Chapter 58

"Is this Miss Violette?" The voice was deep and polite.

Violette responded, "Yes, and you are?"

"Hi, this is Derek Marcia from SwiftStream Capital. I got your contact from your HR department

because I'm interested in collaborating with you guys," Derek said.

Violette asked, "SwiftStream Capital?"

Derek replied, "Yes, I was wondering if you are available to meet today? I'm actually near your office

right now." His tone was sincere.

After a brief thought, Violette agreed to his request.

Having set the meeting place, Violette called the company's HR manager.

She asked, "Do you know this Derek from SwiftStream Capital?"

The HR manager replied, "He's a hell of an investor. SwiftStream Capital ranks in the top ten in the

domestic investment banking industry. So, when he asked for your contact, I gave it to him straight

away."

Violette said, "Okay, got it."

The HR manager asked, "Violette, do you want me to accompany you to meet him? I'm worried you

might be nervous."

Since Reaves left, the company's morale has taken a hit and many employees have opted to quit.

If they couldn't find more investment, the company might not be able to hang on.

Violette replied, "I’ll be fine, it's the weekend, you should take a break."

On her way to the meeting, Violette looked up some information about Derek online.

When she saw Derek's photo, she paused slightly.

She didn't expect him to look so young.

After checking his age, she found out he was indeed quite young.

She wondered why Elijah, who is the same age as Derek, seemed so old to her?

After glancing at Derek's photo again, she understood why.

Derek in the photo was all smiles, whereas Elijah, no matter when she saw him, he always had a poker

face.

Violette arrived at the agreed café.

Upon entering, Derek immediately waved at her.

Violette sat across from him and said, "Hello, Mr. Marcia."

Derek laughed and said, "please, call me Derek." Then he handed her the menu.

Violette slightly embarrassed waved it off, "I don't drink coffee." She paused, making up an excuse,

"I've been having trouble sleeping recently, and my doctor advised me to quit caffeine."

Derek immediately took back the menu, "Sorry, I didn't know. Let's go somewhere else."

Violette shyly said, "No, it's fine, I'll just have some water. Mr. Marcia, you mentioned the intention to

collaborate, could you elaborate on why you want to work with us?"

Derek ordered a coffee and a pastry, then handed the menu to the waiter.

"I want to collaborate because I see potential in the Dennis Group."

Violette looked at him and asked, "You see potential in our autonomous driving system?"

Derek's expression was complex, after a moment of contemplation he said, "Your father wanted to

apply the system to family cars, but I think we could look at it from another angle. We could consider

applying it to exploration, rescue or even military... What do you think?" Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Upon hearing this, Violette's mind suddenly broadened.

"In the family car sector, this advancement might be too radical. If there was an accident, even a small

number of casualties would rapidly tarnish the company's reputation," Derek said.

Violette nodded, "Mr. Marcia, I think your view is practical. I wanted to ask, in what way do you want to

collaborate?"

Derek pushed up his glasses, smiling, "I understand that someone is willing to buy the Dennis Group."

"Yes, he wants to buy us out."
