Chapter 58: Titania
"And that’s how you sign a contract!"
Back in ViTech headquarters, the employees and their employer gathered in the conference room to congratulate each other on the first signed deal.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this success is due to your efforts to gather much-needed intel about the recruitment targets. I congratulate you before you congratulate me." Vivian announced as she sat at the head of the table, "With each successful day, let’s make a tradition of dining together as one family. Now, eat your fill and grab more from the buffet."
It was a cheerful evening as Vivian was in the best of moods. Not only has she secured the world’s inventor of the light bulb, but she did so with a technology that predated Edison’s by at least 100 years.
But that wasn’t as impressive as it seemed, before Eddison, there were 22 scientists that made the light bulb possible, however, it was Eddison who succeeded in industrializing it in a conventional way.
But electricity and light bulbs weren’t even what could scratch the surface of Vivian’s ambition, there was more she was looking forward to bringing to the world.
Vivian aimed to find the scientists on the verge of making life-changing inventions and give them a nudge forward with her money and influence. Once she gathers enough scientists around her, she will be the most influential person in the city and ViTech will be the top R&D organization in the world.
In this merry atmosphere, Vivian sat alone at the table while the others gathered in groups around the conference room. Jane finally had her chance to speak with Oscar whom she has a massive crush on and Logan was handing plates of food to the old security guards whom he has a history with, even Esmeralda was making friends with some of the female employees.
It was a pleasant atmosphere and one that meant success. Vivian slowly ate the soft lamb steak on her plate with a fork as she savored the juicy taste.
"You’re awfully quiet after having such a speech." Logan approached Vivian and joined her side in an empty seat.
"I am enjoying my time thinking and envisioning."
