No More Layovers for a Love That Won't Land novel Chapter 210

Rex thought she was being humble and said, “There’s no need to be modest, Miss Brown-”

“It’s not modesty,” Raven replied. “It has always been my dream to learn from Mr. Nolan. I met him a while ago, but I didn’t meet the standard to become his student.”

Raven was being very frank.

Rex listened and felt that she was sincere and positive.

From this, he also understood why Raven was so interested in Johnny–not just because he was outstanding in AI technology but also because he was a student of Nolan.

He said, “If you didn’t meet the standard, then just keep working hard. I believe with your abilities, Miss Brown, you’ll surely achieve that goal one day.”

Raven smiled and was about to speak when Matteo walked in, “Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Hardin.”

Rex stood up, “No need to apologize, Mr. Wilson. I arrived early.”

After exchanging pleasantries, Matteo smiled at Raven and then went upstairs with Rex to discuss work.

Raven was about to immerse herself in work when her phone rang. It was a call from Logan.

Naturally, Logan had also seen the press conference. The tremendous impact caused by the Cole press conference caught his attention. He realized that the two projects from Cole would likely earn billions, which made him anxious..

It should be known that their Brown family also ran a tech company. However, due to the lack of core technology, their products had no competitiveness in the market, and they had been losing money for years.

They had been barely maintaining operations without seeing any progress.

If losing money could bring some results, it wouldn’t be so bad, but after so many years, their tech company had not improved. Each day of delay meant more wasted money–could he not be anxious?

He called Raven hoping she could help think of a solution. He knew that Matteo had been helping Raven grow these days, so he wanted to know if Raven’s abilities were now enough to catch the eye of Nolan.

After hanging up the phone, Logan put down his mobile device.

He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache while watching the Cole Investment Promotion Press Conference on the large screen in the living room.

Sophia leisurely ate some fruit, watching as Freya took the stage at such a formal and important event, speaking with s

oquence.

This made her feel uncomfortable, and she turned off the TV in annoyance, saying, “Why does she get to speak on stage? She stole the spotlight.”

Sophia responded, “That’s not the point.”

In her view, Freya speaking at the Investment Promotion Conference wasn’t a big deal, nor was it important that she was able to do so by relying on Johnny.

These were all minor issues. The truly important thing was Cole’s technology. That was what was truly valuable.

Logan understood what Sophia meant. Indeed, Freya did perform well during her speech, but when it came to the part about Cole’s technology, both Logan and Sophia felt that it had been arranged in advance by Johnny.

Freya herself could not possibly know so much.

Tracy remarked, “But she really did rely on Johnny.”

75.2%

No matter how you looked at it, Freya had indeed been quite prominent today, and this had inadvertently helped the Miller family. In her view, that alone showed that Freya had quite a bit of ability.

However, Sophia was not concerned with these things. She had noticed that Harry had been watching Freya from the audience. His gaze was intensely focused.

He had never looked at her with such attention. She thought that if she had been the one on stage, Harry’s gaze would have been on her.

By the time Freya and Johnny left the hotel, it was nearly ten o’clock at night. After a full day of work, Freya had a headache from exhaustion.

Once they left the hotel, Freya drove the car to her parking garage. It was only then that she realized she had subconsciously returned to the apartment in the residential complex where she now lived.

It was so late that she didn’t plan on returning to the Miller family’s house.

She got out of the car and took out her phone, carefully going through her messages. She noticed that both the Miller family and Isabella had called her tonight.

In addition to the calls, Isabella had also sent a message around 8 p.m., asking when she would return.

Freya glanced at the messages and then put her phone away. After going upstairs and taking a shower, she collapsed onto her bed and fell asleep.

The Next Day.

She had just woken up when Isabella’s phone call came through.

Freya didn’t want to answer, but just as her phone was quieting down, the landline from the Miller family rang.

Reluctantly, she picked up, “Grandmother.”
