As be explained the feasibility of this project, Echo and Brandon wifily became his admirers. They praised him nonstop.
“Mr. Reed is such a brilliant entrepreneur. He is simply the best in space technology, and now see, he’s presenting like an experienced courant Damn! I have goosebumps over my skin!”
This long session of admiration named my mood, reminding me of my hitter past where he was the center of attention Lae today. I couldn’t help but regret supporting him when he was nothing.
I was ready to take everything back
I thought to myself, “If you hadn’t treated me that way back then, we could be partners today. Felix”
As soon as Felix completed the presentation, he looked at me for feedback. My colleagues were also curious about my decision. I could read their faces easily where it was clearly written in bold letters Yes. So, I had to sugar coat my response to maintain the air of mystery.
Like what’s the rush?
After all, revenge is a dish best served when it’s cold!
Clearing my throat, I voiced my opinion. “Your presentation was impressive, Mr. Reed. Let’s see how your latest satellite project performs before we make any commitments.”
His passionate pitch was only met with a cautions conument from me, causing him to look extremely disappointed, even though he tried his best to hide it

“Drielle, I’ve thought about you every day since you left. I even kept some of your research files, hoping to find any clue about where you went. I know you resent mu, but… can you give me a chance to make things right?”
I was so absorbed in my tablet screen that I didn’t even glance up at him, Interrupting him coldly, I said, “Mr. Reed, I’m already giving you a chance by considering thas partnership. If you keep bringing up personal matters, then there’s no need for us to continue.”
Felix stopped toward me, leaning over my desk his voice rising with desperation. “No, I don’t believe it. To have feelings for me! To quickest when he near. Lean make you love me again…”

Felix reached for my hand, trying to place it against his chest. The presumption radiating from him was unmistakable.
My cheeks flushed, but it was from anger, not attraction.
I yanked my hand away and stood up sharply, my chair rolling back
“I’ll give you three seconds to leave, or I’ll call security. Do you want to embarrass yourself in front of everyone?”
Reluctantly, Felix stepped back and headed toward the door, muttering, “I won’t give up
