Lillian let out a small sigh before walking out of the car with her team in tow.
Today was D-day and if she was being honest, she was a little nervous but also very prepared.
She had prepared for every single question the board might ask...so yes, she really was prepared.
OmniTech’s lead lawyer, Mark, walked by her side, completely calm. He had seen Ms Hayes hold her own against a giant like Google, so he wasn’t worried about this meeting going out of their favor.
He was just there to make sure all legal terms were in place and that no one tried to slip in a clause that could corner OmniTech later.
Behind them, the rest of the team including Liam and Lizzy walked slowly as they approached the doors of the Caldwell hospital building.
A guard at the door opened it and they walked in, heading directly towards the reception desk.
The receptionist greeted them with a polite smile. "Good morning, you must be the OmniTech Corp. The board is waiting for you in Conference Room Three on the twelfth."
Lillian nodded, offering a brief, professional smile. "Thank you."
They took the elevator up to the twelfth floor, and as the doors opened with a ding, she immediately noticed the tone shift.
It felt like the air had gotten a bit heavier but she didn’t mind, after all, she was used to this kind of atmosphere.
Infact, she could say that she thrived in atmospheres like these, ones that made her pressure.
After all, the feeling of satisfaction as she came out on top was unmatched.
Slowly, her and her team walked towards
At the center sat Richard Caldwell, the hospital’s chairman, a man known for his old-school views and aversion to risky technological revolutions.’ His piercing gaze were fixed on Lillian the moment she entered.
A more important information about him was the fact that he was Gabriel’s father.... meaning, Aria’s future father in law if everything worked out well.
Oh, the horror he was about to be put through... But Lillian digressed, now wasn’t time for those thoughts.
Right now was time for business.
"Ms. Hayes," he said in a calm tone. "Welcome. We’ve reviewed your proposal and I must say, it’s quite... ambitious."
Lillian smiled faintly. "Ambitious ideas are what built OmniTech, sir. We don’t intend to waste your time with anything less."
"Before we begin," Mr. Caldwell said, folding his hands together, "I’d like to be clear—what you’re proposing, if successful, could change how we operate entirely. But it also carries significant risk. We can’t afford another tech firm promising the moon and leaving us with the bill."
"I understand your concern, Mr. Caldwell." Lillian said, nodding at his words, "but be assured OmniTech Corp does not make empty promises, we have a hundred percent intention of fulfilling every clause in our contract."
"And unlike most tech companies, we’re not experimenting, we already have working prototypes."
That made him pause.
She motioned to her assistant who already had set-up the projector with the assistant of one of the hospital’s board’s assistants.
Lillian’s assistant tapped on the projector’s control and an image of what looked like a smart watch but with bigger screen popped up.
"This is Vitaband," Lillian introduced as she motioned to Lizzy, "if you’d do the honors."
"Thank you," Lizzy said as she stood up,"I am Elizabeth, OmniMed’s lead tech researcher and project supervisor for Vitaband," she continued confidently, giving the board a polite nod before clicking to the next slide.
"Vitaband is what we’d like to call the doctor in a box," she said, "once a patient puts it on, itt learns learns everything about their body.... Their pulse, temperature, hormone levels, oxygen saturation, everything. Within seconds, it builds a complete personal health profile and begins monitoring for abnormalities."
This successfully got the attention of the board as they leaned a bit forward.
"This data is directly compared to a massive set of data in OmniMed’s database to predict the chances of said patient developing any of the diseases in said database."
She paused, allowing the board to absorb her words and she could see exactly impressed they were by the tech, but there was quite a few that seemed unconvinced.
One of those few, Dr. Edison raised a question, "and what if said anomaly is not in your database?"
