My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 315

Nodding, Irvin quirked his eyebrows and curled his lips into a smile, "Dictatorial?" With only a word, he showed his untamed character. "I know, everyone here has such a high standard but little talents. And you think only the person you recommended can carry such a huge responsibility. It's fine by me. If you can recommend someone more talented than Arianna to fill in the job as the project director, please do so at any time. We will evaluate the person based on how much we've achieved in the Al industry within a year, domestically speaking."

Someone then asked, "In this case, we're not going to discuss the cancellation of Al development for our company for the time being?"

Irvin nodded. "Yes, in a year, if everyone decides that Arianna is incapable, you can recommend other people. However, I expect to achieve certain results for the Al project a year from now. Otherwise, there's no need to waste your breath."

"Sure!" Nerissa spoke. She looked like a strong and independent woman, no longer had the soft temperament she had had when she was in the Granger Manor. "After all, we have already invested hundreds of millions of dollars in this Al project, and it has been going on for a long time. If Miss Reid could show us a good result a year later, it would be great. If she couldn't, it won't be too late for us to consider the cancellation of the Al project again."

Nerissa's words evoked reactions from the people in the meeting room. They exchanged looks and opinions with each other, and a moment later, someone said, "Since Madam Roberts said so, let's give it a try. If the result is satisfactory, everyone will be happy. But if it's not, we'll have wasted another half of the Granger Group's assets. Miss Reid, we'll need a warrant from you."

I stood up and spoke for the first time in the meeting, "If I can't make any progress, I'll take full responsibility for the losses of Granger Group's investments in the Al project for the whole year."

Someone scoffed, "Miss Reid, are you aware that you sounded like a princess leaving her palace for the first time? The Granger Group invests over a hundred million in Al projects annually. It's easy for you to make promises now, but we'll have to bear the loss when you say ciao and leave without debt."
