Chapter 191 - True Motive (1/2)
When Delilah reached Country Z via the underwater railway, the poised lady was picked up by a private chauffeur. The car headed off in the direction that wasn't Gray and Sato's home. Instead, it was driving towards the Central of the country, where large conglomerates have set up their headquarters here.
Delilah's true motive in Country Z was slowly being revealed. As the car finally came to a stop outside of a modern glass building, Delilah was welcomed into the building by the ground staff. She was guided around by a young lady who seemed to be an assistant. The beautiful and talented lady was brought to the top floor, taking a private elevator that could only be used by executives.
The elevator opened to reveal a long and large meeting room table. Around the table sat seven individuals, all dressed up in formal attire. The lighting in the room mainly came from the glass windows that refract light into the space. As the weather today in Country Z was gloomy, the room was dimly lit, almost suggesting ominous energy in the room. However, the situation was not exactly that case.
”Welcome to Country Z, Ms Kouglas.” The man sitting at the very end of the table stood up and walked towards Delilah. He was very respectful to the 29 year old in front of him.
”Thank you, Justin. There is no need to be so formal. It is not like we have not met before.” Delilah smiled as she shook the man named Justin's hand.
”Alright, alright. I was just kidding. Take a seat Delilah.”
”Mm.” The both of them took their seats, sitting directly opposite of each other.
”So, the Executives and I have read the proposal you have given to us. The things written in it seemed to favour us far too much, leaving you with nothing. Was there a reason behind you creating such a proposal?” Justin casually flipped through a file that had several pages in it. The file was the proposal that Delilah had proposed to him.
”Yes, there is a reason behind it.” Delilah hid nothing from him.
”Oh? Go on.”
”As stated in my proposal, I would like to join your company as the Co-Head Developer of your AI system in SYMBOL. You should know that I was the one that created Bapple's latest AI system and had been perfecting it over the years. So, me jumping to your company now could be seen as an anomaly. That was why I suggested a proposal that is favoured to you.” Delilah continued, ”The reason behind me changing companies is even simpler. I want to seek revenge.”
”Revenge?”
”Yes,” Delilah sat straighter than she was before, ”I want to completely blow Bapple's AI system out of the park. For everything they had done to my team and I, I would like to destroy them with my own hands.”
