Monica thought it over. This was indeed the best solution.
Caroline Monet was incredible, but she had been out of the industry for three years.
If they really went head-to-head, Isabella might actually have a shot at winning.
This was the perfect chance to see who was superior—Isabella or the current version of Caroline Monet—and decide who the Institute would focus on cultivating in the future.
"That's a reasonable proposal. Chloe, what do you think?"
"I have no objections," Chloe replied.
Isabella said coldly, "If you lose, you can explain it to Dr. Sharpe yourself."
"What's the subject?" Chloe asked.
"Simultaneous interpretation in the tech sector," Isabella declared. "The materials will be randomized. I'll give you some time to prepare, and we'll start tomorrow."
Chloe looked up. "Want to pick a different subject?"
"Are you scared?" Isabella stared at her with undisguised contempt.
Chloe smiled faintly. "Suit yourself."
She was just wondering if choosing the tech sector would be considered cheating.
After all, she had been right there with Preston every step of the way when Vantage Tech was founded.
And Vantage's most brilliant core code—the one they still relied on today—was entirely based on her original concepts.
The dramatic confrontation ended just like that.
The various offices of the Sterling Interpretation Institute were buzzing all day long.
Everyone was betting on who would win.
To them, the answer was obvious.
"Ms. Sylvain, obviously! Don't you guys know how good she is?"
"She really is incredible. Unless Caroline Monet comes back, no one in the Institute can beat her."
Suddenly, someone brought up a critical point.
"Is it confirmed that Mr. Shaw is attending?"
"Yeah."
"Doesn't that mean whoever wins gets to partner with Mr. Shaw?"
The realization hit the crowd, and they quickly started talking over one another.
"But Mr. Shaw hasn't partnered with anyone except Caroline Monet for years..."
