“So, Mr. Lewis, there’s something you might need to help us with. As we agreed last time, if the middle-aged man’s car uses your company’s brand, the overall technology on that car, Mr. Lewis, will be directly transferred to our military, right?” Martin Yoder began quickly.

“It is. What’s the matter?” asked Finn Lewis, sounding slightly puzzled.

“I wonder if Mr. Lewis still has any leftover car armor materials? We can make a purchase,” Martin Yoder said, sounding a bit anxious.

“Eh, may I ask what it’s for?” Finn Lewis hesitated. He indeed had the said material, which didn’t cost much when exchanged for points. Such stuff wasn’t considered valuable by Zero, yet for the military, the armor performance of the Xuanyuan Sword series car shell was superb.

“Well, let me check first. If you could provide it, Mr. Lewis, how soon can we get the materials? We need about the entire armor panel of a car.” Martin Yoder continued quickly.

“I have some in the local warehouse in China. If needed, I can go to Bashu City now and then take my private plane back. It will take about 4 hours to get it,” Finn Lewis replied decisively, not knowing what Martin wanted the stuff for. Just the opportunity given by Major Yoder was a favor deserving to be done.

Those around him looked somewhat taken aback. A private airplane? Wasn’t it said that Finn Lewis didn’t have much money? Almost bursting into laughter, Norton James thought ‘Can you flaunt any more excessively? Even a private airplane is involved. How many private airplanes are there in the whole country?

“Mr. Lewis, can’t you make a phone call so that our people can directly go to the warehouse for pick-up?” Martin Yoder asked urgently again.

Even with the speed of the army, it wouldn’t be possible to get the goods to the relevant place within 10 minutes, let alone these materials still needed Finn Lewis to place an order.

“No, it must be me personally going to the warehouse, they wouldn’t release such materials without seeing me,” Finn Lewis said, plainly.

“Alright, I know where you are, Mr. Lewis. I’ve arranged a helicopter to pick you up. Moreover, we hope to get the materials as soon as possible due to some special circumstances. We desperately need the materials. Is it okay with Mr. Lewis?” After hesitating a bit, Martin continued. If the military wanted to forcefully take the materials, nobody would dare to stop it. But they had to know the location of the warehouse first, and that depended on Finn Lewis’ willingness to tell them.

“Damn, what happened?” Finn Lewis asked, instinctively. This seemed to suggest something big was going on.

“Well, there was a minor problem with a small-scale pile experiment that requires your materials,” Martin explained after a pause. Upon hearing about this, Finn was a bit startled. A pile? If there was an issue with it, lives are in danger.

“Let them come and pick me up. I’m returning to Celeston City now,” Finn Lewis said flatly. The materials were cheap, but if the pile exploded, the ensuing disaster would be far more consequential than just killing a few people. He couldn’t just ignore this.

“They will be there in no more than five minutes,” Martin Yoder agreed and then hung up.

After the call ended, everyone in the room wore strange expressions, all stealing glances at Finn Lewis. Some of them weren’t sure what had happened, while others thought Finn was grandstanding. It was clear to everyone that Norton James and Finn Lewis didn’t get along.

“Grandfather, I’m sorry, but I might need to leave. An emergency has come up, and I need to return to Celeston City,” said Finn Lewis, turning around to address his grandfather respectfully.

“Go on then. Your duty comes first. It’s the thought that counts,” replied the old man. He didn’t know what was going on, but if Finn said so, he wouldn’t object.

“So, are you trying to run away before I expose your true character?” Norton James scornfully asked. He didn’t believe for a second that the call Finn had just received was genuine. Add to this, the fact that Finn announced he had to leave sounded suspiciously like he was trying to run away. Norton James didn’t care what others thought at the moment.

“What true character?” A sudden voice came from among the old man’s children, and all the adults began to look at Finn questioningly at Norton James’s words.

Norton James’s eyes lit up, and he quickly spoke up, “Auntie, this afternoon when I was chatting with Kay, and this Kay’s boyfriend, he accidentally admitted that he’s been living off Kay’s money. Though I don’t know what he has told you, but if he really had his ‘personal airplane’ as he claimed, why would he need to use Kay’s money? I think he’s a fraud. Kay must not fall for it.”

“I can attest to this. He did say this in the afternoon,” Thunder Davis quickly added his voice to the discussion.

“Little Lewis, you owe me an explanation. This afternoon, you claimed that your company was worth over a billion, didn’t you?” At Norton James’s words, Cypress Davis’s face turned somber and he asked darkly.

Finn Lewis was speechless. Damn it, couldn’t you tell I was joking this afternoon?. But before Finn Lewis could speak, Kay Lee became anxious and quickly said, “Grandfather, Finn isn’t like that. How could he possibly live off my money? You should know, that…” Kay wouldn’t let anyone slander Finn, and at this point, she felt like she had no choice but to expose Finn’s real identity.

Kay had not wanted to reveal Finn’s identity because she knew very well what kind of people her relatives and Davis Clan members were, and that Finn was very generous. However, when Kay was just about to spill the beans, Norton James cut her off, “Kay, stop shielding him. He’s nothing but a con artist, boasting about owning private planes and acting like a Major. Now, why don’t you explain again, who was the ‘Major’ you were chatting with on the phone?”

Just as Finn was about to speak, a humming noise came from overhead, and it was getting louder. Finn gave Norton James a calm look, then turned back to the old man, “Grandfather, I apologize, but the people who will pick me up are here. I’ll personally come to apologize some other time.”

Without even looking at Norton James, Finn turned to Kay and said, “I’m sorry, Kay. I promised to stay for grandfather’s birthday but something urgent came up that requires my attention.”
