Chapter 303
Charmine removed her heels upon her return to the Bailey mansion.
Anthony turned to look at her. “If you need any help, just say the word,” said Anthony, voice mesmerizingly husky.
His loving tone was full of concern. Just as Charmine was about to speak, her phone rang.
(Jeremy Richard) stated the caller ID.
She accepted the call and was greeted with Jeremy’s voice as he reported, ‘Vice President Jordan, duet o the increasing criticism, we’ll have to announce your identity to the public. Is that okay with you?”
Charmine smiled. “What else is there to do if I said no?”
“I’ll take that as a yes, Vice President Jordan. I’ll sort it out right away.” Jeremy hung up right after that.
Anthony’s eyes narrowed. Vice President Jordan? So she was the Unify Phone Company’s vice president? Anthony assumed that Charmine had links to the company, but he never expected her to be their vice president! 1
What else was there to this woman he had yet found out?
When she noticed Anthony and Chris’ questioning gazes, Charmine explained nonchalantly, “Before Wendy Morrison’s retirement, Unify searched for someone to take over her post. Coincidently, I helped them secure the patent for the fifth-generation wireless technology, allowing Unify to become the first company in the industry to launch the cellular technology package.”
Charmine spoke with a lackluster, uninterested tone as though the matter was not of importance.
Chris’ eyes twinkled as he gazed at Charmine adoringly. “Mommy is awesome! Mommy is just as awesome as Daddy! Last year, Daddy led his research and development team to develop the first complete fifth-generation wireless smart home system!”
“Is it OBN?” asked Charmine.
Chris nodded enthusiastically. “Yes, yes! How did you know? Do you know how awesome that is? It’s a smart home system! It can automatically detect upcoming wind and rain, shutting windows automatically! It can also make breakfast, close curtains, and clean up dust in the house! Most importantly, if a fire breaks out, the system could automatically extinguish the fire!” Chris beamed with pride. 2
Charmine glanced at Anthony. That was her first time understanding his scope of work after living with him for so long, and it so happened that she was genuinely interested in the smart home system.
“I did give the Smart Home System a try before,” started Charmine, “but many things needed to be done through the phone manually, which I found rather troublesome. There was a time when I was watching the television, and there was no remote control nor the on or off button, so I have to control it using the phone app. Coincidentally, I couldn’t find my phone at that moment, which was annoying. Another major drawback is that since everything can be controlled through the network, hackers can easily control the house once they get a hold of the system, including opening the windows and doors. I wonder if OBN was able to solve these issues?”
“What do you think, Ms. Jordan?” Anthony asked with an unspeakable hint of maturity in his tone.
Charmine frowned. With such a tone, could it be that he had already resolved these issues? Was the domestic smart home system developed so well already?
Seeing that the both of them finally had a common topic to talk about, Chris grinned and silently excused himself from the room. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Anthony walked to the sofa and poured Charmine a glass of water, inviting her to sit. After she was seated. Anthony continued, “OBN had already taken into account the problems you’re concerned about. Last year, we spent the year evolving the system into the sixth-generation artificial intelligent system, no longer relying on controllers or the phone app.
“It relies mainly on the in-built artificial intelligence, turning lights on and off automatically. It could also b e controlled by a person’s voice, recognizing almost a thousand languages, covering various dialects. As for safety and security, well… Even if OBN is compromised, no other system in the world would survive.”
