"When I toured Solara Energy a couple of days ago," Mrs. Naylor explained, "Gia mentioned they were looking for a reliable chip manufacturing partner. I immediately thought of Centribo. So, I brought her straight here to introduce you two. I'm hoping we can set up a collaboration."
Noreen was genuinely shocked.
She never expected Mrs. Naylor to be the one offering her a lifeline.
Deeply grateful, she extended every courtesy to Gia.
"I'll let you two discuss the specifics. I'm just an outsider when it comes to the technical details," Mrs. Naylor said.
Barely having warmed her seat, she stood up and took her leave.
Noreen had Sophia walk Mrs. Naylor out.
She then turned her attention to Gia.
Gia leaned back casually on the sofa, her gaze raking over Noreen.
A few seconds later, a smirk tugged at her stunning features.
"Everyone says I look exactly like you. Personally, I think I'm much prettier."
The tone of her voice was immediately off-putting.
If Noreen wasn't absolutely certain they had never met before, she would have assumed Gia was actively trying to start a fight.
Noreen didn't react. "Centribo's chip technology has always been an industry leader. A partnership would certainly provide robust support for Solara Energy's expansion. What specific computing power requirements does your company need?"
"Oh, we have requirements, naturally."
Gia pulled a folder from her designer bag and tossed it onto the coffee table.
Noreen quickly skimmed the documents.
