Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 480

Evelina didn’t spare a single glance at Danny’s side of the stage.

As far as she was concerned, anyone who’d been dragged through the mud by drug dealers would never have the guts to stand here again.

She poured every ounce of focus into her own presentation.

Each contestant had just ten minutes to showcase their system, right in the middle of the stadium’s massive soccer field. The organizers had set up all the hardware they’d need; all anyone had to do was plug in their own core system ahead of time.

It wasn’t long before Contestant Number One stepped into the spotlight—a middle-aged man, the same one who’d swapped numbers with Danny earlier.

He unveiled an AI flying system designed to carry people. It sounded flashy and everyone expected a jaw-dropping demo that would wow the entire crowd.

But the system was shaky. The aircraft, with a mannequin strapped in, barely made it in the air before wobbling and crashing straight back to the turf.

The judges barely bothered to hide their disappointment as they posted his low score.

Contestant Number Two didn’t leave much of an impression either. The crowd was restless, anticipation building.

Then it was time for Number Three—Evelina.

The reaction was instant. Fans jumped to their feet, cheering her name, the energy in the stadium reaching a boiling point.

In the VIP section, Juan was practically losing his mind, waving his arms and shouting, “Genius Evelina, go for the crown!”

Under the bright spotlight, Evelina glided to the center of the field and stopped in front of a sleek, silver-white robot.

She bowed to the judges and the crowd.

“Hello, respected judges, honored guests,” she began, her voice calm and clear. “Today, I’m thrilled to introduce the AI system I created. I call it DUO.”

“DUO stands for ‘doing more, helping more.’”

“This will be the perfect partner in your everyday life. It can be your house manager, handling your schedule. Your nanny, caring for your kids and pets. Your chef, cooking world-class meals. Your gardener, keeping your yard picture perfect…”

“In short, it does everything your household staff would do. All you have to do is enjoy your life.”

The introduction lasted barely two minutes, but it hit the audience like a thunderclap.

Eyes all around the stadium lit up with curiosity and longing.

“Are you serious? One robot can do all that?”

“No way. If this is real, I’ll never have to argue with my wife about cooking dinner again!”

While the crowd buzzed and whispered, Evelina turned to the control station and typed quickly on the keyboard.

“DUO, activate.”

At her command, blue lights flickered on in the robot’s eyes, like a soul waking up.

It stretched out its metal limbs, moving so smoothly that it almost looked human.
