"Is it... Mr. Neo?"
When Vera heard Lynch mention that Neo was behind this, she was momentarily dazed.
For a long time in the past, as a semi-housewife, she always revolved around Gap's life. During that time, Gap often talked about interesting things in the Ristone Group and some anecdotes between President Neo and the board.
These things could be considered a part of corporate culture, as people liked to talk about the higher-ups as if their opinions could be heard and validated by them.
In Vera's mind, Neo was more than just a simple symbol. This name represented the ultimate aspiration that Gap had been striving for over an extended period.
It was an aspiration, not a goal. Gap knew he couldn't achieve it, but that didn't stop him from striving towards it.
Lynch sat by the side; the television was on, but no sound came out.
The people inside continued their performance unhurriedly, like a silent film.
He asked, somewhat curiously, "Do you know Neo?"
