All of a sudden, Bria noticed an additional photo sitting on the cabinet.
It was a family photo.
There were the two children, Floyd and Esme, Ayla, an elderly woman Bria recognized as Ayla's grandmother, and Aunt Juliet, whom she had met before at the twins' one-month celebration... and then there was Kaleb, who made her grit her teeth in frustration whenever she thought of him.
This was a full family photo.
Even though Bria knew that Kaleb was Ayla's younger brother, she was still jealous that he got to stand with her in a family photo.
Bria treated her idol well, but her idol's brother was a whole other story.
Bria was determined to make Kaleb surrender to her.
Regardless, Bria knew that it was only a matter of time before she could take a family photo with Ayla like this. Once Ayla and Draven got married, they would be a family as well.
Bria just needed a little more courage before asking for a photo together. When the time came, she planned to have a custom diamond frame made and place it right next to this family photo.
...
A month later, at the major tech conference that brought together companies and industry leaders from around the world, Ayla stood under the spotlight and confidently introduced LugiM.
Unlike LugiX's large language model, the upgraded AI model featured advanced video generation technology and was able to create imaginative and stunning videos with lower costs and faster prompts.
The demonstration was stunning. Everyone's cheers and even the cameras were all directed at the woman standing in the middle of the stage.
This moment was bound to be included as a highlight in the history of major global AI events.
The AI industry would be shaken up by the release of LugiM.
Standing among the crowd was Skyla, who was blown away by every single stunning feature of Ayla's AI model. As someone who was working in the same industry, Skyla knew how impressive this was. On top of that, she hadn't even had time to process the fact that LugiX was a model created by Ayla.
Indeed, when a genius steps in, it changes the whole game.
Skyla was completely crushed by the competition. Looking at the dazzling Ayla, she even felt tears welling up. There was no way she could hold on to her pride in front of a genius like Ayla.
Meanwhile, at the very back of the crowd, a pair of gentle eyes were fixed on Ayla with full attention. His eyes were full of admiration and pride.
As Ayla finished introducing the last feature of LugiM, loud applause erupted. Ayla looked up, locking eyes with the man standing in the very last row, silently celebrating and marking this moment together with him.
Draven mouthed, "Congratulations, 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....
