One second later, her Whatsapp was flooded with messages.
(Addy, youâre so cruel!
[Addy, this is the 999th time that youâve blocked my phone number. Iâll remember this!
[Addy, Iâm sorry. Give me another chance!] Adina coldly slammed her phone back on the office desk with the screen facing down.
n She then raised her head and smiled. âIâm sorry, Mr. Garcia. We can continue now. Regarding Visual Studio Code that you mentioned earlier, it is a rather traditional coding software. Iâve amended a few partsââ
âMs. Daugherty, I think I better take this preliminary design concept back to Winters Corporation to study it.â Mr. Garcia stood up. âA-F is a project that Winters Corporation has invested a lot into. Some details canât be decided by the two of us.â
Adina smiled and nodded. âYouâre right, Mr. Garcia. Weâll discuss it again after the Technical Department of Winters Corporation audits and reviews it.â
Mr. Garcia held the thick document with the design while he walked out of the studio. As soon as he got into his car, he casually threw the document on the passenger seat. When he casually flipped through the document earlier, he had not noticed anything. But when Adina was on the call, he had purposely read two pages in detail.
Following his careful reading, he realized how hilarious the proposal for the program design was.
The final expected outcome of the proposal was similar to Mr. Wintersâ prediction, but the process of realizing it was ridiculous. The most common programming languages currently on the market had disadvantages in this programâs design. Besides, they were broken and combined into a brand new coding method. Was this woman too gifted or over-confident?
Mr. Garcia shook his head and drove back to Winters Corporation.
After that, he took the proposal to the top floor. At this time, Duke was having a meeting with the executives in the meeting room. Jake was the only one arranging and storing the documents in the CEOâs office.
When Jake saw Mr. Garcia come in, he happily said, âMr. Garcia, did you meet Ms. Daugherty today?â
Jake might not pay attention to many things, but he remembered everything about Ms. Daugherty.
After all, Mr. Winters treated her differently.
âYes, I went over to talk about the proposal for the preliminary design-â Halfway through, Mr. Garcia was interrupted by Jake. âActually, Mr. Garcia, when you go to Ms. Daughertyâs company, itâs better to go with Mr.
Winters.â Jake winked. âMr. Winters cares about this project very much, so itâs better that he personally goes and discusses it with her.â
Mr. Garcia caught the meaning behind his words. Did Mr. Winters care about the project or the person in charge of the project? Was Mr. Winters really attracted to Ms. Daugherty? Did he hand over such a challenging innovative project to a newly established studio because of that?
Mr. Garcia seemed a little conflicted. âThis is such an important innovative project, and weâre working together with Mr. Sunderland and Mr. Walker. Theyâve invested at least $ 500,000,000. How could Mr.
Winters recklessly decide on a collaborator?â
âMr. Garcia, you donât know about this. Actually, Ms. Daugherty isâ¦â Before Jake could finish his sentence, he saw a cold and tall figure walking over from the other end of the corridor. He immediately schooled his expression before he respectfully greeted, âMr. Winters!â Mr. Garcia also turned around and greeted Duke respectfully before he handed over the design proposal. âMr. Winters, this is the first draft for the A-F project design submitted by Ms. Daugherty of LaStar Technology Corporation. Please have a look.â
Duke took the proposal and casually flipped through it. As he read it, he asked, âWhat do you think about the first draft?â
