Chapter 474
Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison
The moment they arrived, Georgia broached the question at Ivan curiously.
If it hadnât been because there was too much to deal with and that the security in place had to be perfect, Georgia wanted to do it yesterday.
But that wasnât realistic, after all. They had to exclude the people who had kept their eyes on them, and do safety checks of the facility.
All that took time.
âItâs arranged. You can go over tomorrow.â
Georgia heaved a sigh of relief.
Because sheâd been too hasty, Georgia didnât think to hide it from Emilia and Casey.
âWhat are you doing over here anyway? So much secrecy.â
Casey couldnât help but ask.
Georgia wasnât planning on speaking out about it and gave her mother a prepared excuse.
âThereâs a research project in a biotech firm that Robert and I have invested in that needs a key bit of technology that Ivanâs friend just so happens to have. Weâre going to discuss it with him. That person is a genius, and it might take a lot to persuade him.â
Casey nodded and didnât press the matter.
Emilia, though, found it strange. She knew what status Robert and Georgia had.
At their level, they didnât need to show up in person for business negotiations.
That was strange. How much of a genius was this guy? Needing the bosses to come in person. Emilia didnât suspect too much, though.
Ivanâs coming brought some energy to the house, and like a big boy, he played around with Annie and Wesley.
Georgia observed the process and found that all throughout, Ivan and Emilia had never exchanged a single word. The two really were setting their boundaries.
Georgia understood what was between them.
Robert, though, having forgotten his past, didnât understand, and heâd noticed something was off.
At night, when the two bedded down and spoke, he asked Georgia curiously about what had happened between his brother Ivan and Emilia.
Georgia could only act as a memory bank again and repeat the affairs in brief.
She didnât know all of it, but she knew generally how itâd gone.
âIvanâs a lot like his father especially in love. Sometimes, he gets stubborn and heâs prideful. He might not walk out from this relationship in the next decade. Actually he might end it here.â
âDo you think itâs possible for the two of them to get back together?â
Georgia gossiped. Robert shook his head.
âIâve seen that cousin of yours a few times now. Sheâs got a relaxed personality and never devotes too much into love. If Ivan had dumped her back then, sheâd have walked out from under it by now. Might even have gotten in a few more relationships. The two probably wonât have a future together.
I donât think anyone can fully walk into her heart. Even if they do, once they hurt her, with her personality, I feel like she can chase them away just as easily. These two werenât meant to be together. One takes it too seriously, the other not seriously enough.â
Georgia thought about Robertâs analysis and felt that was the case too.
That was Emiliaâs personality. She was very centered and cared more about her own well-being. She could get in a relationship easily and leave just as easily.
Ivan was worse off, but he was busy travelling the world every day doing surgeries. He lived well and didnât lack money.
Love wasnât that big of a blow.
The two gossiped, then Robert received a call from back in the country.
There was a time gap, so the call was coming at a time like this.
He received the call and looked worried.
Robert sighed at Georgia.
âJasper just called. Still havenât found the child. Selenaâs starting to get mentally unstable. The Holland familyâs hired a psychiatrist, but Selena doesnât seem right. Sheâs lost in her own world now and nobody can wake her. Jasperâs despairing too, and he feels like the child canât be ending up well now.â
âCould it be Jennifer Johnson?â
Georgia spoke about what Jennifer had done last year. This was the closest person who bore a grudge against Jasper.
It was a year ago, but she felt Jennifer was capable of it.
âJasperâs investigated it. Jenniferâs still stuck overseas and has forgotten about everything. Her parents go over to visit from time to time and thereâs nothing off. She doesnât have anything to do with this at least from what weâve found so far.â
That was a heavy topic and they didnât have the mood to chat longer. They slept until daybreak.
Georgiaâs mother had gone back to the hospital last night. They were leaving again today, so Emilia and Casey werenât coming over today.
Ivan drove Robert and Georgia over to his friendâs facility.
This friend of Ivan went by the name of Antonio. He was only twenty-eight, but he was a genius.
He went to college at the age of twelve, graduated with a PhD at twenty, and then was offered high-paying jobs by major pharmaceutical companies all over the world. It was said that he went to several firms, but left after working there for a while for unknown reasons. Seemed like he didnât mesh with the rules and regulations of large-scale companies. He invested in a facility to research what he liked.
Usually, he took outsourced projects from big companies. He ran his own business well and was also did what he wanted. If he wanted to shut down everything and go travel the world, he did that. If he wanted to do research, he took on several projects at once. He lived willful days.
But he was a freak for research. Most of the time, he preferred to stay in his facility and run all sorts of experiments. His interests were very broad.
Heâd chosen the biopharmaceutical business and also had an interest in mathematics, physics, and robotics. Heâd even gotten a robotics degree.
So he got involved in his own experimental tools and designed his own instruments in accordance with the projects he wanted to do.
He either made it himself or cooperated with professionals to produce the tools he wanted.
That was why Ivan was taking them to him for the check.
A lot of the tools and instruments were developed and invented by Antonio either alone or with others, and other places probably didnât have them.
Thatâs why they were forced to come overseas.
Probably only Antonio understood the results. He took on all sorts of strange people and offered free checks and cures for people with unusual, rare diseases. He liked this sort of exploratory work, and the harder it was the more excited he got. For patients in such a situation, he demanded no money at all.

The facility looked more like a factory than some high-end laboratory or a great concrete structure in peak research centers.
Not long after they got out, a dark-skinned man with an unkempt shadow, long hair, and tired eyes walked over.
