Chapter 1130:
Then, out of nowhere, Yaroslav Technology sprang into action. That morning, Foley took to his social media and made an announcement:
“Don’t miss our noon live stream! Yaroslav Technology has some big news to share. Mark your calendars p>
The internet buzzed with rumors and wild guesses about what was coming.
But over at JM Investments, Millie already had the inside scoop. Thanks to her position as a shareholder, and her efforts to help Spencer, she was always up to speed on Yaroslav Technology’s latest developments.
Stepping into her office, Millie took a moment to observe her team, everyone focused and busy at their desks.
Taylor made her way over with purpose.
“Good morning, Millie,” Taylor greeted.
Returning the gesture, Millie glanced her way. “Did you handle all the preparations I requested p>
Taylor’s response was immediate. “Yes, everything’s in order p>
“Perfect,” Millie said, offering a brief nod of approval.
Elsewhere, Babette was back in the Watson Group offices, resuming her duties.
Despite her return, she felt completely swamped.
Attempts to liquidate assets abroad had hit roadblocks, and her phone was constantly ringing with bargain hunters trying to force her hand with outrageously low offers. Every negotiation seemed endless, and her patience wore thinner each time.
On her first day back, Babette’s secretary had handed her a stack of loss statements.
At first, she’d brushed the numbers aside, but a second glance left her fuming.

Her own stubborn choices and slow decisions had led to setbacks, and her gamble to push down copper prices had only deepened the losses. Had Brandon not stepped in when he did, the financial damage would have spiraled out of control.
Yet Babette refused to acknowledge her mistakes.
Lately, quiet gossip about her performance had spread throughout the office.
During a recent walk through the department, stray bits of conversation about her reached Babette’s ears.
“Miss Watson is just too impulsive. That last call she made really cost the company p>
“Luckily, Mr. Watson stepped in and put a stop to the mess before things got any worse p>
“Isn’t she supposed to have successfully handled plenty of major projects before? Didn’t she study at a top university abroad? How does someone with that background make such blunders p>
“Beats me. I just can’t figure it out p>
Babette’s irritation grew with every word she overheard. As a result, she began redirecting all her frustrations toward Millie.
Lately, she’d been quietly putting the squeeze on Yaroslav Technology.
Since acting openly was too risky, she chose to pull strings from behind the scenes.
Word started to spread that some employees were eyeing positions at Watson Group, while a few insiders had begun leaking information to her. Even regulatory officials seemed to be turning up the pressure on Yaroslav Technology.
In Babette’s mind, if things kept going this way, it was only a matter of time before Yaroslav Technology buckled under the strain.
Babette intended to leverage every ounce of the Watson family’s sway to her advantage.
By midday, Yaroslav Technology had kicked off another live broadcast. This time, Foley and Spencer showed up on screen, both of them grinning confidently.
“We couldn’t be more excited to share some fantastic news,” Foley announced with a broad grin. “Our research team has just hit a major milestone—we’ve made a genuine breakthrough in technology p>
