The only difference is the direction and purpose of the research.
Some people do it for their career, some for personal gain, some to satisfy their curiosity, and of course, some for their own safety.
After all, monsters capable of destroying civilizations and even humanity suddenly began to appear on the Earth they lived on, and an inner world also appeared. Anyone with a bit of ability would definitely want to find out what was going on!
14. Although Mr. Su did not run any technology companies, he was definitely a wealthy man. Especially since his island was attacked by Godzilla not long ago, it was only natural for him to investigate such news.
"Although I didn't find any useful information this time, I do know some things about Godzilla and the inner world. If you need them, I can send them to you when I get back."
Su was surprised by Maya Simmons's generosity. She smiled and asked, "What do you want?"
Maya Simmons shook her head: "This isn't a deal, I just want to thank you for saving me."
Su shrugged: "Isn't the usual way to express gratitude in this situation to offer yourself in marriage? That's how it's portrayed in movies."
Maya Simmons paused for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "I do!"
"..."
Su was speechless, and asked curiously, "To be honest, I'm very curious why!"
"what why?"
"We didn't know each other before, and I don't think I've ever done anything to attract you, so why are you so infatuated with me?"
Su was genuinely curious. Although there were many fish that liked her, it was rare to see one like her!
There must be a reason for liking or admiring someone, right?
If Maya Simmons weren't a rich second-generation heiress, that would be understandable.
Maya Simmons is top-notch in terms of both her personal qualities and family background. Coupled with the broad perspectives and environment she has been exposed to since childhood, it is indeed hard to understand why she would fall in love with a complete stranger!
Maya Simmons's affection wasn't just empty talk or the kind of admiration or interest he expressed; it was a genuine romantic relationship!
To put it simply, although Maya Simmons had many admirers and suitors, she never chose any of them!
To emphasize, he has never been in a romantic relationship, let alone any other form of relationship!
Maya Simmons is, after all, a rich heiress with high standards. She would definitely not be interested in men who don't meet her standards. Besides, she has been busy with her mission in order to gain her father's approval, so she has no time or interest to think about these things.
But if it's the Su family, she's willing.
Well, this is something Lisa whispered to Sue earlier. As for why Lisa knew such a private matter, it was something Maya Simmons told her after she was upset and had drunk too much at a party.
This question seemed to stump Maya Simmons. She paused for a few seconds before shaking her head and saying, "I don't know either."
Love arises without warning, and deepens with each passing moment!
Mr. Su said "oh" and did not ask any further questions. Although he believed that so-called love at first sight was just lust at first sight, who said that feelings could not develop in such a situation?
Everything has a beginning and an end.
Most love-at-first-sight relationships end with the feeling fading and the relationship ending. But it cannot be denied that there are also the possibility of falling in love again and again, even more deeply, after the first, second, third, and subsequent meetings!
Of course, these things are not important to the Su family!
He might not have made a decision before meeting her, but after meeting Maya Simmons in person, Su clearly had the idea of taking care of her!
Poor Maya Simmons!
Despite being a beautiful and wealthy girl from a good family, she never felt much warmth from her family growing up. Her father was busy with his career and didn't care about her, but she always tried hard to gain his approval!
Who wouldn't want to take care of a girl like that?
Who could stand by and watch her die in the Earth's core in the near future?
The Su family couldn't do it!
Rather than watching her perish outside, it's better to keep her in our own pond, where she can live a carefree and healthy life.
"Do you want to call your father and have him send someone to pick you up?" Madam Su asked.
Maya Simmons shook her head and said ambiguously, "No, it's not necessary. Even if he sends someone, he won't send me away immediately. Instead, he'll let me continue to complete my mission."
“I’d rather stay with you than with the people he sent.”
Su said, "I have no intention of continuing to investigate the monsters and the inner world. Finding a safe, secluded place and quietly waiting for the reckoning day to end is what I need to do next."
“That’s even better, then I can thank you for saving my life.” Maya Simmons winked.
Well, it seems that the life-or-death crisis she just experienced has changed Maya Simmons's attitude towards her father quite a bit. It looks like she no longer wants to be a tool to gain her father's approval.
