“It’s not your baby being aborted, of course you’re not impulsive!”
The doctor, seeing that Avery was very emotional and that the matter was indeed somewhat serious, had to change his tone, “Miss Tate, I am so sorry. Just now, I used the wrong words. Please have a seat and drink some water first, I’ll go and have a look.”
The doctor poured her a glass of water and then immediately went to his seniors.
About half an hour later, the doctor was back.

“Miss Tate, do you know Chelsea Tierney? She’s the one who came to check your file.”
Getting the answer, Avery left the hospital.
Never thought Chelsea regarded her as a pest and a thorn in the flesh!
However, there was no way she was going to be beaten passively.
She would definitely find a way to make Chelsea pay the price! 2
Avery entered the president’s office of Tate Industries. Her father had worked in the office
before he died.
The vice president had been waiting inside for a long time.
“Avery, I want you to come here today because of two things,” Shaun poured her a cup of water, “Jun Hertz has changed his mind, originally he wanted to invest in us, but today he wants to buy our company for 155 million directly.”
Avery saw that the vice president did not look so pleasant and guessed, “Is this price too low?”
“If the company was in its normal days, acquiring the company at a price of 155 million was plainly impossible. But now the company is not what it used to be, and the price given by Jun Hertz is just a little higher compared to the other offers.” The vice president said, “In

fact, being acquired at a low price is not the hardest part, what is hard is that after the acquisition by Jun Hertz, the core business will change. To put it simply, he doesn’t see a future in driverless cars and won’t do this…” (26)
“Then why does he want to do the acquisition?” Avery wondered.
“They’re interested in the Super Brain System that our company designed. This system, in general terms, is artificial intelligence, and with it, there is no longer any need for a driver.
Also, this system can be applied to other fields, such as, robots, drones and others.” (33
“Is this system so valuable?” Avery asked. @
The vice president laughed bitterly. “Do you know how much your father spent on developing it? Well over 155 million. How could your father have left the company to you because he wanted you to take on his debt? He was hoping that the company would come to life with you and that you’ll be able to take Tate Industries to a more glorious future.” 12
Avery’s eyes dimmed a few moments. 6
She feared she was not capable of doing so now. 5
“One more thing, I don’t know if your father told you.” The vice president said, “The development of the new system was in its final stages, but it was stopped when your dad fell ill because your dad has the stuff in his hands. He doesn’t open access and no one else can get any of the insider information about it.” (12)
The vice president walked over to the wall of bookshelves and pressed a button. (12
In a flash, the wall of bookshelves moved away, and an entrance appeared. (11)
“We have looked for many master locksmiths to open your dad’s safe, but we have not been successful. Avery, do you know the password to your dad’s safe? He must have said
something to you before he died, right?”
Avery’s heart was greatly shaken. 3
She entered the hidden door and saw a large safe. (6)

In this modest space she saw a family portrait hanging on the wall. 31)
It was Dad, Mum, and her. 9
Her eyes reddened instantly. 11
She thought Dad had long forgotten that she and Mum were his true family.

“Avery, since we can’t afford to keep the Tate Industries alive, then let it go bankrupt! We’ll sell this system secretly and split the money. That way we’re all rich.” The vice president pushed the glasses on his nose, his ambition clear as day, “If the Tate Industries doesn’t go bankrupt, the money paid by Jun Hertz won’t fall into our pockets.” (67
Avery looked at his greedy face and she was suddenly alerted inwardly.
