Chapter 441

Liesel's lips curved into an amused smile when she heard Felix's request. Felix was a few years older than Howard, yet here he was, humbling himself with a deferential "Call me Felix" introduction. She questioned where the arrogance he'd shown earlier had gone. Felix's ability to adapt and swallow his pride when necessary was undoubtedly a strength. His success wasn't entirely due to his father's influence. As Liesel mused to herself, she found she'd wandered closer to the group.She didn't step forward to offer a handshake, introduce herself, or interject. Instead, she stood back with her arms crossed and watched the interaction unfold like a spectator at the theater. She wanted to know how Felix intended to discuss the collaboration.Felix was a useful probe, and Liesel wanted to gauge Howard's attitude toward working with their company. Felix launched into his pitch with enthusiasm. His voice was steady and unrelentingHoward, however, remained focused on the small dr

Liesel felt her head spin. Was she being hit on by a drone?Meanwhile, Felix, whose mouth was as dry as sand from all his talking, stood frozen. "What the hell?" he thought. "Wasn't Howard supposed to be the type who's completely uninterested in romance? Or was it just that no one before was hot enough to catch his attention? Does it just boil down to Liesel's looks?"He stole a glance at Liesel with a bitter taste rising in his mouth. Given Howard's power and status, Felix could only swallow his frustration.Felix pulled out his business card with a smile. "Mr. Durham, how do you find our terms? If there's anything you're not happy with, feel free to let us know. Here's my card; you can contact me anytime to discuss further."After a moment of deliberation, Felix decided it was time to retreat. Howard was too busy messing around with his drone, using it to entertain himself at Liesel's expense. He wasn't listening to a word he was saying."Let's go. I'll drive you," Felix said to

Liesel turned around with a calm expression. "Mr. Durham, is there something you wanted to discuss?" Felix shot her a warning look, which she ignored entirely. Taking a few steps forward, Liesel continued in a detached tone, "Go ahead. We'll do our best to meet your requests." Her words promised cooperation, but her delivery couldn't have been icier. Felix felt his stomach tighten. He quickly plastered on a smile. "Yes, yes! We'd be happy to help with anything you need." "I've heard that you have quite the expertise in automotive engineering." Howard was unfazed by Liesel's frosty demeanor. "As it happens, I've done some upgrades on the prototypes your company developed. Care to take one for a spin, Ms. Sharp?" Howard was baiting Liesel. He was letting her know that he'd been keeping tabs on her. It raised the question of how Howard had gotten access to Liesel's car data. It was no mystery. The vehicles involved in the accident, including Elijah's car, had all been

Felix stood to the side, gushing with praise for Howard's so-called "brilliance." But no one paid him any attention. Not even a glance. His voice had become nothing more than background noise."Liesel, you're wasting your intelligence," Howard said. His tone was biting as he tapped his temple. "You've let yourself get tainted by the stink of money. You were born to be someone like me. We should be the same."Liesel's expression was unchanged. "Every breakthrough you make needs funding. You can't stand people chasing profit, but you still need to bleed them for investments. What's your take on that, Mr. Durham?"Howard chuckled as he held her gaze. "You haven't passed my test yet. I'm not interested in having this conversation with you. So, are you going to help me test my new car?"Felix, who had been rambling for the better part of five minutes, froze as the words finally sank in. Howard hadn't listened to a single thing he'd said. Still, Felix forced a strained smile and let out

The two cars sped up on the track. They were like arrows released from a bow. If their driving skills didn't match the speed, an accident was almost inevitable."They're helping me test the performance of the smart driving system. Mr. Ford, don't you think it's interesting?" Howard said with a grin. He was aware of the past between Jacob and Liesel, and his words only seemed like provocation."You let Liesel test your smart driving system? Are you out of your mind?" Jacob snapped. "Tell her to stop. I'll take over."Howard raised an eyebrow at Jacob's command. His eyes darkened with a cold, assessing gaze. He smirked. "Mr. Ford, do you think you're qualified?"As the two cars roared past them, a gust of wind followed in their wake."Howard, it's too fast! Make her stop. I'll drive!" Jacob's brow furrowed deeply as he stared at the cars with concern.Howard laughed lightly. His amusement was tinged with sarcasm. "Mr. Ford, this is a bet for Hardin Group. I doubt the Ford family ha

