BOOKSDRAMA Chapter 648
Her cheeks flushed a rosy hue, as if she’d been kissed by the morning sun.
The deputy chief cautioned the reporter, “Please refrain from prying into our President Dennis’ personal affairs.”
Reporter said, “I simply wish to know if this win-win plan has anything to do with him. It’s a quite a remarkable strategy.”
The deputy chief asked, “Are you insinuating that our President Dennis is incapable of devising such a plan?”
Reporter replied, “Of course not. However, a colleague of mine spotted Elijah entering the Dennis Group late at night just a week ago. Was he there
to assist with some business matters?”
Upon hearing Elijah’s name, Violette’s cheeks turned an even darker shade of red.
The room was filled with curious onlookers, and all eyes were on her, waiting for her response.
“The win-win plan is a result of discussions between my technical director and me. As for anything else, I have no comment,”she finally said, after a
The reporter had no choice but to change the subject, “Ms. Dennis, Ms. Alexa from Golden Palm Tech announced they’ve made a significant
breakthrough in their R&D, predicting the launch of a new high-end product by year-end. What’s your take on this?”
Violette replied, “All I can say about this matter is that the core technology within the stolen chip from my company has been patented exclusively. If
anyone uses this patent without my consent, I will pursue it to the fullest extent!”
Her firm stance at the press conference quickly reached Alexa. Alexa scoffed, “We’ll just upgrade and modify the chip’s content. What’s the big deal?
Ha!”
“But this win-win plan she’s devised is a major disadvantage for us,” the assistant worriedly added. “It’s as if she’s managed to get everyone else in
the industry on her side.”
“What’s there to fear? I’ll destroy them all at once!” Alexa boasted, “To succeed, you must eliminate any opposition!”
“Boss, with Melinda backing you secretly, you’re sure to succeed!”
Alexa glared at him. “Don’t go around spreading that! Melinda is extremely cautious. If she finds out her involvement has leaked, she’ll definitely turn
against me.”
After the press conference, Violette left the hotel and got into her car. Soon after the driver pulled out, she opened her phone to see a message from
Mike.
Mike, who had been working overtime with the R&D department on product upgrades, shared a video someone took at the press conference. He sent
a message to Violette: [Joey told me about the win-win plan. I asked Joey, and he said the plan was actually Elijah’s idea.]
Mike added, [Let’s take him out for dinner! What do you think?]
Violette felt a bit overwhelmed. In her company’s recent crisis, Elijah had taken on all the pressure and solved the most difficult problem.
Though she could have handled it herself, she was still grateful for his help.
Just as she was about to reply “okay”, another message from Mike appeared: [Joey told me they’re really busy with a new project. Elijah has a lot of
work piled up. Let’s invite him to dinner some other time!]
Violette replied: [Alright.]
The backlog of his work was because of her. He went to B Country to apologize and lost sleep over her company’s issues. Even if she had a heart of
stone, it was touched now.
That evening, as she lay in bed, she video-called Odette.
“Violette, even though he’s been great this time, don’t you think it’s despicable that he has Nora at the company?” Odette voiced her opinion, “Unless
he fires Nora, I can accept you getting back together with him. Otherwise, she’s a thorn that could hurt you at any moment!”
