Derek didn't feel bummed out. He was willing to give her more time.
After they ordered, they chatted casually for a bit. Then Violette picked up her phone, busying herself
with something.
"Violette, do you have any concerns about our collaboration?" Derek asked casually while sipping his
wine.
Violette was browsing the news when she heard him. She looked up at him and said, "No problem with
your proposal. It's just that there are some different opinions within our company."
Derek laughed, "What kind of different opinions? Maybe I can help."
Violette: "No need, I can handle it."
In reality, the problem came from her.
The management of the Dennis Group really wanted to accept SwiftStream Capital's investment. But
she was still hesitating.
She agreed to meet with Derek these past few days, hoping to get a better understanding of him
through interaction.
No matter how well Derek behaved, he was still Melinda's brother after all.
It was difficult for Violette to completely set aside her prejudice against him. While she desired to
benefit from the situation, she also carefully contemplated the potential consequences of failure.
Only when she thought she could accept the worst outcome would she agree.
In no time, it was already 2 pm.
Derek and Violette entered the exhibition hall and sat in the front row. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Soon, the host came on stage, welcoming everyone.
"Today, we have a mysterious guest at our event. This mysterious guest has made a request to our
robot, Nexa." As the host spoke, robot Nexa appeared.
Robot Nexa was made very lifelike.
She had a female appearance, with long brown hair, and wore a blue and white uniform.
The host's voice continued, "Let's see if Nexa can fulfill the mysterious guest's request!"
Applause erupted from the audience.
Nexa scanned the crowd, then stepped down from the stage.
Everyone's eyes were on Nexa.
At the same time, everyone was guessing who the mysterious guest was and what their request was.
Soon, Nexa walked towards the front row.
Violette watched Nexa approach, feeling very curious.
She hadn't expected that robot could be made so realistic, even able to walk like humans. It was truly
amazing!
Just as she marveled at the power of modern technology, Nexa stopped in front of her.
She thought Nexa malfunctioned, so she reached out and touched her arm.
Nexa extended her hand to her, and a sweet voice sounded, "Pretty girl, would you like to go with me?"
Violette was speechless.
Laughter broke out around her.
Violette, red-faced, asked, "Nexa, where are you taking me?"
Nexa: "A handsome guy wants to ask you out. He's so handsome! Come with me and see!"
Nexa's voice was so sweet, it was hard to refuse.
Violette pointed at Derek and joked, "I already have a handsome guy right beside me."
Nexa glanced at Derek and waved to Violette, "His looks can't compare to that guy. That guy is really
handsome! I want to marry him! If you see him, you'll definitely want to marry him too!"
Nexa's response caused laughter throughout the venue.
Observing the impasse between Violette and Nexa, the host decided to step in, suggesting, "Miss, why
don't you accompany Nexa to take a look? Once the event concludes, we'll present you with a
delightful gift!" Violette found herself torn, caught between conflicting choices.
Ignoring robot Nexa's feelings was one thing, but she couldn't disregard the organizers!
She stood up from her seat and followed Nexa, step by step, towards the backstage.
Upon entering, she unexpectedly saw a familiar face—
