Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time

After her assistant left, Vesta felt a growing weight settle over her.

Technology was the lifeblood of the company.

With Axiom Flux Technologies blazing a trail ahead of them, if Neural Nexus Tech

wanted even a foothold in the autonomous vehicle market, they'd have to achieve

another technological breakthrough—something even more significant than

before.

But breakthroughs like that were nearly impossible to force.

So far, she'd already poured six or seven hundred million dollars into Neural

Nexus Tech.

But now, with Axiom Flux Technologies stirring up the waters, the future of Neural

Nexus Tech looked more uncertain than ever. If she kept investing, and Neural

Nexus Tech failed to deliver a breakthrough that truly made waves, it would be like

tossing a billion—maybe even two billion—straight down the drain.

And yet, the idea of giving up here made her stomach twist with frustration.

Should she press forward, or cut her losses?

Her thoughts wandered to Thorne.

But even someone as brilliant as him couldn't guarantee the company would

achieve the kind of breakthrough they needed, could he? Even if she asked, he'd

never be able to give her a truly definitive answer.

Vesta sat there for a long while, lost in thought, until her assistant knocked and

entered again, snapping her back to reality. She realized it was already midday.

"Mr. Hawkins, shall I arrange lunch for you?" her assistant asked.

Vesta glanced at her phone, saying nothing.
