Roberts Group's workforce was huge. Fortunately, we had the private CEO elevator at our disposal.
Hendrix had a business meeting to attend. I had nothing to do, so I could only wander around in his office.
As soon as I found a magazine and took my seat, someone knocked on the door. I said, "Please come in!"
A young woman in her twenties walked in. She was pretty and had a slender body - a definite sight for sore eyes.
When the woman saw me, she was slightly stunned. She greeted softly, "Hello, I'm looking for Mr. Roberts."
I smiled and said, "He's in the conference room. It'll take him a while before he finishes."
She nodded, her gaze fixed on me as she sized me up. "Okay, thank you!"
Then, she left the room.
I looked at the magazine and could not help but smile. Hendrix's charm really did a number to women.
Evan walked in with some documents in hand.
When he saw that I was reading a magazine, he said, "Madam, I'll get you a glass of juice."
I smiled faintly, thanking him.
I watched as he poured the juice into a glass for me. I closed the magazine, looked at him and asked, "Does Roberts Group also has plans on expanding into Artificial Intelligence?"
"Yes, it is trending internationally. Roberts Group has both the engineering expertise and technology now, and its influence is growing stronger. However, we still don't know how long it's going to take. Things that seemed irreplaceable could change in an instance, which is why Roberts Groups had some investments in Artificial Intelligence, just in case."
I nodded. "Who's the person in charge of this? I know a thing or two about the technology because of my previous work at the Granger Group handling Sherman from Fantasia Company."
Evan placed the juice in front of me. "A brilliant student who just returned from abroad. She has a deep understanding of Al, and she's quite the professional in this field."
I held my glass of water and took a small sip. "This top student sounds relatively young. She has such a bright future ahead of her."
Evan nodded and said, "Yes, she's only twenty five, and she's got great skills and a great attitude. Mr. Roberts personally headhunted her and had liaised with her a couple of times. She is decisive and capable, a real talent."
For Evan to be praising her, she must be something.
"Impressive. What's her name?" I asked.
