Farewell to Love: The CEO's Desperate Chase novel Chapter 715

*Guess who I just saw at the summit?* an acquaintance texted her.

Chloe sent back a single question mark.

*Emilia,* the reply read. *I didn't expect to see her here. I'd heard rumors she was eyeing the robotics space, but I figured it was just talk. Turns out she actually showed up. No idea who managed to score her an invite.*

A vicious glint flashed through Chloe's eyes.

She shot a quick glance at Tyler, who was sitting at the head of the conference table.

He looked entirely composed, methodically navigating the company's daily operations.

It seemed he had absolutely no idea about this.

Smirking, Chloe typed back: *Keep an eye on her for me. See exactly what she's trying to pull. I'll head over as soon as this meeting wraps up.*

As Miss Erickson, she had the luxury of going wherever she pleased, with people practically rolling out the red carpet for her.

*Will do.*

...

Time slipped by.

"They're up," Ray whispered, leaning close to Emilia.

Emilia nodded, her eyes flicking between the glossy brochure in her hands and the rapid-fire updates flashing across the tablet Ray handed her.

The founder stepped onto the stage, a sleek prototype trailing behind him.

"This is our latest technological milestone. Please, take a look," he announced, practically glowing with pride.

The moment the robot on stage opened its eyes, there was a slight stiffness to its movements, but the horrific uncanny valley effect that had plagued the industry for years was completely gone.

The founder beamed. "We have..."

Beside her, Ray was furiously texting their analysts back at the office.

Aegis Dynamics had successfully kept their breakthrough tightly under wraps, releasing the news just today.

They had managed to fly entirely under the radar until now.

As the presentation continued on stage, the data on Emilia's tablet refreshed at a blistering pace.

Once she finished, she finally let out a breath.

But Tyler didn't look away immediately; his heavy gaze lingered on her.

Her anxiety spiked all over again.

Fortunately, he only stared for another three seconds before ordering the meeting to continue.

The second they adjourned, Chloe grabbed her files and practically sprinted toward the tech summit.

Tyler watched her hurry out, his expression unreadable as he fell into deep thought.

...

Meanwhile, across the city.

"...We have several other proprietary technologies currently in rigorous development. We are extremely confident in these innovations, which is why we've set a strict barrier to entry for this upcoming funding round."

The Aegis Dynamics founder spoke with unshakable confidence.

"First and foremost, there will be a significant financial threshold. We are looking for high-volume capital injection," he stated.
