Chapter 896
Chapter 896:
She couldn’t bear this outcome. How was it even possible that she had lost this competition?
She had endured so much suffering and humiliation over the past few days, partly because she’d been counting on winning to achieve her ultimate goals. If she could just secure victory…
Here, she’d be able to work within the agreement’s framework to get everything she truly wanted.
But now all of that hope had been ripped away from her.
Vivian frantically grabbed the stack of documents in front of her, flipping through pages with trembling hands as she spoke in an increasingly agitated voice. “I’m absolutely certain that Millie’s data has to be wrong somehow. There’s no way these numbers can be accurate p>
Millie didn’t even bother to turn her head in Vivian’s direction, maintaining her composure as she responded with icy calm. “Vivian, every piece of data we submitted has been properly documented, recorded, and independently verified by Derek’s team. If you want to challenge these results, you’ll need to provide concrete evidence to support your claims p>
Vivian threw the documents aside in frustration, her face twisted with indignation as she let out a bitter, mocking laugh. “Evidence? What more evidence do you need? It’s completely obvious to anyone with half a brain! My projects barely cost anything to implement, while yours required massive investments and resources. There’s absolutely no logical way I could have lost this competition p>
Barbara had been watching this display with growing disgust and could no longer hold her tongue.
“Did you even bother to read through any of the documentation before making these ridiculous accusations?” Barbara said, her voice shaking with righteous anger. “Everything is clearly spelled out in black and white. You’re deliberately ignoring facts that don’t fit your narrative p>
But Vivian was beyond reason now, completely determined to be as unreasonable and demanding as necessary to get what she wanted.

She was going to win this, no matter what it took!
Vivian opened her mouth to launch into another tirade, but Derek’s authoritative voice cut her off before she could get started.
“That’s enough of this nonsense.” Derek’s glare was sharp enough to cut glass as he focused on Vivian’s flushed face. “The ‘low costs’ you keep claiming are only possible because you refuse to acknowledge that all the resources Brandon provided to you should have been calculated as legitimate business expenses p>
Even faced with Derek’s obvious displeasure, Vivian remained stubbornly defiant. “I demand that you recalculate everything from scratch,” she declared, crossing her arms like a petulant child.
Derek let out a laugh that was completely devoid of humor, shaking his head in disbelief at Vivian’s shameless behavior.
Over the past several days, every single one of Vivian’s questionable actions and decisions had been thoroughly documented and reported to him by his trusted team.
All of the statisticians working on this project were people he had personally selected for their integrity and expertise.
There was absolutely no doubt that Millie’s victory was completely fair and well-deserved.
And yet here was Vivian, still insisting on making unreasonable demands and baseless claims.
