Chapter 324
What was that name?
….
Why did it look so familiar?
Was that “Divorcee”?
Mary was stunned.
What kind of nonsense was that?!
Who would have such a name?
It couldn’t be right, could it? The writing was so cursive, like some kind of artistic script. It was completely unrecognizable!
Confused, Mary simply scrawled her own name below the messy signature and followed Keira and Lewis inside.
Once the three of them entered, Lewis found a secluded corner to quietly observe the surroundings.
After the incident where Keira was harmed last time, combined with the mysterious kidnapping of Jodie South, he was now very worried about Keira’s safety.
He wished he could attach himself to Keira’s leg—wherever she went, he would follow!
Thus, he was constantly observing the situation around Keira.
Keira and Mary weren’t far apart; both holding champagne, they left the crowd to find a quiet place to stay.
Christina and Victoria entered surrounded by a throng of people, their gazes landing on Mary and Keira.
Christina said resentfully, “Do you see them? Those two, relying on some business collaboration, act like they’re above everyone! And my brother tells me to tolerate it! A small company’s boss should be coming to us, right? Why should I hold back?”
Victoria was younger, but she seemed more composed than Christina. She smiled and said, “I’ve inquired about this project. It turns out Keera Technology has indeed come up with advanced research that no one in the scientific community has surpassed yet, which is why our brother is asking you not to offend them.”
Christina was taken aback. “They’ve got some skills? Then what do I do? Just swallow my pride like that?”
Victoria laughed. “If you don’t want to do that, there’s actually another way.”
“What way?”
Taking a sip of red wine from her glass, Victoria suggested, “Keera Technology is indeed too small to fit a big-time researcher, huh? If we could poach that research bigwig to Olsen Group or to your company, wouldn’t Keera Technology be nothing but an empty shell?”
At that, Christina’s eyes lit up. “Right, why didn’t I think of that? How much salary can Keera Technology offer him? I’ll offer double… no, ten times!”
After saying that, Christina asked, “Do you know how to contact their big-time researcher?”
Victoria laughed. “I do.”
She took out her phone immediately. “I looked at the contract and took photos for you.”
Christina’s excitement grew as she browsed through the photos, spotting the name of the research personnel: N.
That must be a code name, right?
But there was also his email and phone number.
Christina entered the phone number into her phone, thought for a moment, and sent a message. “Hello, I am from Olsen Group. Tonight is the signing banquet of Keera Technology, Olsen Group, and Davis Corporation. Are you here?”
On the couch next to her, Keira’s cell phone vibrated slightly.
She picked it up and saw the message.
Not knowing who it was from, she replied, “Yes.”
The reply was very concise.
Christina saw it, and her eyes immediately sparkled. She continued to send messages. “Are you N, the research personnel from Keera Technology? There’s something I would like to discuss with you in person. May I?”
Keira quickly replied, “Regarding?”
This research bigwig was indeed very aloof.
Christina sent another message, “Do you have any thoughts about job-hopping? Talent like you is really stifled at Keera Technology. Olsen Group welcomes you, and the compensation is negotiable.”
Keira was surprised.
She looked at the message on her phone, slightly startled, and then felt that this probably wasn’t Ellis’s idea.
She lightly raised her brow and replied, “I don’t have that plan.”
Christina, seeing this, became anxious. “Then you can start thinking about it now. Come to Olsen Group. We can provide you with the best stage to showcase your talents. Whatever position you want, you can have. Keera Technology will only limit your development. Do you know? The research findings you produce are worth billions. How much salary can Keera pay you? How many shares? They’re even afraid to let you into the spotlight, and on the contract, they just use an ‘N’ to replace your name. Don’t you want to make a name for yourself in your lifetime?”
Keira was intrigued.
She smiled. “I don’t mind.”
Christina was shocked.
She stared at the message, completely dumbfounded.
Then she suddenly glanced over at Keira in the distance and saw her lazily leaning against the wall, looking at her phone, and that makeup-free face was so dazzling under the light.
What Christina hated was this attitude of hers.
Even though Keira was just a middle-class woman, she dared to show authority in front of Christina, even hitting her…
But Christina had to admit that Keira was indeed very pleasing to look at.
Christina tightened her jaw and continued to send messages. “Are you unwilling to leave because of your boss, Keera?”
There was no reply from the other side.
Christina continued to send messages. “She’s dirty, and she’s even keeping a gigolo. She doesn’t care about you at all! Are you sure you want to continue this one-sided relationship?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, feeling quite impressed by the other party’s imagination, and simply replied, “Yes.”
Christina was speechless.
Was that man so in love with Keera? Has the research bigwig’s brain gone bad?
Christina decided to have a proper chat with the other party and sent another message. “Where are you? Let’s meet on the second-floor balcony and talk.”
Seeing this message, Keira also raised her eyebrows, wanting to know who this shameless person trying to poach from her company was. After all, this was something that had to be settled with Olsen Group since it violated industry rules.
So, she replied to the message. “Alright.”
After sending the message, Keira handed the phone to Mary.
After Mary read the chat history, she was almost furious. “Come on, let’s go and see who has the nerve to be so shameless!”
The two of them made their way to the second-floor balcony.
Just as they got there, a voice suddenly called out from behind them. “I’m using this place, you go somewhere else.”
Keira and Mary slowly turned around, only to see Christina bossily standing there.
Keira frowned.
Mary even chuckled. “This is a public space. What do you mean you’re using it? Besides, we got here first!” Upon hearing this, Christina sneered immediately. “This hotel belongs to Olsen Group. If I say I’m using it, then I am using it! I’ve arranged to meet someone here, so you better leave quickly!”
Upon hearing this, Keira immediately raised her eyebrows. “You’re the one who arranged a meeting with me?”