Liesel wasn't afraid because she understood the nature of intelligent systems. Since Howard had been someone Heather once relied on, his intellect was undoubtedly comparable to Heather's. If this system had been developed by Howard, there was little chance of it failing catastrophically.More importantly, Liesel knew the wall was a protective barrier. It was soft, designed specifically for testing, and wouldn't result in a real crash. This race was simply a test of nerves.Felix, on the other hand, wasn't so confident. He was gambling on Howard's decision-making abilities and on his own reaction time.Now, everything hinged on the final moments.The distance between the car and the wall closed rapidly, the prospect of dying looming closer with each passing second. "Ask them to brake! They're going to crash!" Jacob's voice was hoarse.Fear gripped his throat and twisted his heart, leaving him in a state of panic. He knew all too well the consequences of a car crash. Even though

A group of men in black suits clashed with a group of people in white lab coats. They pulled and shoved, turning the scene into chaos. "Liesel! I'm ordering you to brake immediately! Liesel, do you hear me?" Jacob's voice was hoarse from shouting. "Shut up." Liesel's calm voice came through Howard's walkie-talkie. Jacob froze. Howard couldn't hold back a laugh. That was Liesel—Heather's daughter in every way. She was the most fascinating woman he had ever met. Felix's car finally screeched to a halt, but Liesel's car charged straight toward the wall without hesitation. The executives from several companies who had come over to watch all turned their heads away. They didn't dare to continue watching.Just then, a prolonged beeping sounded from Liesel's car. She felt the steering wheel slip from her control as the intelligent system took over. Sixteen feet from the wall, the car suddenly drifted, veering sharply at the last moment.The tires screeched against the ground.

Liesel smirked as she shook Felix's hand. "Mr. Donner, I've always considered you a friend."Julian, a shrewd figure in the Hardin Group, wasn't one of the old-fashioned holdouts Liesel aimed to remove from the company. Having one more ally was always better than making another enemy.Felix felt his earlier unease dissipating completely. Not far away, Jacob stood stiffly, suppressing his anger as he watched the exchange. Howard began to applaud lightly, beaming. His gaze lingered on Liesel's beautiful face. When Liesel moved closer, Jacob finally lost control of his composure. He strode forward and grabbed her wrist firmly. When Liesel moved closer, Jacob finally lost control of his composure. He strode forward and grabbed her wrist firmly. "Liesel, you've completely lost it!" he hissed. His expression darkened. Liesel remained calm and pulled her wrist free. Without so much as a glance at Jacob, she walked past him, heading straight for Howard. "What do you think, Ho

While Hardin Group's representatives kept silent, other companies couldn't hide their envy. Liesel's social media post about Howard's groundbreaking experiments had drawn significant attention. Each project was a potential goldmine, and no one wanted to miss out on such a lucrative opportunity.Belinda arrived late with her team from Turner Group, only to be greeted by the sight of a finalized agreement. Frustration swelled in her chest. "So, Mr. Durham, have you already decided to partner with Hardin Group?"It seems you had reached an agreement with Liesel in advance. If that's the case, why go through the charade of announcing an open search for collaborators? Did you make us come all this way just for show?"As the Turner family heiress, Belinda was not one to lose composure, even when the man she admired had chosen someone else. After regrouping, she arrived with Turner Group's research team to demonstrate their sincerity and competitiveness to Howard. Howard's smile wa

Howard smirked as his hand deftly ruffled Liesel's hair, irritating her. She took two steps back, distancing herself from him. "Tsk," he uttered. He reached out his hand casually, and his assistant handed him a remote control. He began fiddling with the small drone as he strolled.Liesel glanced at him, quickly realizing there was more to the situation than met the eye. It was clear that Howard was no ordinary person.She noticed the difference but chose not to comment. When she looked up, her eyes met Howard's. He raised an eyebrow.Those who had the same level of intelligence would understand each other perfectly with just a glance."With all that's going on, you still claim to be innocent?" Belinda's frustration was reaching its boiling point.She pointed first at Jacob, then at Howard, and finally, her sharp gaze landed on Felix."Howard's been flirting with you, Jacob came all the way here for you, and now there's this man! This man has been sticking close to you with a co
