My Ex Begged for Me After My Tech Empire Reveal

“The people participating in this assessment will represent their companies, so whether you win the bid and collaborate with us depends entirely on your engineers.” Pausing, he added, “The test is scheduled for one week from now. Anyone who needs to register can sign up with my assistant at any time.”
After Waylon finished the announcement, the exhibition was drawing to a close. A page introducing the AI diagnostic medical system suddenly appeared on the large screen. People surrounded Tracy, their eyes full of admiration for the project developed four years ago. Tracy was also very surprised, and her heart felt sweet listening to the praise.
Just then, she unexpectedly overheard Yvonne say, “AI medical diagnostics has always been my field of study. I heard this was led and developed by a student of Mr. Sand. I truly hope I can also become Mr. Sand’s student. That way, I could have the opportunity to achieve even better results.”
Although Yvonne was speaking to Chandler, her eyes were aimed at Tracy. She wanted to see a hint of panic or self–doubt in Tracy’s eyes. But when Tracy met her gaze, she curled her lips and sent a look of provocation back at her.
Yvonne frowned unhappily. She couldn’t fathom where Tracy got the confidence to give her that look. She’s completely overestimating herself. I’ll just wait and see if Tracy can be so arrogant when it’s time to prove her ability. But then again, someone as incompetent as Tracy wouldn’t possibly take the test. If she actually took the exam, wouldn’t she be shooting herself in the foot and humiliating herself? Thinking this, Yvonne’s mood improved. No matter how arrogant Tracy acted, she was just a paper tiger that would collapse with a poke.
Tracy ignored Yvonne’s gaze. Yvonne was so self–righteous and looked down on her so much. What kind of expression would Yvonne have if she ever found out that the person she admires, Z, is me? I’m quite looking forward to
- it.
A sudden sourness in her stomach sent Tracy to the restroom again. When she emerged, the feeling hadn’t subsided, so she went to the lounge area. Clutching her stomach as she entered, she asked a server for a glass of water, then took out the medicine from her bag and swallowed a few tablets.
Chandler’s voice sounded from above her. “Stomach hurting again?”
Tracy turned to look. She didn’t know when Chandler had entered, but he was standing right behind her. She didn’t answer his question but subconsciously tried to get up and leave. Suddenly, a wave of dizziness hit, and she nearly collapsed. Chandler caught her just in time,
At that moment, Andy walked over and happened to see Tracy falling into Chandler’s arms. He was astonished. She’s truly shameless! Is she resorting to seducing Yvonne’s boyfriend, being a mistress, and ruining their relationship just because she’s professionally inferior? How utterly disgraceful. The Shanks family was a prominent household in Northport. Andy had seen all sorts of people, but he genuinely despised a scheming woman like Tracy.
Thinking this, Andy walked over and spoke sarcastically to Tracy, “Ms. Xander, you can’t even walk properly, yet you’re throwing yourself into someone else’s boyfriend’s arms. Didn’t your parents teach you any shame or propriety?”
He had a good impression of Yvonne. She was pretty, professionally excellent, and seemed to have a good personality. She was neither arrogant nor self–indulgent. No matter what questions they asked, Yvonne

graciously helped them answer. She was easy to get along with. He therefore naturally felt that the relationship between Yvonne and Chandler was not something a person like Tracy could destroy.

Tracy pushed Chandler away. The dizziness, likely a side effect of the antacid medication, kept recurring. Hearing Andy’s sarcasm, she looked up and fixed a cold stare on him. “Which eye of yours saw me throwing myself at him? I have no interest in being a mistress, understood?”
Sometimes I truly don’t understand why so many people side with Yvonne. Yvonne is the one who knowingly acts as a mistress, yet everyone acts blind and thinks I am. And Chandler always acts as if he’s dead. Even when others bully me in front of him, he never explains, leaving me to endure so many condescending looks. I’ve truly had enough over the past few years. I don’t want any involvement with Chandler ever again. This was an accident. It’s my bad luck that someone saw me even for a moment.
Andy didn’t understand Tracy’s meaning. He frowned unhappily and challenged her. “Ms. Xander, what exactly do you mean by that?”
Tracy scoffed and said without reservation, “The literal meaning. If you don’t understand, Mr. Shanks, you can google it, or you can look it up in a dictionary.”
