Ice-Cold Ceo Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) Chapter 154

Chapter 154 

“Grandpa has always been this biased, hasn’t he?” Leo said with a gloomy face, “But Mom, don’t worry, I originally wanted to start over. The company’s framework is still there. I will build my own company soon.” 

“Leo, I’m counting on you,” Penelope said. 

“You can do it, honey,” Isabella said softly. 

Leo took a deep breath and looked at himself, full of strength again. 

He didn’t need to rely on Ben. 

He could also rise by himself. 

At night… 

In the study, Leo worked hard to come up with a plan. 

Isabella came in with a bowl of chicken soup. 

“Isabella, why are you here?” Leo looked at her with distress. “You’re pregnant. Don’t let yourself get too tired.” 

Isabella said softly, “You’re so tired because you want to give me and our baby a good future. It’s my duty to help you do something small.” 

Leo was even more touched. 

“Come, have some.” Isabella gently fed him a few mouthfuls. 

As he drank the soup, he became mischievous and subconsciously placed his hands on 

her waist. 

A trace of disgust flashed across Isabella’s eyes, but she suppressed it when she thought 

of what she had to do. 

She said gently, “Leo, are you troubled by the company’s affairs?” 

“Troubled? Not really.” Leo looked confident. “I just need to start over.”

Isabella asked with a smile, “Do you still plan to do your previous business?”  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Leo thought for a moment and said, “Although many people have terminated their contracts with us, our factory is still there, and we still have a lot of orders on hand. As long as we can hand over this batch of orders smoothly as usual, our credit can be rebuilt. We won’t have to worry about new orders in the future.” 

He wanted to continue down the same path. 

But Isabella didn’t agree with that. 

Her eyes flickered and she asked softly, “Leo, how much profit does this company make a year?” 

Leo had really read the report. He said, “The annual income is between four to five million dollars.” 

“So little?” As Isabella spoke, she suddenly felt that she had made a slip of the tongue and couldn’t help covering her mouth. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that.” 

Leo shook his head and said, “It’s okay. The profit made by manufacturers is relatively low. After all, manufacturing is a basic industry, and it’s easily replaceable.” 

“That’s true.” Isabella sighed. “No matter how well we develop this company, it won’t become the second Storm Group in the end.” 

“Alas.” Leo sighed. “For the time being, there’s no better way.” 

Isabella’s eyes flickered, and she took the opportunity to put forward her suggestion. “I think we should develop our own technology like the Storm Group does! How can the Storm Group be so strong? It’s because they have monopolized almost half of the electronic industry’s technology patents. If we could do that too, we wouldn’t have to worry about making money!”

“I also know that patents are the most profitable, but these technical patents don’t fall from the sky,” Leo said. 

Isabella chuckled. 

“What are you laughing at?” Leo looked at her in confusion. 

Chapter 154 

Isabella looked around and showed a mysterious smile. “What if I told you that I know a big secret of the Storm Group? As long as we have this secret, we can get countless patents.” 

Leo’s eyes lit up. “What secret?” 

Isabella said slowly, “In the Storm Group, there is a god–level figure with the code name ‘King‘. 80% of the patents held by the Storm Group were created by this person.” 

“I know that too. But until now, no one knows who that person is,” Leo said. 

Isabella smiled. Of course they didn’t know King’s identity. In her previous life, the identity of King wasn’t announced even at the time of her death. 

However, Isabella had already guessed the identity of this person. 

Moreover, she felt that her guess was more than 90% likely to be true! 

“You know?” Leo looked at Isabella and his eyes lit up. 

It reminded Isabella of the app that earned a huge sum of money for Susan in her previous 

life. 

The idea of this app was very simple. It was just a simple love game. 

The reason why this app became popular was that in addition to the wonderful content of the game, the male lead who could be conquered in the game was very special. Most importantly, the NPCs in the game showed a very mature level of artificial intelligence. 

After the app was released for a period of time, it caused a huge controversy on the 

Internet. 

Then Storm Group came out to explain that they had indeed developed the first generation of artificial intelligence. 

As for the Al researchers, they were the scientists, Susan, and a few other young researchers. 

Isabella still remembered the list of the developers clearly. 

Chapter 154 

She felt that this artificial intelligence was mainly developed by King. Susan was probably just taking credit for the work other people did. 

But King had such amazing achievements, but he still chose to hide his real name. 

Isabella felt that it didn’t make sense. 

He was the father of artificial intelligence! 

Who wouldn’t want such a reputation? Would they be willing to live behind a code name 

forever? 

Therefore, she felt that it was very likely that Ben didn’t want to let King’s identity be known because he wanted all the spotlight to be on Susan. That was why he deliberately suppressed King. 

Now that Susan had entered the company, it was very likely that Ben had already started suppressing King again. 

