Chapter 92 - The Only Hope


    Sylvia Morin strode with rushed strides, taking her ce in the center of the stage with her brown hair


    swaying gracefully. She was smartly dressed in her usual professional attire, with her short skirt. Her


    stunning face had a polished look that radiated an aura of distinction.


    Smiling gently, she said quietly, “Good evening judges... Mr. Winter, Mr. Todd, and Mr. Gardner.”


    "Good evening, Sylvia Morin," Patrick replied with a warm smile. "Finally, there is a participant that I


    find quite interesting. What business idea do you want to present tonight? I''m sure it will be interesting,"


    he continued.


    "Yes, I can''t wait to hear it too," Cash Todd chimed in. "Please present your business idea soon."


    Sylvia was the first female to make an appearance that evening, and she stunned everyone with her


    professional demeanor and her stunning looks. Her physical appearance and facial features were


    particrly remarkable.


    Sylvia had a serious expression, but her sharp eyes and firm words held their own beauty. With just a


    few words, she couldmand the attention of anyone in the room.


    "Wow!" eximed the first person, eyes widening in awe. "She''s really beautiful, isn''t she? For a


    moment I thought she was a celebrity! And, at this point, I feel like she''s more of a celebrity than a


    businessman."


    "Are you stupid?" another person interjected, rolling their eyes. "Of course there are also many


    sessful female businessmen, and most of them are also beautiful. They have the money to pay for


    their needs, after all."


    "But this girl hasn''t be a sessful businessman yet, has she?" the other person countered.


    "That''s why she''s here tonight. She needs funds to finance her business."


    "I agree that some women can be prettier after getting beauty treatments," the other person


    replied, "but I think Sylvia is already naturally beautiful. She was born with an amazing face, and the


    aura and charisma she has is really dominant."


    They swallowed their saliva as they finished, awestruck.


    Sylvia started her presentation immediately, presenting a detailed 3D sketch of her vision for the future


    of Golden Lake, a hugeke located near Soutke.


    "Soutke is a highly strategic city," she said. "It''s directly connected to argeke that has been


    essential to the livelihoods of many of Soutke''s residents from all walks of life for decades. But the


    potential of thiske is still huge and, with the ns that I have formted over the years, I''m certain


    that Soutke will be even more prosperous and that the lives of many impoverished people can


    be improved in the future. By empowering local people with more resources, we can achieve greater


    economic equality. That''s my vision."


    The thunderous pping of the crowd reverberated throughout the expansive studio as they were left


    in awe of the knowledge Sylvia had shared. Many were astonished by her brilliance and intellect, and


    one voice in the crowd marveled, "Man, she''s really smart! I can''t even fathom the amount of effort she


    put into preparing such a big design."


    "Yeah, and I''m amazed by how far her vision goes, but one thing I''m not sure about is the cost of


    achieving all her dreams. I''m not sure she''ll get the funding she''s hoping for."

    "I''m confident that they will ept her business proposal," remarked another one, gesturing


    emphatically. "Just look at the potential she has for Soutke city and its inhabitants. She is sure to


    receive a great deal of support."


    From the responses of the audience, it became evident that the judges had formed their own opinion of


    Sylvia''s ideas. Patrick gave a light p, expressing his admiration for Sylvia''s business presentation.


    "Really, very impressive," he praised. "Absolutely extraordinary! Sylvia, you left me speechless. Your


    brilliance is unparalleled; this is the best business proposal I''ve ever seen while sitting in this chair."


    "Thanks, Mr. Winter," Sylvia said with a smile. She had put in a lot of effort for the presentation and had


    been hoping for the support she had been expecting.


    Patrick was not at all interested in the business proposition Sylvia proposed, especially with the high


    investment value of 30 billion dors. He felt that the girl was too intoxicated with her offer. However,


    one thing Patrick was very interested in was her beauty, which he felt would be a shame to miss out on.


    "Sylvia, I want to ask if you''re sure this business will do well with that amount of expense? Have you


    ever thought about how big 30 billion dors is? I think you are aiming too high with this business, I


    have a more attractive offer for you. What if you be a special staff member in thepany I lead?


    I''m sure you can do more useful things with your talent than to dream of things that are too big and out


    of reach." he said.


    Sylvia had a look of slight annoyance on her face when she heard Patrick''s answer, but she still kept


    herposure. She continued to try to convince them that she had thoroughly nned and calcted


    every detail and that she was sure there was not the slightest w in her n.


    “Mr. Winter, thank you for the offer you have provided. However, I still remain adamant in wanting to


    pursue this project. I have meticulously nned out each and every step of the process, and I would


    dly exin the details further if necessary. I am confident that after this project is sessfully


    me on this.”


    Patrick was confident that even Arthur would have abandoned the venture given its high investment


    value, so he felt confident in pressing the red button and declining the business proposal. To make up


    for it, he had crafted a very attractive offer for Sylvia and was sure he could entice her to work for him.


    Patrick quickly pressed the red button on his desk, and a loud ringing sound echoed through the studio.


    "Don''t take this as a rejection from me," he said, his voice full of reassurance. "I''m epting you as my


    most VIP staff, a position no one has ever upied. I truly believe in your talent, and I know you won''t


    pass up this golden opportunity, right?"


    Sylvia attempted to contain her frustration when Patrick denied her business offer, instead offering her


    another job. Yet, she still persisted, knowing that two more judges were left; she was determined to do


    whatever it took to obtain the desired funding.


    "Mr. Todd," she began, her voice filled with hope, "I am willing to borate on this business n in


    even greater detail to make it more appealing to you. I firmly believe that this venture has incredible


    potential for sess in the future, and I earnestly hope you will consider my offer."


    Cash Todd smiled warmly at Sylvia and said, "Sylvia, you really are very brilliant and smart, but this


    business idea of yours is just not reasonable. I''d love to recruit you to work for me, but I think you


    should take Mr. Winter''s offer instead. Try to be more realistic and don''t waste your time on something


    that won''t work out. It''s probably the best option for you."


    With that, Cash pressed the red button, and in the end, Arthur was the only one who had yet to make a


    decision.


    Sylvia shook her head slowly, her heart pounding faster with each passing second. The only hope she


    had was Arthur; at that moment, she turned to him, her eyes wide with anticipation.
