Chapter 45 Running Into Rolf
Skyla said, “Got it. I care about results. I will handle it as fast as possible. I’ll do my best to
convince the boss.”
Norris, as the head of the lab, felt very satisfied with Skyla’s attitude.
He also understood why Troy appreciated her, because she really was an exceptional woman.
After they talked a bit more about the project details, Skyla went back to her desk.
All of her things had already been moved into the former team lead’s office.
High intelligence did not mean low emotional awareness. Any team had a few people who knew how to read the room.
“Jessica Chenuck?” Skyla sat down in the chair Jessica had dusted off and looked up at her.
“Hello, Ms. Summer. I’m Jessica, the former leads assistant.” Her attitude was very good.
Skyla liked obedient people. She smiled. “A lot of people out there still aren’t convinced by me. Yet you’re already showing loyalty. Aren’t you worried the others will freeze you out?”
Jessica said plainly, “I admire strength. You solved issues the former lead could not solve. So I respect you.”
Skyla was pleased. “Alright, go do your work. I will call you if I need you.”
After she left, Skyla tapped her fingers on the desk, then made a call.
“Rolf, I already contacted the boss. Maybe we can meet the developer of LugiX tomorrow. Could you come with me?”
Rolf said, “Of course.”
Skyla brought Rolf because he was an extra advantage.
After all, the son of the richest man in the city was a useful connection.
As for Halle, she got lucky three years ago and developed LugiX. Compared to the endless new Al assistants being launched by major tech companies now, Halle’s success came from being ahead of the curve, being the first to reap the benefits.
Other than that, she was average.
In a few years, LugiX would be outdated.

However, the schedule Halle gave her required a week.
The situation was urgent, so Skyla planned to go to ZeitTech tomorrow to meet her directly.
Even though it was a sudden visit, Skyla was sure Halle would be happy to see her.
Troy had been taking her everywhere, and she was no longer the old Skyla.
Not long after Ayla hung up the phone, Halle sent the documents.
Ayla had finished her work early and opened the file.
There were confidentiality measures, so it was impossible for it to be the complete project.
It only contained the problems, but even that took about 30 pages.
Ayla read through them quickly. The description of the issues lacked precision, and the referenced papers had weak relevance. Therefore, she reorganized everything.
She compressed the thirty pages into ten.
Then, she listed several possible solutions, and according to that direction, she downloaded relevant papers from around the world with speed and accuracy.
When she finished most of it, she remembered a book written by Avery.
Because the terminology was too abstract and the reading threshold was extremely high, fewer than a hundred copies were printed, and there were no images or scans online.
Ayla searched. The city library had one copy.
After work and dinner, she went straight there.
She found the book in its section, but as she reached for it, a hand suddenly appeared and took another related book from the shelf. She glanced at the title. It was a beginner-level book.
“Small world.”
Ayla looked
He knew she was looking at him, so he finally raised his eyes. His tone was calm, but there was a faint, hard-to-detect edge. “You’re interested in computer science too?”
He was meeting high-IQ researchers tomorrow, so he wanted to cram.

TINTIES VUITS.
A colleague from R&D made him a reading list. Online delivery would not arrive in time, so he came to borrow the books.
He did not expect to run into Ayla.
A huge surprise.
Like strawberries mixed with fish sauce, strange enough to make anyone queasy.
Ayla frowned. She knew him, but they had not spoken more than five sentences.

The readers' comments on the novel: Divorce me I'm done serving you (Ayla)
Why is half of each of these chapters missing? The story sort of trails off in the middle of the chapter. That’s unfortunate....
