Mr. Hale had reserved a private room.The moment they all settled down, he cut straight to the chase."We need a space satellite by this year. We're short of a chief engineer."He tapped on the table and looked deeply at Amelia. "You're good at satellite orbit determination. Join the team for this. Jasper, you can be the chief engineer. Aim to launch the satellite into orbit by the end of the year."Amelia's heart was beating fast, still trying to grasp what Mr. Hale just said.Mr. Hale was asking her to…"Professor Hale, I…"She gripped the teacup tightly in her hands.Working in the aerospace industry didn't feel pressurizing, but the space industry required precise and accurate calculations and much more effort."What?" Mr. Hale stared at her. "Do you have questions?""I haven't touched space work for a long time. I'm afraid I might be quite rusty.""Since when did you become so lacking in confidence? Jasper will take the lead."Mr. Hale picked up his teacup and took a

They were acting as though Megatech was going to be listed the moment it was launched.Amelia remained silent, trying to block out the noise from the other room and focus on the present instead.Jasper saw her return and asked, "Did you just bump into them again?"Amelia nodded.Worry filled Jasper's eyes as he looked at her.Seeing the look on his face, she said with a forced smile, "I'm fine. They just like to shoot their mouths off."Amelia was getting tired of hearing the same old things."Bumping into them is inevitable since we're all in the same city and working in the same industry. I'm just worried they'll sour your mood," Jasper said.He started the engine of his car. "Mr. Johnson called and asked us to go sign the contract tomorrow. After we strike up the partnership, you might see them even more frequently. Do be mentally prepared for that."Amelia buckled her seatbelt. She looked at Jasper and said calmly, "Are they wolves or tigers? Why should I be mentally pre

"Professor Hale just wants me to work with a peace of mind. He's advanced in years. Am I really going to make him take care of my child? That'll make me the most horrible student in history! I'll just send her to more enrichment classes," Amelia said. "That's not true," Jasper said.He walked toward the driver's seat, opened the car door, and hopped in. "He likes children. His son works for the military and is about the same age as us. The guy's still single, and the professor keeps complaining that he hasn't had the chance to be a grandfather despite being so advanced in years. You're the only one of his students who has a child. He suggested that partially for his own selfish reasons, because he likes Evelyn. Don't let him down and make him sad."Amelia sat in the front passenger seat. "Is that really so?" She pondered for a moment. "Summer break is right around the corner. I'll think about it."School was out during summer break, and work was getting busy for Amelia. She ha

Nova Nine's team had spent countless nights working on the core project proposal. They couldn't possibly let someone else use this collaboration to take the credit.Yet, Megatech was blatantly trying to snatch their credit!For the sake of making Nicole happy and paving the way for her, Christopher was going all out to snatch everything, even at the expense of his own interests.Nicole furrowed her brows, and so did Luke.What right did Amelia have to demand that? Especially when Jasper hadn't uttered a single word.Mr. Johnson noticed the nuances between them."No matter who the project lead is, everyone is a partner in this project. Credit goes to everyone once the project is realized. Infotech is the largest investor in this project, and they have the right to decide," Mr. Johnson said.He looked pointedly at Christopher, who was seated at the table. "Perhaps you might want to ask Mr. Zephyr for his opinion?"He was right.Nova Nine didn't have the capital to be the major

Nova Nine's projects were still under wraps. Someone in the industry heard from the grapevine that their projected profits stood at 2.5 billion, but they had no idea how much the expected profits were after the project was realized.Jasper fell silent, while Amelia took a deep breath. Christopher could afford to take a gamble. He planned his strategy carefully and had calm control over everyone's destiny.He was so powerful, he had what it took to control the entire situation. He was standing up for Nicole while slapping Amelia in the face.With the project signed, Megatech was bound to be the lead of the project.However, Nova Nine had to pay a huge price if it wanted to snatch the role from Megatech. There was no free lunch in this world, after all."Let me discuss it with Mr. Langley," Amelia said darkly.This was a major decision, and the company wasn't hers. She couldn't unilaterally decide by herself.Christopher raised a hand and signaled for them to go ahead, his fac