After thinking for a moment, Su invited, "Would you like to work for me?"
"want!"
"..."
Such a straightforward answer gave Su the feeling that Maya Simmons was making a suggestive joke, but there was no evidence to support it.
“What I mean is, do you want to cooperate with me? If you stay in your father’s company, no matter how well you do, you will never gain his approval, let alone surpass him.”
"Isn't he researching Godzilla? I know more about Godzilla, or rather, Titans, than he does!"
"Isn't he interested in the inner Earth? I know more about it than he does, and... I can even take you there!"
"The only insurmountable gap between you and your father is money!"
"Unfortunately, I am very rich, or rather, I am richer than your father!"
"Would you be willing to help me?"
After a string of words, Su looked intently at Maya Simmons.
Instead of giving a hasty and impulsive answer as before, Maya Simmons began to think calmly.
This prompted Su to nod slightly.
Before watching Maya Simmons's blind attitude towards herself, I thought she was just love-struck, but thankfully, she isn't!

Chapter 558 Cooperation and Fulfilling the Lifesaving Grace
Maya Simmons was surprised and excited by Sue's sudden invitation.
Nothing could prove himself to his father better than surpassing him.
However... having been influenced by her surroundings since childhood, she did not believe in free lunches, nor did she believe in help that came without expecting anything in return.
Equivalent exchange is the truth she believes in.
It's as if she knows that the sycophants or handbag carriers around her actually hate her, but they still greet her with smiles and fawn over her.
why?
It's all because they can benefit from it!
In other words, since they paid the price, they should also receive the 'benefits'.
The benefit, of course, is that they fawn over and flatter them.
An equivalent exchange is fair and reasonable.
Returning to Su's proposal, he wanted to cooperate with me and was willing to pay money. Surely his purpose wasn't to help me surpass my father for no reason?
"I can cooperate with you, but you have to tell me what you want!"
Maya Simmons calmly analyzed, "If you're not lying to me, you know far more about Godzilla and the inner Earth than I do, more than my father does."
"Why would you want to cooperate with me? You're rich, richer than my father, and you have more information. Whether I'm there or not is completely irrelevant to you!"
"You can work with anyone, why me?"
Maya Simmons asked the question very seriously, and Su did not give it a perfunctory answer; he thought about it seriously as well.
“I can tell you clearly that I have no designs on your father’s company or on Godzilla and the inner Earth.”
“I have a lot of money, and for me, spending money is more meaningful than making money.”
Looking at the somewhat surprised Maya Simmons, Su smiled and said, "So you don't need to worry that I'm cooperating with you for your father's company or money."
"You said you admire me and like me. I believe no man would refuse a beauty like you, and I'm no exception!"
"But to be honest, I don't really believe in your so-called liking and admiration. I prefer to take control of everything myself."
"That's why I chose to work with you!"
As she spoke, Su smiled and said, "Of course, I'm not really asking for nothing in return. I'm very interested in the magnetic levitation technology and neuron connection control technology that your father's company is developing."
"You want me to help you get these two technologies?" Maya Simmons asked.
Su chuckled and shook her head: "No, you'll know some things later. All you need to do now is tell me if you're willing to cooperate with me."
"How do you want to cooperate?"
"How about we talk somewhere else?" Su asked with a smile.
Maya Simmons shrugged: "Where to?"
How is Lanai Island?
"Your island? Great, you've arranged for someone to pick you up?" Maya Simmons asked instinctively.
The entire town has been occupied by monsters and is almost completely lost. If we want to leave now, we will definitely need someone from outside to pick us up.
Putting everything else aside, there is no airport nearby, and even if there were, no flight would dare to take off.
The strange birds that blot out the sky are no mere decorations; once they take off and are attacked, death is certain.
The only way to leave here and get to Lanai Island now is to have a private plane with a heavily armed squad to pick you up.
Even so, the risk of successfully leaving here and reaching Lanai Island remains very high!
"unnecessary!"
Suddenly, Sue reached out and pulled Maya Simmons into her arms, then gave a mysterious smile.
"call out--"
