Reborn Without You (Amelia and Christopher) novel Chapter 190

Chapter 190

Christopher didn’t spare Amelia a glance.

A respectful smile emerged on Adrian’s face the moment he saw Christopher. “Hello, Mr. Zephyr.”

“Let me introduce you to Ms. Nicole Randall, a top student in the aerospace field. She is capable of independent research and takes on the role of chief designer,” Christopher said with a smile.

He was clearly here to stand up for Nicole and snatch partnership opportunities from them.

Infotech was at the pinnacle of the industry. Christopher didn’t even need to look for investors himself as tons of partners would already be knocking on the door, wanting to work with them.

What he was doing was helping Nicole build connections.

Of course, he had to do it right in front of Amelia in a blatant attempt to snatch their chance. He completely disregarded her pride and dignity.

“Hello, Mr. Lane,” Nicole said with a smile as she retracted her gaze from Amelia. “Nova Nine is still a new company and not yet a first-tier one. There are indeed risks working with them. They’ll have to work a little harder and at least ensure that their so-called talents don’t come through the back door for there to be real improvements.”

It was nonsensical that Nova Nine rejected her for Amelia’s sake. In fact, it was a decision made at the expense of the company.

Nicole smirked and looked at Adrian. “I come in representation of ACE Technologies and would like to discuss further with you on the possibility of a collaboration.”

ACE Technologies was a new company in the AI field, and its reputation was growing by the day.

Adrian’s eyes lit up at the sight of Nicole, the hostility in his eyes softening as he stretched a hand out.

“Of course. Feel free to come to me if you have any questions, Ms. Randall. With Mr. Zephyr’s recommendation, I’m sure your competence is not a question at all.”

Adrian then looked coldly at Amelia, adding with a frown, “Ms. Randall is someone I’d prefer working with.”

He had just said that his company didn’t have the capacity to take on new orders, but now he was expressing interest in further discussions with Nicole.

He was making it clear he didn’t want to work with them and was directly rejecting them, not even bothering to put up a front.

Christopher and Nicole came over just to step all over Amelia.

Christopher just wanted to stand up for Nicole in front of her, and Amelia didn’t even have a chance to flare up

at them.

Christopher’s gaze landed imperceptibly on Amelia’s face. There was a subtle nuance in the look in his eyes.

Very soon, both of them left.

Amelia smirked, taking a deep breath as she tightened her grip over the stem of her glass, trying her best to calm herself down.

“What’s the matter?” Jasper walked over to her and noticed the glum look on her face.

Amelia explained to him everything that happened.

Jasper’s eyes turned dim. “He’s really bent on standing up for that homewrecker and slapping you in the face. Adrian isn’t our only choice. They’ll know what’s going on when you finally show them how good you are.”

Amelia put her glass down and said flatly, “We can work with anyone. I wouldn’t bother working with someone like that, anyway.”

“I

Having returned to the industry, she wanted to uphold the right attitude in this regard.

Partnerships weren’t built overnight. What’s more, she was considered a “newcomer” in this field.

She would have to prove her abilities to secure the approval of others.

It was absolutely understandable that she was met with rebuff without any achievements to her name.

As for Adrian’s blatant disdain and bias… It was clearly due to some prejudice he had against her.

“I have a project proposal for a potential collaboration, all drawn up. I wonder if you have time to set an appointment for further discussion after the summit, Mr. Langley, Ms. Sinclair?”

A man’s voice sounded from behind them.

When they turned around to see who it was, shock registered on their faces.
