Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 675

To Max's surprise, he received a call from Darwin.

Moreover, Darwin seemed to pretend to be confused as he asked the question.

Max's voice turned cold as he replied, "Darwin, don't you know what's going on?"

With that, he abruptly ended the call.

On the other end, Darwin felt deeply unsettled.

Did Max know something?

Or was this some kind of joke?

He was not the only one who had been to Max's house...

Darwin recalled the countless discussions he had with Max, where they delved into various topics. Frankly speaking, Max was a great friend to him.

When talking to others, either they could not grasp what he was talking about. So, he could not engage in a meaningful conversation with anyone else...

Only Max truly understood him, and he reciprocated that understanding. The bond between them was genuine.

But...

Darwin thought about another aspect.

During numerous moments of recognition, Max stood on stage, offering unique insights into projects and speaking eloquently.

While surrounded by reporters, Max basked in the limelight, while Darwin remained in the shadows.

Especially now, with Max possessing the core data of the laboratory, not to mention being the master of the lithography machine, he could even create a virtual assistant for entertainment.

Darwin laughed bitterly.

He found the situation ridiculous and felt the world was unfair!

He worked so hard, yet Max could effortlessly surpass him.

It's not fair, not fair at all.

Darwin murmured unconsciously, "I'm not asking for much... I'm just a supporting role in the lithography machine project... Then the virtual assistant project should be my development..."

"He should give me something in return... We're good friends after all... I'm not being greedy. I'll never compete with him for control of the lithography machine's core..."

He simply wanted ownership of the virtual assistant project. After all, to Max, the virtual assistant was just a "toy." he invented. Why couldn't he give Darwin the fruits of his research during his free time?

The malignant spirit perched on Darwin's shoulders had already devoured his heart, its mouth wide open.

Chuckling and beguiling, Darwin said, "It's only fair... As a good friend, he should consider his friend's feelings and not be so possessive... If he truly is a good friend, he should willingly hand over the virtual assistant project... That's what a good friend would do..."

…

Max sat on the sofa, growing angrier the more he thought about it.

"These people are so greedy," he exclaimed. "They prioritize their own interests rather than the advancement and progress of human civilization."

If the virtual assistant project fell into the hands of Mr. Martin and the others, only a select few would benefit from this technology while Max would lose out.

They lacked the capacity to continue the research and development, and they certainly did not have enough engineers for subsequent installations. In the end, they would likely sell this project multiple times to foreign research laboratories and ultimately achieve fame abroad.
