“This is worth billions! Sophia, you’re like a genius. Has Richard Collins completely lost his mind to let you go?”
I pushed him away. “Nine million. As promised.”
“Easy.”
Within a minute, my account pinged with a $10 million deposit.
I transferred $9 million straight into Richard’s personal account.
From that moment, we were square.
“This is my highest courtesy to you. See? I’m far more generous than Richard will ever be.”
“Next month at the tech product launch conference, I guarantee this product will become the industry’s ultimate breakout.”
My eyes shone with confidence.
Richard, just wait and see how I defeat you.
The day of the conference arrived. As soon as I entered the exhibition hall, I ran into Richard and Emily Parker.
I hadn’t planned to acknowledge them, but Richard approached first.
“Sophia, so you’ve left me only to join my defeated rival? Impressive.”
“We’ll see who the real loser is once the product competition begins.”
“Richard, try not to take the loss too hard.”
Emily added smugly, “My cousin brought back a unique new design from overseas. Sophia, this time you don’t stand a chance.”
Little did they know, they were about to become the laughingstock of the entire hall.
