Chapter 192

"Would I be fortunate enough to join the team as well? I spent years furthering my studies in Verdania and could offer VistaLink Technologies some technical support."

Sylvie put herself forward without hesitation.

But starting a new project was never that simple.

It required smooth, multi-faceted collaboration.

Financing was crucial, but the real core was having the right partners at the helm, steering the team with precision.

Alexander clearly understood what Elodie was thinking. He shot her a quick look; when she didn't respond, he finally said, "We're still in the early planning stages. If we find ourselves short on technical expertise, Ms. Fielding will definitely be considered."

It was the kind of polite brush-off everyone recognized.

Sylvie didn't seem discouraged. Instead, she smiled with perfect confidence, "Of course. I just wanted to express my sincerity to Mr. Sterling. Please give it some thought."
