Chapter 1603
During this period, Roberts Group proposed an acquisition to Eisen Company. Eisen Company had
two months to make their decision. Hendrix made a generous offer. Therefore, there would probably
be a drastic trend of share transfers in the industry soon.
When Rowane barged into the house, Hendrix was having a meal with me.
Her stilettos clicked loudly against the floor before we even saw her enter, in line with her
mboyant personality.
Rowane entered the living room and walked around. I was the first to notice her as I called out,
"Miss Zanes, have you had dinner? Come and join us."
Hearing my voice, Rowane turned around. I found that she was not only out of breath but also had
an unpleasant expression on her face.
Rowane walked over and threw the documents in her hands in front of Hendrix, shouting in anger,
"Mr. Roberts, why didn''t you discuss this with us? Our Al development is already showing some
positive results. What''s the meaning of you acquiring Eisen Company? Are you nning to fire
our Al team?"
Although it was not the first time I had witnessed Rowane''s bad temper, I was still shocked. I could
tell that Rowane was really furious. I quicklyforted her in a reassuring manner. "Calm down.
Let''s sit down and have a talk."
Rowane was still really mad and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She had no intention of
making concessions.
Rowane didn''t like me before. When Hendrix ignored herpletely, sitting on the chair as he
carefully fed me soup, it enraged Rowane.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
Hendrix really did care for me, but sometimes, he made me seem like a good-for-nothing, who only
knew to seduce him and make him lose focus at work. I hurriedly pushed him away and gave him a
look. Work was more important.
Only then did Hendrix slowly put down the bowl of soup in his hand and turn around with an
indifferent expression on his face. "This is a decision made by the executives. You''re just a
technician. Please know your ce, Rowane."
Hendrix''s words were a bit harsh, but his words were not unreasonable. Rowane was experienced
and skilled, but she was just a senior technician in Roberts Group. The decisions in business
development were indeed not part of her responsibilities.
She was just a technician, but she barged into her boss'' house and questioned him with no mercy.
Hendrix was being kind enough, I thought. If it had been someone else, Rowane would probably be
fired.
Rowane had always been verypetitive, and she didn''t intend to admit her mistakes. With an
arrogant attitude, she questioned, "Yes, I''m just in charge of Al. But Mr. Roberts, in the past few
years, thepany invested hundreds of millions in Al development. The overseaspanies
made quite a profit because of this. That''s why Roberts Group was in such a hurry to establish our
own Al department. My subordinates worked day and night. Now that the results of the first phase
are finally out, you''re telling me that you''re acquiring a roboticspany in Denmiles? What about
our team?"
I could understand Rowane. Thepany''s budget was limited, and it wasn''t a small amount of
money that was needed to acquire apany. Acquiring a newpany would definitely reduce
the budget for the Al department. Slowing down would be a small matter. Discouraging the
members of the Al team, however, would be a big deal. If they were not careful, the cost incurred for
earlier developments would all be for no reason.
Rowane brought up the Al department of thepany step by step. It was no wonder that her
anger was so over the top.
