Sean grinned checkily, "Quite a few major companies are reaching out to our software developers to collaborate. Even Lopez Group came knocking." Shakira's curiosity was piqued. "Lopez Group?"

"Yeah, they're impressed with the core automation technology of our software and want to invite the lead designer to join their biggest project of the year."

At this point, Sean, who was all about the drama, winked at Shakira. "What do you say, Shakira? Want to earn big with Lopez Group? I hear they offer the core creative team an amazing eight-figure salary." Gideon disapprovingly suggested, "If Shakira cared about money, Virmo wouldn't be free."

"That's true. Shakira isn't worried about small changes," Sean added playfully. "If Shakira came back to lead Yonder Digital, who knows how much our profits would grow. An eight-figure salary would be just pocket money." Shakira coughed a couple of times. This was a topic she didn't dare continue, or else Sean's irritation would flood the entire conversation.

"I've got to do my internship. Yonder Digital can wait... We'll talk later." She quickly found an excuse and logged off.

Seeing her unease, Sean was puzzled. "Gideon, with Yonder Digital behind her, why does Shakira even care about this internship? She could just explain the situation to Mr. Jensen. As the founder of Yonder Digital, does she really need to bother with an internship?" Gideon stared at the now-darkened avatar, his eyes flickering with a mix of light and shadow, his face deeply pensive. After a while, he finally replied to Sean, "Maybe... she just doesn't want to see you."

Sean couldn't believe his ears. "What do you mean by that, Gideon? Why are you running? You'd better explain yourself to me!"

These past few days, Shakira had adjusted her jetlag and was now waking up naturally right at eight. After getting washed up. she went downstairs and discovered Walter leisurely sipping coffee and reading the news, though he was supposed to be in the study. "Good morning," said Shakira.

Shakira sat down and took a big bite of her sandwich, which contained her homemade mayonnaise, creamy and rich. With a satisfied squint, she found a moment to ask Walter, "Why don't you have an early meeting today?"

"I'll drop you off at the company first, and then I'll attend the meeting," replied Walter.

"Oh, okay." Shakira nodded automatically. But once the information sank in, she was shocked, nearly choking, and suddenly wide awake. "You're taking me to the company?"

Walter handed her some milk, raising an eyebrow at her exaggerated reaction. "Can't I?"

Shakira shook her head. "Of course not."
