Chapter 315

“My teeth start aching just when I hear what you say . Why do you need such so much sweet? And anyway, when did you last sleep?” David wrinkled, their taste preferences with his older brother were like heaven and earth .

Daniel sat up straight and poked his head with his index finger, “This takes glucose to work hard . My brain is not a computer like yours, so forgive this ordinary mortal for his weaknesses . Moreover, I’ve practically not slept for a week . “

“And how is he?”

Daniel realized that his brother was asking about Rick’s condition, but he had nothing to say, “So far, nothing new . Corey has to spend the night in his room so that your friend’s condition is relatively stable . Agh, I don’t even have the strength to be mad at him, I want him to recover quickly . “

“You have to rest, otherwise the consequences for your health, if an outbreak occurs, will be fatal,” Nick looked at Daniel seriously . He knew that his uncle died shortly after the outbreak, but he certainly did not know the reason . Armand always avoided answering when Nick started a conversation on this subject .

“Oh, my charming nephew worries about my health? I’m so happy,” Daniel shone with a contented smile like a Cheshire cat, “Don’t worry, everything will be fine . I still have to fight for my love! So I don’t plan to give up to any illnesses . Moreover, your dad is also not sitting idly by . By the way, what about the preparatory measures?”

David leaned back in his chair and took a sip of coffee, “In the process . I transferred all the offices of Lenali Enterprise to increased activity . If something goes wrong and a pandemic begins, as Nick said, then we will be ready for it in advance and will be able to minimize possible losses among the population . But I couldn’t engage the security services, since they are all secretly subordinate to Marс Technologies . “

“Hmm, well, it’s better than nothing anyway,” Daniel clapped his hands as Nick set a cup of hot chocolate on the table . “Let’s drink for a successful outcome of our plans!” the man lifted a cup of drink into the air, brought it to his lips, and his face shone with bliss .

“David, the head of the research department asked what to do with students who received grants from our educational program . They should arrive in America in a couple of days . He doesn’t know that Elena isn’t here right now, and I don’t know what to tell him . “

“What kind of program is that?” Nick asked the men .

“This is one of Elena’s projects . Gifted students from different countries, dreaming of becoming doctors, practice twice a year in our laboratories and receive knowledge from leading specialists,” David said . He tried to keep himself in control, as the attempts to find Elena and Marcus were unsuccessful, and decided to focus on affairs that were within his power .

This information seemed familiar to Nick, as if he had heard about it somewhere . “Um, do you have a list of these students who received study grants?”

Daniel fiddled in his phone and handed it to Nick, “Here . What for?”

“I want to check something,” the young man began to examine a long list of first and last names, broken down by age and country . The guy’s breath stopped when he found what he was looking for . He clicked on the name of the girl and opened a page with her personal profile and photo .

“Oh God, it’s her,” Nick whispered . A girl of sixteen was looking at him from the photograph with a smile .

David and Daniel immediately bent over the phone in the guy’s hands, “Do you know her?” David asked his son .

“Yes, this is Manisha . My doctor . More precisely, my future doctor . She said that she studied in America under some kind of program, but I did not even imagine that it was a grant from Elena . That’s just . . . ,” Nick’s face became sad, “After the outbreak, she stayed here forever and was no longer able to meet her family . “

David and Daniel looked at each other, they immediately understood each other’s thoughts .

“Tell the program curator to contact all the scholars . As for those, who have already arrived, let them be sent home at the expense of the company . Whoever has not arrived, let them reimburse the costs and buy business class tickets with a delay of two weeks . If all goes well, we will call them again at our expense . If . . . In general, otherwise, they will remain with their families,” David ordered .

“Yes, Boss,” Daniel saluted and returned to his chocolate, which filled the whole kitchen with a sweet aroma .

Nick looked at the men in bewilderment, they decided everything so quickly that he did not have time to figure it out .

David noticed the guy’s confusion and smiled, “Aren’t you back to change the future? If something happens, your doctor will be next to her family, and not alone in a foreign country . Well done! The first victory is in our hands . The future will not be the same as you saw it . So keep your chin up, Sean Nicholas Anderson . “

The realization of this small change gradually began to reach Nick . He did not even imagine that like this, in a couple of minutes, he could change the future of one of the people that were dear to him . So he was not quite hopeless . The hope that he would succeed warmed his heart again .

“What if we turn our attention not to Marcus, but to his assistant?” this idea suddenly occurred to the guy, “After the outbreak, Marcus did not show up at all . All business was carried out by his assistant, Simon . If we can track him, we can find Marcus . “

David thought about it, the idea was quite reasonable, but they did not know anything about this man except his name . “And how do we track down the one we don’t know?”

“By his official name,” Nick knew the name well, as it sounded from all sides like a mantra . But when he called Simon’s full name, David’s face changed in color .

The man took his phone out of his pocket, looked something up and handed it to Nick . The guy saw a photograph of a man, but looking closer, he recognized him . “Yes, this is Simon . Only I always saw him bald and older than here . I would have never thought that he could have such a hairstyle . Do you know him?!” it dawned on Nick .

David smirked, this discovery was no less a shock for him than the fact that Nick was his son .

Marcus knew how to surprise . The man still could not believe that the threads of his opponent tied him, as in a web, from the very beginning .

From the very beginning, even before meeting with Elena, Marcus has ruled him .

Daniel picked up his brother’s phone and flipped through the open file . The name of this Simon also seemed familiar to him . And as soon as he saw his photograph and personal details, the man understood David’s reaction .

“Holy shit,” Daniel cursed and threw the phone down on the table .
