Chapter 400
Flora got the message and just raised an eyebrow, responding with a casual "Hmm."
A minute later, Aisha initiated a video call.
Flora hit the accept button.
Aisha seemed to be at her office, skyscrapers looming in the background. Her eyes were a bit misty as she looked at Flora through the screen and said, "Flora, thank you!"
Three hours earlier.
Gale Corporation.
Aisha arrived at the meeting room early, with some time to spare before the shareholders' meeting was set to start, so only a few shareholders were there.
When they saw her, the shareholders greeted her, though not too warmly.
Aisha kept a polite smile, replying to each one.
"Mr. Gregory, you're here!"
The shareholders who had been pretty indifferent to Aisha quickly warmed up when they saw the middle-aged man walk in.
Their treatment of Aisha and Gregory was like night and day.
The middle-aged man was Aisha's uncle Gregory, who had been running Gale Corporation since Aisha's father passed away.
Most of the shareholders followed Gregory's lead, except for a few who stayed neutral.
Gregory walked up to Aisha, noticing her slightly red eyes, and asked with concern, "Aisha, your eyes are so red. Haven't you been resting well?" "Thanks for your concern, Uncle," Aisha replied nonchalantly.
Gregory smiled warmly, "Haha, how's that little project on the simulation robot going? If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."
At 8:30, the shareholders' meeting officially started, and all the shareholders filed in.
The meeting's goal was to decide between Aisha and Gregory's proposals for the simulation robot project, with the shareholders deciding whose plan was better.
The shareholders knew Aisha was a rookie compared to Gregory, who had decades of experience in the business world.
Still, since Aisha was the sole heir of Gale Corporation's founder, they decided to give her a shot.
Gregory was the first to present his proposal.
His years of experience showed, pinpointing issues accurately and presenting a well-thought-out app.
The shareholders nodded in agreement throughout his presentation.
Aisha's hands tightened under the table.
Gregory's proposal was top-notch, and she felt she couldn't measure up...
Was she really ready to give up...
This was the best opportunity she had fought for.
If she failed now, securing a high position within Gale Corporation would become tough.
"Aisha, it's your turn."Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Gregory walked over, tapping on the table and smirking confidently.
Like her late father, she was talented but too inexperienced after only a few months at the company.
Thinking she could surpass him was a pipe dream.
He needed to push Aisha out of Gale Corporation soon. Once she grew into her potential, dealing with her would become difficult.
Aisha stood up with her laptop.
Even if she was doomed to lose, she couldn't lack the courage to present.
She connected her laptop to the big screen, ignoring the mocking glances from some shareholders below: "Here's my proposal and the specific app I've developed..." She showcased the app first.
Without looking at the screen, she was well-versed in her creation.
She explained her programming logic and the forward-thinking aspects of the simulation robot.
But before she could say much, gasps and exclamations erupted from the audience.
The shareholders looked at the screen behind her as if they had seen a ghost.
