Chapter 288: Like Enemies
"Is everything alright? First, your people tried to block my sister from discussing cooperation. Now you're here yourself. Couldn't your company continue without trying to snatch work from my sister? And your childhood friend is here too. What's your business with my sister? You and I are done. Let me tell you, if you keep bothering my sister, my brother will snatch away all your company's deals!"
Balk's guarded demeanor left Sylvia bemused. But he didn't want to engage with Cyril either, so he just let him stand there. His phone rang, and he moved aside to answer, ignoring Cyril's presence even more.
Seeing Sylvia had left, Balk warned Cyril again before walking away. Cyril then approached Sylvia to talk. Other people, having finally spotted Cyril, came over to greet him, hoping Cyril would remember their interactions for future smooth dealings.
"Why did you come over, Cyril? Was it because you knew I was here? I know seeing me here must be irritating for you, but I didn't expect Sylvia to be here either. I wonder why he's here when his brother is already doing research here. It's really annoying, he's clearly doing this on purpose, knowing you're also cooperating here."
Mia's angry tone made Cyril pause. His eyes held a hint of danger as he looked at Mia.
"How do you know so much about my company's affairs? You shouldn't know who I'm collaborating with next. Who told you all this? Did you intentionally send someone to spy on my company? I don't want to say anything harsh, but considering our relationship, you need to understand one thing: your actions could be seen as stealing company secrets, and I have the right to report you."Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing Cyril's words, Mia was stunned. She didn't mean any harm, but perhaps her father had different intentions. She began to panic. Did Cyril really suspect her?
But she hadn't done anything to betray Cyril's trust. The thought made Mia want to cry.
"I'm only here for one season. But let
me warn you, think twice before
doing anything to Sylvia. Can you handle the consequences? If not, suggest you don't do anything. This is advice from someone who cares about you for so many years."
Initially, Mia didn't have strong feelings towards Sylvia. But after this incident with Cyril, she developed a strong opinion. However, Sylvia didn't know about this or that Cyril had inadvertently brought an enemy upon himself.
"My brother told me this lab is really good, but some people here have connections with companies in the South. If we can't collaborate with them, it's fine. He'll find other people."
After hanging up the phone, Sylvia told Balk. Balk sighed. He thought Sylvia would stay for a few more seasons, but it seemed like she was preparing to switch labs.
"But they do a great job with artificial intelligence. After seeing this, I have some ideas. I'll discuss them with my brother later. Maybe we can upgrade the lab."
Sylvia had her own thoughts. After hearing this, Balk didn't know what to say. He wasn't sure whether to be proud of his sister's prowess or worried about her actions.
"After this season, I'll step back. Then you can handle the show properly, little brother. After all, so much money has been spent at home. Don't let it all go to waste."
Seeing his sister's determined look to leave, Balk reluctantly agreed.
After chatting for a while, the siblings prepared for today's filming projects. Sylvia seemed more relaxed now, observing the team's work without much pressure. She noted areas for improvement in her own lab as well.
