Chapter 1183

Josefina and Jackie strolled into the room where Albert was in the middle of a tense meeting with the tech team. Jackie gave a light tap on the door. When Albert spotted who was peeking in, he frowned slightly. "Jackie, what are you doing here again? I thought I asked you to keep an eye out and stay outside for now."

Jackie chuckled, his smile as bright as a sunny day. "Hey, it's not me crashing the meeting-it's the boss."

Josefina stepped in, and the room's atmosphere shifted from surprise to delight.

"Boss, what brings you here?" Albert asked, clearly taken aback.

Josefina walked in, and Jackie quietly closed the door behind her and stepped out. Albert quickly grabbed a chair, wiped it down twice with a tissue, and gestured for Josefina to sit down.

"Boss, Rhett has teamed up with Idea Tech to help Wilder. Without Rhett, Wilder wouldn't have achieved what he has," Albert explained.

“Well, no matter who Wilder ropes in, the fact that he can bring them on board is a testament to his skills. You all should focus on building up your expertise and skills. With the right abilities, you can tackle anything."

"You're spot on, boss. We get it," Albert nodded, and the rest chimed in with their thoughts.

"Boss, we're not worried. With you leading us, we can handle any challenge."

"You're our rock, boss."

"With you here, I feel secure.”

"They might have Rhett, but we've got you, boss. Rhett's got nothing on you."

Josefina almost blushed at all the praise. “Oh, come on, don't jinx it! What if I end up losing to Rhett?" she laughed, covering her face with playful embarrassment.

Albert chuckled, "Even if you did lose to Rhett, it'd just be sheer luck on his part.” "Exactly, he just got lucky!"

"How many times can luck favor Rhett? In the end, he'll always be in your shadow, boss."

"Sometimes, it's good to toss the runner-up a bone. Our boss here is feeling bashful with all this praise."

Josefina just shook her head with a smile, surrounded by this lively bunch. They really knew how to lay it on thick.

Albert handed Josefina a cup of hot tea. "Boss, maybe ease up on the coffee and try some hot tea."

Josefina was indeed cutting back on caffeine. "Thanks." She took a sip.

"I've got a plan and a project draft for you to check out," Josefina said, pulling out

her phone and shooting an email to everyone in the room.

The team eagerly opened the email, their faces lighting up with excitement. Josefina's projects had a track record of success.

After reading the email, the room buzzed with enthusiasm. Josefina continued, "This is a project I've wanted to tackle for ages once we pull it off, it'll make a real difference. Don't worry about Idea Tech Just focus on your tasks."

“Don't worry, boss. We won't start any trouble, but we're not afraid of it either," Albert assured her.

"Review my proposal, and if you have any questions, just reach out," Josefina instructed.

The proposal was detailed, and the team needed time to digest it.

Later, Josefina found herself in Albert's office, just the two of them.

"Boss, do you think Rhett is helping Wilder because he knows you're here and wants a rematch?" Albert asked, aware of the history between Josefina and Rhett. fo

"If Rhett's aiming for me, he'll find
