Winning Her Heart Back

 Would Rather Not

Jodie quickly responded, "It's called the SmartCare Corporation."

"Bryan said that I'm incapable of shaking the three families.' Emelie continued with an expressionless face," I'll let him see what I'm capable of."

The situation with the SmartCare Corporation was something they had planned long ago.

Jodie replied, "Understood."

The Swanson Corporation was a venture capital firm. In simple terms, they invested in various startups and small to medium-sized enterprises, ultimately becoming their financial backer.

In recent years, the Swanson Corporation had been optimistic about the application prospects of artificial intelligence in the medical field, so they had invested in about eight startups in that industry.

One of them was the SmartCare Corporation, who were developing an Al-assisted diagnostic system.

They performed exceptionally well at a technology industry demonstration, attracting interest from investors, which gave them the power to choose their partners. The Swanson Corporation had to put in a lot of effort to become their shareholder.

Afterward, the Swanson Corporation placed great importance on the SmartCare Corporation. They provided the company with as much money and resources as needed, intending to groom it into the next flagship of the Swanson Corporation.

Recently, SmartCare Corporation entered a critical phase of development. However, just at this crucial moment, two key members of the team became embroiled in a romantic conflict with each other.

The issue arose when the man was caught cheating by the woman. She was unable to forgive him, so she insisted on a divorce. She even wanted to sell her shares and leave the company entirely.

The woman was a core member of the research team. With the couple at odds, the research progress came to a halt.

Bryan even personally organized a mediation session, but it was to no avail. The woman still insisted on getting a divorce. In the end, the situation was irreconcilable, and the two parted ways.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

After the woman left, Bryan continued to pour money into the project, recruiting top talent to push the project forward.

However, just as the SmartCare Corporation's development was in full swing, a company called the SwiftCure Corporation suddenly emerged, launching its first product, which was also an AI diagnostic system.

The product quickly gained market traction, and the SwiftCure Corporation became a hot new player in the industry. Many companies were eager to collaborate or invest in them, and the company's reputation soared. When Bryan heard this report from his subordinates in his office, his expression turned grim. The AI diagnostic system was the core product of the SmartCare Corporation and the primary reason why he had invested in them.

Over the past year, he had invested significant resources such as money, manpower, and effort, hoping to make a spectacular debut when the product was released and aiming to dominate the market.

But now, the opportunity has been snatched away from them. Even if they released their product later, it would just be seen as a copycat, jumping on the bandwagon and picking up scraps.

"Mr. Swanson, we've investigated, and the woman had joined the SwiftCure Corporation after leaving the SmartCare Corporation. This is a blatant violation of her non-compete agreement, and she might have even leaked trade secrets. I'll have the legal department sue her right away!" an employee said.

Bryan closed his eyes. Even if they managed to drag the woman to court, forcing her to pay for damages or even imprison her, it wouldn't change the situation. The strategic goal he had aimed for was now a complete

failure, with significant losses.

"First, investigate the SwiftCure Corporation. Bryan's voice was low. "She left the SmartCare Corporation just half a month ago. Even if she had joined the SwiftCure Corporation the next day and sold all the designs, half a month is not enough time for them to develop their product."

He suspected that the woman had been bought off long ago. The affair, the divorce, leaving the company, and selling her shares were all distractions.

The real goal was to delay the SmartCare Corporation's development and product launch while diverting his attention.

The final investigation confirmed his suspicions. "The owner behind the SwiftCure Corporation is none other than Filo Group'

And with that, the mastermind became crystal clear.

When William learned of this, he smiled faintly and said to Ashton, "I told you before, she still holds a grudge. A few words from you guys weren't going to resolve that."

Ashton pressed her lips together. She had a different perspective on this matter.

She said, "Ms. Hoven clearly targeted Mr. Collins before. The fact that she suddenly turned her sights on Mr. Swanson suggests that what he said had affected her."

Emelie had been touched, and by rights, William should have been pleased. However, his gaze darkened instead.

He walked to the window and stared into the distance.

His voice drifted away in the breeze as the sun set. "I'd rather she not forgive me."
