?Chapter 302:


    Joziah exited the airport apanied by his assistant, his gaze fixed on Marissa’s fading silhouette, feeling a tinge of mncholy.


    He had brought Rita to Blebert himself, driven by the desire for a meeting with his boss. Yet, hindered by her cousin’s presence, he found himself unable to approach her, resigned to observing from a distance.


    Despite being older and academically aplished, he held his boss in high esteem for her vision and expertise in robotics. Their interactions, marked by her remarkable prowess, always left him enriched.


    To him, she transcended her age; she was his goddess.


    As he reluctantly watched her departure, Aelfric approached, extending a courteous greeting. “Mr. Aston, a pleasure to meet you.”


    With a sigh, Joziah redirected his attention to Aelfric.


    Lаτ??τ ch?ρτ?rs ιn g??l??ov?ls.??????


    Having never interacted with Aelfric before, Joziah was unfamiliar with him.


    However, upon seeing Aelfric’s unique mask, he immediately surmised his identity: Aelfric Warren, the influential figure behind the Warren Group.


    Aelfric wielded significant influence in Blebert, holding the esteemed position of deputy chief instructor at Doomsday Base. Despite theirck of direct contact, Joziah was aware of Aelfric’s reputation, particrly his penchant for masking his face.


    Aelfric’s personalized mask bore an unmistakable emblem, instantly identifying him to others.


    “Delighted to meet you, Mr. Warren,” Joziah greeted him cordially.


    Aelfric smiled, remarking, “I’ve been informed of Mr. Aston’s arrival in Blebert and made a point to be here. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you.”


    Joziah had already deduced the reason for Aelfric’s presence. The household robotics sector boasted promising market potential, attracting numerouspanies eager to enter the field.


    Under Dr. Finley’s leadership, Windsoul Robots had mastered cutting-edge technology, garnering interest from various entities seeking coboration. Even Connor, CEO of the Daniels Group, had reached out to express interest in partnering with Windsoul Robots.


    Aelfric’s presence suggested he might also be seeking a coboration opportunity.


    Dispensing with formalities, Joziah cut to the chase. “Mr. Warren, are you also interested in coborating with Windsoul Robots?”


    Observing Joziah’s direct approach, Aelfric responded frankly, “I’ve heard of Dr. Finley’s endeavors in household robotics. Interestingly, the Warren Group is exploring simr ventures. I’m keen on forging a partnership with Windsoul Robots to achieve mutual benefits.”


    Joziah acknowledged Aelfric’s proposition, stating, “The Warren Group’s financial prowess indeed positions it as a desirable partner. However, we consider various factors beyond mere resources when selecting our coborators. Our aim is to align with the most suitablepany for a sessful partnership.”


    “Wee to the Warren Group, and conduct your investigation, Mr. Aston,” Aelfric said.


    “Indeed, investigation is crucial. However, the final decision rests with Dr. Finley. Given Dr. Finley’s current packed schedule, this matter will need to be postponed,” Joziah exined.


    “Is Dr. Finley currently in Blebert?” Aelfric inquired.


    It would be advantageous for Aelfric to establish directmunication with Dr. Finley. Bypassing Joziah would enhance the likelihood of a sessful coboration.


    “I’m afraid I can’t disclose Dr. Finley’s whereabouts at the moment,” Joziah regretfully replied.


    “That’s understandable. We can be patient,” Aelfric reassured with a smile. “Mr. Aston, you’ve traveled quite a distance. Would you allow me the pleasure of hosting a wee party for you?”


    With a smile, Joziah expressed his gratitude. “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Warren. However, I’m sorry. I have pressing matters to attend to today, so I must decline.”


    Aelfric handed over his business card. “Then let’s have dinner another time. Here’s my contact information. I look forward to staying in touch.”


    Joziah epted the business card graciously and reciprocated, giving his to Aelfric. Following the exchange, Joziah bid farewell politely before departing the airport with his assistant.


    Once in the car, he messaged Marissa, “Boss, both Connor and Aelfric have reached out to me. Which one should we consider for cooperation?”
