Chapter 123
Aurelia quietly watched as Kimberly read the presentation slides. She wasn’t even familiar with the
script and needed to glance at it every now and then.
“Stop.” The robot spoke up. “Did you write this?”
“Yes, I did,” Kimberly said firmly.
“Alright. Then, don’t read from the slides anymore. Otherwise, why would we need

you here?
“W–What?” Kimberly was obviously panicked.
Although she had seen Aurelia’s proposal, she hated Aurelia too much to actually read it. After all, she
could just read from the script when the time came.
Without looking at the slides, she couldn’t even remember what she was supposed to say next. “What’s
wrong? Is there a problem?” The robot turned its head and stared at Kimberly.
She froze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was just a small robot, but she felt as if there were a pair of cold eyes staring at her through it.
She pursed her lips. “No. Next is… is…”
She lost her composure under the robot’s gaze. Her mind went blank, so she turned to Zachary for
help.
Zachary was livid. Frustration filled his eyes.
The perfect answer was already in Kimberly’s hands, but she still couldn’t do it!
If her uncle wasn’t so influential, he would have gone up and dragged her back to her seat himself.
Zachary could only gesture with his mouth silently, but he was soon discovered.
The robot said, “Mr. Zeller, isn’t this her proposal? Why are you giving her hints?”
Zachary immediately smiled and tried to smooth things over.
“Kimberly values this collaboration very highly, so she’s very nervous. I hope you can forgive her.
Maybe we should let her continue with the presentation according to the slides.”
The robot remained silent, and the others looked serious.
At this moment, Jason stood up and said, “It’s alright. Ms. Watson’s proposal is quite interesting. We
don’t mind waiting for her to remember her lines. But don’t take too long, or we might start doubting
whether she really wrote the proposal.”
“I wrote it! It’s definitely written by me!” Kimberly said angrily. She glared at Jason and continued, “Mr.
Lynch, what exactly are you suggesting?”
“Ms. Watson, I wouldn’t dare to question you. Since you insist that you wrote it, you should be able to
recall it in no time, right?” Jason looked at Kimberly with a sly smile.

Only then did Kimberly realize that Jason had set her up. She clenched her fists in anger.
Jason had to be trying to help Aurelia!
The angrier she got, the harder it was for her to remember her lines. Her head became emptier under
everyone’s gaze.
Some people even started whispering.
“Isn’t this her proposal? Why can’t she remember even after thinking for so long?”
“A proposal is something you must repeatedly check. If she was the one who wrote it, she couldn’t

“The presentation slides contain the essential information. After completing it, she should have an
impression of the whole process. But she doesn’t seem familiar with it at all.”
Hearing this, Zachary’s face tensed. The boss had emphasized how important this collaboration was.
If Kimberly messed up, he would be affected too.
Thinking about it, Zachary could only turn to Aurelia beside him, hoping that she would stand up and
salvage the situation.
“Aurelia, Aurelia…” Zachary whispered.
Aurelia pretended not to hear him and turned her head to look at Kimberly. She simply waited quietly
for Kimberly to continue speaking.
However, Kimberly merely stood there like a lifeless puppet, a dazed look on her face.
The robot said coldly, “It’s been three minutes. Someone who can’t even remember their own proposal
doesn’t seem to value our company much. Why should I agree to a collaboration with you?”
