Chapter Eight
David
âCan you come up with something that doesn't sound cliché?â I fume at Tonia, the head of my publicity team. âWe need the public to grasp the genuine benefits and safety of our innovations. We're not here to dazzle them with catchy phrases; we're here to show them how our work improves their lives.â
Tonia nods, scribbling down notes furiously. "I understand, David. I'll work with the team to refine our messaging and ensure it resonates with the public's concerns and interests."
I exhaled deeply, letting go of some of the tension that'd built up during the meeting with the publicity team. As much as I want to let out the pent-up tension inside of me, I know I can't take it out on Tonia. She's just doing her job, after all. "Thank you, Tonia," I say, trying to soften my tone. "I appreciate your efforts in this. You may leave now."
Tonia offers a small smile, then gathers her papers, and with a small nod, she heads out of my office. As she leaves, I close my eyes and lean back in my chair, raking a hand down my face as frustration starts to build up in my chest again.
The past few days have been a nightmare for my employees and me. The public outrage on Selina Adams' article is more serious than I anticipated and since it's generating so much traffic. DailySpark is fighting back instead of taking it down. I have also had to work closely with my team of scientists, monitoring the progress of our research and development. At least that's something that I love doing.
Ever since becoming CEO, I haven't been able to spend as much time in the lab as I'd like. Working alongside my team of scientists, and delving into the intricacies of our groundbreaking technology, brings me a sense of purpose and fulfillment that I've missed. Despite everything that's going on, I'm glad to have that chance to do what I love; it reminds me of the early days when Harry and I started MicroBot Tech.
But sometimes, like today, I wonder if my hard work and dedication are worth anything. The weight of responsibility as CEO is heavier than I ever imagined, and the constant scrutiny from the public and the media is exhausting. It doesn't matter that I'm doing my best to help better the world, people still blame me and call me names, even those who don't know shit about me.
I'm filthy rich and I could get richer doing the things they accuse me of. But that's not why I do what I do. I believe in the potential of our technology to make a positive impact on the world, solve pressing environmental challenges, and improve lives. Despite the criticism and doubt, I remain committed to that vision. That's what Harry would have wanted too.
I let out a soft sigh, flexing my shoulder muscles as the fatigue of the past few days weighs down on me. My heart skips at the thought of going home later tonight.
