Chapter 1079:
“Second, the role Charles is playing in this investment was originally meant to be mine. I personally suggested that Elliott Group should invest in this opportunity. However, Millie correctly anticipated that there would be resistance and opposition from people in this room, so she declined my offer and approached Charles with the proposal instead. She was protecting this company from internal politics.
“Third, and perhaps most important, Millie doesn’t need me to clean up any messes for her. Every single one of you has drastically underestimated her intelligence and capabilities.
“And lastly, I’ve already made my relationship with Millie perfectly clear to all of you. I don’t want to hear these kinds of disrespectful comments about her brought up in professional meetings ever again. Is that understood p>
Myron didn’t bother waiting for a response. He rose from his chair in one smooth motion.
“This meeting is adjourned p>
He walked out with his secretary following closely behind, leaving the conference room in stunned silence.
For several long moments, nobody moved or spoke. Then finally, someone let out a long breath of relief.
“Well, thank God Elliott Group wasn’t directly involved in this investment. At least we won’t be facing financial losses when it all falls apart p>
“Absolutely. We really dodged a bullet on this one p>
“What do you think? Is there any chance Millie will actually pull this off successfully p>
The question was met with derisive laughter.
“Succeed? Have you actually looked at the mess she’s created? It’s a complete disaster p>

Heads bobbed around the table in amused agreement, everyone sharing the same confident certainty that Millie’s venture was doomed.
Meanwhile, Myron made his way back to his office, shaking his head slightly at the stubborn attitudes of these old-guard executives. They were so set in their ways, so quick to judge without having all the facts.
What none of them knew was that Myron had spent the entire previous night at Millie’s office, going over every single detail of the Yaroslav Technology project with her. He had seen her research, her planning, her careful strategy.
Millie had drawn on years of hard-earned business experience for this investment, particularly tapping into her extensive international connections to gain a complete understanding of Yaroslav Technology’s real situation. She hadn’t just thrown money at a company blindly.
She had even tracked down the key engineer who had allegedly left the company, learning the deeply personal reason behind his departure. Then she had spent hours negotiating with him, ultimately convincing him to stay.
The technology that Yaroslav already possessed was genuinely impressive, far more advanced than most people realized. And according to the engineer, they were standing right on the edge of a major breakthrough that would revolutionize their entire sector.
Myron rubbed his temples.
Right now, that engineer and his mother were on their way to Flaville because she was critically ill and needed emergency surgery. Once the operation was successfully completed and her recovery began, the engineer had promised to return immediately and lead his team through the final stages of their technological breakthrough. When that happened, the project’s valuation would soar, silencing every critic who had doubted Millie’s judgment.
