“High risk, but also high reward. When Calvin was able to grow Everest into a powerful enterprise, wasn’t it done this way? If he can do it, of course, I can too!”

This has always been the way business is done throughout history.

The brave prosper, and the timid starve, an eternal truth.

so, Regina was persuaded.

riday was the annual financial summit of Washington, a major event in the financial world.

liza had received the invitation early on and had specially asked Sadie to clear her schedule for the day.

I was also their first meeting in a month.

n fact, Hector had often wanted to find a chance to see Eliza.

ut they were both too busy.

his past month, Hector had been traveling across the country, learning to develop Washington’s economy.

a the meantime, he also had to manage the summit, which left him stretched thin.

liza’s situation wasn’t much better.

he had been pushing forward several key projects, conducting inspections on new ones, and spending about a third of her time on business trips.

heir opportunities to meet were already scarce, and with them not being in the same circle, they had even fewer chances to cross paths.

ut Hector still kept an eye on Eliza.

Whenever they met, he asked about Mythos Reborn.

Last week I went to North City for a meeting, and they specifically mentioned how Mythos Reborn has made a great contribution to the preservation of omestic culture!”

I watched the trailer, it has already surpassed 200 million views, an impressive result!”

loth Mythos Reborn and ASKHEART were Fliza’s prides.

Thank you for the encouragement, Director Blaine, We’ll keep up the good work!”

lector wanted to continue talking with Eliza, but someone came to find him, so he quickly euled their conversation

Eliza then entered the summit venue.

Her seat had been arranged by the organizers, placed in the very center of the first row.

Undoubtedly, the VIP spot.

But what displeased her was that Calvin’s seat was right next to hers.

In this situation, even if she wasn’t happy, she didn’t show it.

So, Eliza graciously walked over and sat down.

Chapter 305

Medea arrived before Calvin. She ran into Xander at the entrance.

She opened her mouth to call him.

But Xander walked right past her without even giving her a second glance.

Medea’s smile faded, and her eyes grew colder.

“Miss Wynn.”

The appearance of Nicolas lifted Medea’s mood a little.

“Mr. Nicolas, are you here for the summit?”

Nicolas replied. 7 happened to be in Washington, so I decided to stop by. Didn’t expect to run into Miss Wynn.”

“Seems like fate.”

Nicolas smiled slightly.

It was quite ambiguous.

Medea knew exactly how to handle a man like this. She flicked her long hair and asked Nicolas, “I’ve met the conditions you set, when will the investment

funds be transferred?”

Miss Wynn is very efficient,” Nicolas said, his eyes showing unabashed admiration.

n just two days, Medea had completed the investment conditions set by Nicolas and raised 1.5 billion from other sources.

is promised, Nicolas would invest five times that amount before Bosi Technology went public.

A total of 7.5 billion!

t was enough to resolve the problems she was currently facing.

I’ll take it as praise from Mr. Nicolas.”

hey chatted for a while, and Nicolas glanced at the time, reminding her that it was time to head into the venue.

fedea said she needed to wait for someone.

icolas nodded, “Then I head in first.”

Alright.”

is he left, Calvin arrived right behind him.

ime was tight, so neither of them had time to speak as they walked inside.

Medea habitually followed Calvin’s steps and, after entering, went straight to the front row

But when she got to the seat, she found it had Calvin’s name, not hers.

What made her even angrier was that Eliza’s seat was right next to Calvint

Seeing Eliza, Medea’s eyes grew colder.

Calvin, however, didn’t notice the subtle change in her. After scanning the room, he realized her seat had been arranged in the second to last row

111 have a word with the organizers to move your seat forward,” Calvin said to Medea.

Medea quickly stopped him, “No need to trouble yourself. I’m fine sitting at the back. You don’t have to worry about me.”

Chapter 305

‘Are you sure?” Calvin still looked concerned.

Medea smiled calmly. “I’m not a child.”

Alright, sit down then, I’ll return to my seat.”

Medea acted understanding and considerate, exuding the charm of a capable wife.

he coldly glanced at Eliza before walking toward her assigned seat.

liza, wearing her headphones, was listening to a work report and had no idea that the two of them had just had another entangled conversation.

was probably better that way, as hearing it would’ve been rather awkward.

fter Medea sat down, she kept her gaze locked on Eliza’s side, worried that Eliza might be getting closer to Calvin.

he watched for a while but noticed that Eliza didn’t even look at Calvin, and in her heart, she mocked her for pretending.

ander’s seat was in the second row, slightly behind Eliza.

e could see her clearly from his position, and he thought the seating arrangement was quite ideal.

icolas was also in the first row, but on the opposite side.

uring the event, Medea noticed that Nicolas was looking at her with a faint smile on his face.

le straightened up, lightly tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, blatantly displaying her allure.

ot long after, Hector mentioned Apex several times in his speech, giving Apex a lot of attention during the summit.

ven those sitting next to Medea started to discuss it, their tone full of envy.

his CEO Grant is really sharp! Every project she invests in succeeds! ASKHEART is already valued over a billion, and her new game Mythos Reborn has caused storm in the industry, even worldwide, just from the trailer. It’s hard to imagine how popular the game will be once it’s officially launched!”

ius, she’s young and beautiful, doesn’t that make you jealous?”

‘xactly.”

gh, stop talking, my gut is full of regret! When CEO Grant was looking for investors for ASKHEART, no one wanted to invest, including me! If I had known SKHEART would be this successful, I would’ve sold everything to invest in it!”

You just didn’t have that kind of Juck!”

hat was the most frustrating part!

istening to these discussions, Medea’s fare darkened, becoming colder and colder.

When she looked at Fliza again, she suddenly had the sense that she would never catch up to her in this lifetime
