Betrayed by the Father Reborn in His Rival's Arms novel Chapter 47

Silas despised people with zero moral compass. His parents had taught him that character mattered more than intellect, and a brilliant mind meant nothing in a rotten soul.

After exchanging a few more words with Lucius, Sterling sensed that Silas had no desire to socialize with his former students and said politely, "My apologies, Mr. Whitman. Ms. Monroe and I were in the middle of discussing some business, so we won't take up any more of your time."

Madeline was just about to steer the conversation back to the project.

Lucius suddenly interjected, "Actually, I came over specifically to introduce my partner to you. Liliana holds a master's degree from abroad and is the Chief Engineer of our gaming division. She's currently spearheading the domestic and international tech operations for Lightning Interactive, and I was hoping you might consider her for your new project."

Given Lucius's immense influence, Sterling couldn't just brush him off, and the mention of Lightning Interactive instantly piqued his interest.

"I heard Lightning Interactive has been dominating the international markets recently, and I'm actually a player myself. The game is flawlessly executed. You truly have an eye for talent, Mr. Whitman."

Sterling turned to Liliana with newfound respect. "The graphics and environmental architecture in that game require a phenomenal level of coding skill and aesthetic vision. If Ms. Lansbury has the capability to lead Lightning Interactive, she is absolutely worth considering as a partner for Sinclair Smart Systems' new project."

Silas furrowed his brows, shooting a worried glance at Madeline.

Madeline's fingers curled into tight fists.

She had tolerated Lucius's emotional abuse for years. She had swallowed the humiliation of his affair and his frigid cruelty.

But she absolutely refused to stand by and watch Liliana steal her hard-earned business opportunities.

A sharp smile graced Madeline's lips. "That sounds wonderful. Since Ms. Lansbury is the mastermind behind Lightning Interactive, why don't we have a little technical discussion right now?"