King had to be dissatisfied with the Storm Group now. 

If she wanted to poach someone, she should be able to do it accurately. 

Now, the last question was, who on earth was King? 

In her previous life, countless netizens had guessed the answer to this question. 

Isabella had also thought about it many times. 

In the end, she chose a candidate. 

She thought that King was the other person on the list named Marc Roy! 

Marc was a young programmer and one of the people who participated in the research and development of artificial intelligence projects. 

However, when the reputation of Susan as the “mother of artificial intelligence” was spread out, Marc stood up and sourly said that a woman like Susan had no real ability at all. The reason 

why the project could succeed was all because of his idea. 

Later, Marc was ridiculed on the Internet, and soon his name was even removed from the 

list. 

But Isabella felt that what Marc said was very likely to be the truth. 

It was very likely that he was King. In order to suppress him, Ben didn’t announce that he was King to the public. However, Ben was afraid that Marc would make a scene, so Ben wrote his real name at the bottom of the list. 

There was another piece of evidence that could prove Marc was King. 

After Marc was fired, the code name “King” never appeared again. 

All in all, Isabella had reason to believe that Marc was the one who had developed artificial intelligence. 

Susan was just fishing for fame. 

Right now, Marc hadn’t entered the headquarters of the Storm Group yet. He was just working as a supervisor in one of its subsidiaries. 

The Storm Group must have done this to hide King’s true identity. 

The image of such a person appeared in Isabella’s mind. 

He was born proud and talented, but Ben was afraid of what he could achieve with his abilities, so he had been suppressed in a subsidiary instead of working at headquarters. 

He kept developing products, but Ben still tried his best to suppress him, putting all his patents under the company’s name and refusing to even announce his real name. 

Marc was definitely a nerd who was devoted to his research. 

Therefore, even though Ben had treated him like this, he had endured it for many years. 

Knowing that Susan had stolen his research results, he stood up in anger. But as a researcher, how could he compete with her wealthy background? 

He was telling the truth, but under the control of the capitalists, he became the object of ridicule on the Internet. 

It was really sad and lamentable. 

Chapter 154 

But in this way, it would be easier to rope him in. 

Isabella said with a mysterious look, “King’s real name is Marc Roy.” 

“Marc Roy? Who’s that?” Leo was stunned for a moment and searched for it on the Internet 

Then, he found that Marc was just a programmer of a subsidiary. 

He couldn’t help but frown. “He’s not very famous.” 

“That’s just the Storm Group’s cover–up,” Isabella said confidently. “Everyone knows that the Storm Group has three big shots, and two of them have made their name public. I don’t know how many companies are secretly waving banknotes, trying to poach them. But the remaining one, King, is the most outstanding and an all–rounder, and no one has come to poach him. Why? Because information on him is well hidden. No one knows who he is! How can we poach him when we don’t even know who he is? Tell me, who would have thought that King of the Storm Group is actually hiding in a subsidiary?” 

Leo was stunned. “That makes sense.” 

He couldn’t help glancing at Isabella. “But how did you find all that out?” 

Isabella smiled mysteriously and said, “I have my own ways. Leo, I am your wife, and we are in the same boat now. How can I harm you? If you believe me, go to that subsidiary immediately and poach Marc at a huge price! He is very likely to be working on an artificial intelligence project now. With his talent, he will definitely succeed. Think about it, if we have an artificial intelligence patent, how much money can we make?” 

Artificial intelligence… 

Leo’s eyes lit up at the thought. 

If he could get this patent, he would not only get wealth but also reputation and prestige.. 

His company would have a meteoric rise and become the second Storm Group. 

Who would say that he was not as good as Ben anymore? 

“Are you sure?” Leo asked. 

Chapter 154 

“Leo, I’m the only one in the world who knows about this, and I’ve only told you about it. But I can’t guarantee that more people will guess King’s identity as time goes by. It’s up to you whether you believe me or not to poach Marc.” 

If it weren’t for the fact that she really didn’t have money on hand, Isabella wouldn’t have told Leo such a big secret. 

However, telling him had its own benefits too. 

If she went to poach someone, who knew how Ben would deal with her? 

But if it was Leo, Ben would definitely be restrained and unable to carry out his plan because of their blood relationship. 

Thinking of this, Isabella reminded him again, “Ben will definitely stop you if you try to poach Marc. If he goes too far, you can complain tearfully to Charlie with mom. After all, he is your grandfather. He will protect you.” 

Leo blinked. “I see. Let me think about it again.” 

“Take your time to think about it. Remember to eat the chicken soup,” Isabella said softly and then left. 

She knew that Leo would definitely take action. 

Because he really wanted to defeat Ben. 

This was his only chance to turn the tables, and it was her only chance as well.
