Chapter 522

The next day.

Neural Intelligence made a bold move.

Sylvie wasn't particularly worried about it.

So what if the news got out?

She'd already run the numbers and weighed the risks-this was money owed to her as a personal bonus and due for payout anyway. Even if it looked like a temporary advance, once she paid it back, the other shareholders could just sign an agreement waiving any penalties.

There were only three major shareholders.

Why should she be anxious?

She arrived at the office early that morning.

The meeting was scheduled for ten.

At nine-thirty, her assistant came in and announced, "President Fielding, Ms. Thorne from VistaLink Technologies is here. She says she has something important to discuss with you."

Sylvie paused for a moment, not even looking up from her work.

Without hesitation, she replied, "I have a meeting to prepare for. If she wants to see me, she'll have to wait."
