Chapter 354

When Elodie heard that Naylor was already downstairs in the VistaLink

Technologies lobby, she didn't even look up from her work. News about TerraCore Technologies' latest maneuvers always managed to reach her ears, and she knew Naylor was eager to break into the drone manufacturing market. If he wanted in, he'd have no choice but to rely on her new flight control system.

Alexander, on the other hand, was far more decisive. He turned to his assistant and said, "Please let Mr. Whitaker know I'm out of the office. Ask him to come another time."

He hadn't forgotten Naylor's past remarks about Elodie-always laced with bias and condescension. The last thing VistaLink Technologies wanted was to let someone benefit from their hard work and still look down on them.

Elodie had no objections.

Downstairs, the assistant found Naylor waiting by the reception desk. With a polite smile, he said, "Mr. Whitaker, I'm afraid Mr. Sterling is out at the moment. Sorry you had to come all this way."

Naylor frowned immediately. "Any idea when he'll be back?"

The assistant's expression didn't change. "I'm afraid I don't know, Mr. Whitaker. My apologies."

Naylor wasn't naïve. If VistaLink Technologies had even a shred of goodwill left, they'd have suggested rescheduling. Instead, even though their excuse was paper-thin, they didn't bother pretending otherwise.
