The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1498

So when Zane entered the office, Calvin's expression wasn't exactly pleasant. "Zane, you're late. I have to head to the Dean's office soon. I've already scheduled the time."

Zane detected Mr. Calvin's displeasure in his tone and quickly explained, "Sorry, I got held up by a phone call for two minutes."

Calvin pressed his temples and stood up from his chair, deciding not to dwell on the issue of being late any further. "You mentioned something about an authorization document over the phone. What's the situation with that?"

Zane took out the draft authorization contract he had brought with him and handed it to Calvin while explaining, "Our department is likely to take on a new project, related to artificial life systems again, so we need to have an authorization contract signed by the tech institute."

Upon hearing this, Calvin almost immediately grasped Zane's point. He took the authorization contract, glanced at it briefly, and then placed it on the table.

His focus shifted to the new project Zane mentioned, "Where did this new project come from? Is it with the tech institute again?"

"No," Zane shook his head, not concealing any details. "The DO Group approached me, showing interest in the system my student developed."

"DO Group?" Calvin found the name somewhat familiar but couldn't recall what company it was at the moment.

"It's the Dimon Corporation, known as pioneers of the smart era," Zane briefly introduced.

Calvin's face instantly wore a look of disbelief, "How did such an internet company come to collaborate with your department?"

If it were a collaboration project with the computer science department, he would believe it. Zane's department, though related to computational biology and somewhat linked to computing, was not in the same field at all.
