I continued in the same calm voice, "Mr. Stretton, then I won't get in the way of your company's progress anymore. Your AI is doing great. It can improve efficiency by 30%, right? Let it fix everything. I'm old now. I don't have the energy I used to. My reflexes aren't as fast as they once were. Even if I came back, I wouldn't be able to help."
At that moment, Mary came onto the call, crying. "Ms. Lyttle, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have searched your belongings, and I shouldn't have broken your keyboard. Please come back. The system is falling apart, but the AI keeps saying everything is normal!"
