CHAPTER 106: CHAPTER 106: NOTHING YOU CAN DO

When July Quinn returned to the conference room after finishing in the restroom, many project participants had already arrived.

Yasmin Zane was there too.

She seemed busy though, her fingers flying rapidly over the keyboard.

Soon, Kyle Keaton and Miles Jacobs also arrived, marking the official start of today’s meeting.

Several project team leaders began reporting on work progress over the past few days.

After Miles Jacobs listened to the progress, he then sought Kyle Keaton’s opinion.

After receiving a nod of approval from Kyle Keaton, he announced, "Great, the project’s progress over these days has been quite good. I hope everyone maintains this pace in the future. Now let’s start assessing our new project members."

"July Quinn, you’re up first." The sponsor’s word is, of course, prioritized.

July Quinn nodded, gracefully picked up her laptop, stood in front of the big screen, connected to the projector, and prepared to operate the PowerPoint presentation.

But then, she found that her PowerPoint was not in the original document.

She searched through several other documents but found no trace of it.

Since she took quite a long time to prepare, some higher management were a bit displeased.

Especially a certain supervisor, Hughes.

"Miss Quinn, if you’re not ready, just say so, and don’t waste everyone’s time."

Miles Jacobs glanced at Supervisor Hughes and then looked at July Quinn, inquiring with concern, "What’s wrong?"

"I can’t find the PowerPoint I made."

July Quinn answered truthfully.

"Is it that you can’t find it, or you never made it?"

Supervisor Hughes threw a sarcastic remark from below, but after receiving a cold warning glance from Miles Jacobs, he finally quieted down.

Miles Jacobs looked at Kyle Keaton, seeing the latter focused on July Quinn, his brow furrowed slightly.

He immediately came to a solution, "Then let Yasmin Zane report first, and you can keep looking."

"Yes." July Quinn hugged her laptop and returned to her seat to continue searching for her file on the laptop.

Back at her seat, July Quinn was still searching for her PowerPoint document.

Until Yasmin Zane projected her PowerPoint onto the large screen, July suddenly stopped.

After July Quinn couldn’t find her document, Kyle Keaton, though he didn’t step forward to help, never took his eyes off her.

Until he saw that pair of always charming, alluring eyes suddenly turn cold...

At this moment, her features were still as picturesque as ever, but the beauty now held a clear aggressiveness, even Kyle Keaton could feel the overwhelming pressure emanating from her.

Before he could think about how a girl just over twenty years old like July Quinn could have such a powerful aura, he heard Yasmin Zane start presenting her PowerPoint on stage.

The content was so familiar that Kyle Keaton was surprised. When he looked up, he saw the content on the big screen that Yasmin Zane was projecting.

Although the background images were changed, and the narrative approach had shifted, the overall content was almost identical to what July Quinn had done previously!

At this moment, he understood why July Quinn’s eyes suddenly became so aggressive.

He wanted to stop Yasmin Zane from speaking further, but saw that July Quinn remained completely still.

Hesitating for a moment, Kyle Keaton also decided to keep quiet.

He was actually interested to see how July Quinn would handle this crisis today!

On the other hand, the more Yasmin Zane expounded on the content, the more pleased she became.

"Caelan Library is located along the coastal line, using geo-culture and city spirit as its design concept..."

Indeed, just when the project leaders were reporting on project progress earlier, Yasmin Zane had fully absorbed the content from July Quinn’s PowerPoint, directly replacing the background images and using it as her own.

As she expected, the content of July Quinn’s PowerPoint was considerably more remarkable than hers.

Sure enough, after her presentation ended, almost everyone in the conference room applauded.

"Not bad, Yasmin Zane’s understanding of the Caelan Sea project is quite unique. Some constructive content we never even thought about before."

"As expected of a dual-degree master’s holder, she immediately boiled down all the issues succinctly."

Amidst everyone’s praise, Yasmin Zane smiled triumphantly at July Quinn.

As if to say, "Look, even if the content is yours, I can use it, and my presentation is even more brilliant than yours. But you have no proof that I stole yours, so there’s nothing you can do about me!"
