There was a small conference room inside the conference room. When the door was opened, Theo and Elena were not there, so they must be in the small conference room.
Sure enough, the voices of two people talking came from the small conference room.
"Mr. Grant, the artificial intelligence technology has matured, so we might as well be bold. If we develop this new product first, we’ll definitely reap a lot of rewards."
"No.” Theo's voice was deep and low, containing a hint of displeasure. "Grant Corporation is a company, not your scientific research institute. If the new product development fails, are you going to bear the losses incurred?"
Theo was losing his patience. When he looked up and saw that I was here, his expression softened considerably. He no longer paid any attention to Elena and got up to walk toward me.
Elena looked at me and furrowed her brows. She was clearly upset.
Seeing the weary look on Theo’s face, I held his hand and sighed. "You can't skip your meal just because
you have work to do. The food that Keith ordered has just arrived. Why don't you resume working after you eat?"
Theo pursed his lips and shook off my hand to take m e into his arms. "I would've run out of power if you hadn't come to give me a recharge."
I smiled slightly and looked at the displeased-looking Elena. I lifted both hands to hug him back. "Your power bank is here now. Hurry up and charge up."
Keith was a sensible person and quickly left.
Elena had no intention of leaving and looked at us with a sullen expression. "Mr. Grant, we’re still in the midst of a meeting. Don't you think it's inappropriate for your wife to barge in like this?"
Theo continued to hug me and spared her no glance." It's after working hours now. It's late and you should g o home. We can discuss it again tomorrow."
She was still upset and planned to be unrelenting. "M r. Grant, we should-"
