since the other party has joined our lawyers, I tend not to have malicious intent. ”

Evan was noncommittal, and his right index finger hooked the wing of his nose.

For no reason, Evan had the same opinion as Albert.

However, for the sake of safety, Evan still decided to ask the heads of each section of his department to report on the recent situation after receiving Nina and them, and see if there was anything abnormal.

An hour later, Grand Central Terminal.

After waiting for half an hour, Evan finally picked up Nina and her party.

A family of five sat in two cars, and the twins naturally rushed to sit in one with Evan.

Coming out of the train station, the twins sitting in the back row occupied one side of the window, looking at the high-rise buildings on both sides of the avenue, and the sisters who came to New York for the first time were shocked and couldn't close their mouths.

When it comes to the density of high-rise buildings, there is no place in the world that can compare with Manhattan.

Evan ...... Is that the Empire State Building?"

"Yes!"

"Evan, look, that building is actually triangular!"

"That building is called the Flatiron Building......"

Not long after passing by the Flatiron Building, the car arrived at the Albert Hotel.

When they got off the bus, the two sisters were still excitedly sharing their joy at seeing the various buildings.

Seeing this, Evan led the two sisters into the hotel and promised them, "When the game is over, Nina and I will take you to visit the buildings." ”

"Great!"

When Evan said this, the sisters couldn't have been happier.

After arranging the room and having lunch, Nina and Robert all showed the fatigue of the long journey. Seeing this, Evan asked them all to go back to their rooms to rest.

In the afternoon, Evan went to the Magic Seven office in Greenwich Village. There, he called Carl and Wells in Los Angeles, Davidson and Chester in Sacramento, and others.

By the time those calls were over, most of the afternoon had passed.

"How?

After confirming Evan's call, Albert walked into the office of the office manager with a cup of coffee.

"Thank you!" Evan took his coffee, took a small sip, and said, "It's business as usual." ”

Just as Evan was suspicious, the young man whom Wiksham called Robert left CT Law Firm early and drove himself across the Manhattan Bridge to a villa in Brooklyn.

This is his residence in New York.

"Good afternoon, young master!"

As soon as he entered the house, he was greeted by a pretty woman dressed as an English maid.

Robert touched the maid's cheek, causing her cheeks to flush, "Miss me, dear sweetheart." ”

The maid lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Robert, but said softly: "I think!"

"Just miss me!" Robert then slapped her on the ass and commanded, "I'm hungry, hurry up and get ready to eat, or I'll eat you!"

"Ah......" The maid called out, and hurriedly replied, "Okay, young master!"

After sending the maid away, Robert sat down on the couch and picked up the phone next to the couch.

"Dash...... Da ......"

After a long time, the call was finally connected.

"Hey, I'm Robert......" After passing the name, Robert said, "Butler, let my mother answer the phone." ”

I just listened to the microphone and said: "Okay, young master, Lady Martha is next to you, and it will be fine right away!"

Sure enough, Robert only waited a few seconds before the phone changed to a gentle old woman's voice: "Robert, is there something wrong?"

Robert put away his hippie smile and replied respectfully, "Good afternoon, dear mother. ”

"Uncle Wixham has seen that kid, and it's a good review. ”

"My opinion is to let Rick stay at Caltech. ”

"Because of the aircraft industry and the shipbuilding industry, California's industrial output has increased very rapidly, and several companies are eyeing it. ”

"Rick is over there, and it might come in handy in the future. ”

"Also, if Rick could be friends with the son of the Californian son, I think it might help the father as well...... Mr. Earle's support in California is extremely high, and if he can get the support of the California caucus, his father will be able to help him more next year. ”

"Mother, what do you think?"

"In that case, so be it!"

The next second, the phone was hung up, and Robert put the microphone back.

Then, after a long exhale, Robert picked up the microphone again.

This is also what he wanted.

"Hey, Rick......"
