Chapter 416: Like A Dream "Who are you to interfere?" snapped Neil, his tone dripping with disdain. "Franco, you'd better develop sself-awareness. You think you can have a say just because your mother is our elder? To be blunt, you're employed by our Daniels family. You're a servant working tirelessly for us. Since when can a servant meddle in their master's business?" "You-" Franco's face reddened. "Neil, you'd better watch your language. I'm telling the truth. Derek doesn't belong in the Robotics Research and Development Department. As the department director, I must be responsible for it.
Even the entry-level employees in our department are elites with high intelligence. They all have at least master's degrees and years of experience in hardware and software development. Do you think Derek can really join such a team? He lacks a relevant educational background, and he doesn't have research or development experience. What can he contribute to our department? I'm certain he'll bring us trouble instead of being an asset." Fresh updates now on gVlFranco's words deeply unsettled Neil, who retorted vehemently, "Why do you doubt Derek's abilities? Does education equate to capability? Many successful individuals in this world lack even a bachelor's degree. Can't you see that? Derek faced adversity from a young age. Without financial support from the Tucker family in Adagend, he had to attend an average vocational school.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYet, he has proven himself capable. Despite lacking a bachelor's or master's degree, Derek has self-taught extensively in private. His skills in research and development rival those of supposed elites.
Derek was kidnapped and trafficked as a child, missing out on excellent educational opportunities.
This prevented him from attending a top university. However, he possesses strong genetic traits from the Daniels family. Shouldn't others acknowledge his potential?" Neil's impassioned defense left Franco speechless. He realized he hadn't fully understood Derek's potential, basing his judgment solely on conventional wisdom.
Neil breathed a sigh of relief as Franco remained silent. After giving Franco a stern look, he turned to Connor and asked in a brotherly tone, "Connor, Derek is your nephew. He had a difficult childhood after being abducted and trafficked. Aren't you willing to support him?" "Neil, you mentioned Derek has the necessary capabilities?" Connor asked with indifference.
"Absolutely!" Neil responded promptly.
Connor nodded and said, "Derek is my nephew, and he has suffered in his early years. As his uncle, it's my duty to help him. Since he's as capable as you say, I'll establish a dedicated research and development department for him. He'll be the director." Upon hearing this, Neil and Derek stared at Connor in disbelief, their eyes widening.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey had expected Connor to assign Derek to a lower-level position in the Robotics Research and Development Department. Instead, they were astonished when Connor proposed creating a department specifically for Derek and appointing him as director.
Derek's heart raced with excitement at the unexpected opportunity.
Neil's brain was blank at that moment.
Connor continued, “Daniels Group is venturing into household robot development, and everything is in the planning stages. Currently, Franco oversees Department One, the sole department. I hereby declare the establishment of a second department. Derek, you will lead its setup."
Derek looked bewildered. "Uncle Connor, do you mean I'll have ful authority over/Department Two? My decisions will be final?” Connor nodded affirmatively. "Yes."
Overwhelmed with excitement, Derek was speechless. He had never m imagined working for a multinational company like Daniels Group, let alone being appointed as a department director overnight. It felt like a dream.
Turning his gaze to Neil, Connor asked casually, "Neil, are you m Neil satisfied with the position I've assigned to Derek?"
