They Thought AI Could Replace Me, Then I Took Everything

Chapter 4

Three days later, Tony showed up at the airport at 9:30 am. When he arrived at the designated meeting spot and found it completely empty, his face immediately turned grim.

"What a bunch of good-for-nothings! I let them slack off on ordinary days, but today we're welcoming a VIP, and they still can't get themselves together? Tell them to get here now!"

His chauffeur and assistant quickly sent a message in the group chat to hurry everyone along. Tony checked his watch, then dialed Tracy's number. The phone rang eight times before it was finally picked up.

"Hello?" Tracy's voice was heavy with sleep.

"Tony?" The moment she realized it was Tony, she woke up instantly and glanced at the time. "The AI scheduled delivery time is 11:00 am. You don't need to panic."

She let out a small yawn, "I've been monitoring everything the whole time. There won't be any problems."

Tony's stiff expression relaxed slightly. "Then get here as soon as possible."

The executives responsible for the reception arrived one after another. At 10:25 am, Tracy finally showed up. Holding her phone carefully in front of her, she hurried toward Tony with quick little steps as she saw his impatient expression.

"Tony, look. I confirmed with Origin AI again. The Cullinan reservation is definitely successful. It'll arrive at exactly 11:00. The vehicle model, color, and driver's details are all listed here."

Tony went through the information carefully. After making sure everything was correct, he finally breathed out in relief. A smile returned to his face.

"Not bad. If you land Vincent's deal, I'll send you and the team on a vacation as a reward."

The executives, who had been nervously holding their breath, finally relaxed. They immediately surrounded Tony and Tracy with compliments.

"Mr. Lawson, you're a great judge of character. Tracy, you're incredible!"

Tracy smiled proudly, her eyes filled with confidence, "When there's something good, everyone should benefit. I'm not like certain people who only know how to look after themselves."

But that smile didn't last long. When the clock struck 11:00 am, the road outside remained completely empty. Not a single vehicle appeared.

Tony's voice instantly changed, "Where's the car? Tracy, where is it?"

"I'm checking with AI." Tracy's voice shook as she stared at her phone screen, growing more anxious by the second.

A line of text appeared in the chat window.

We've contacted the rental platform for you. However, due to temporary scheduling issues, the platform currently has insufficient vehicle availability and can't arrange the car. We suggest choosing another time or selecting a different vehicle.

"What do you mean you can't arrange the car?" Tracy screamed while sending a voice message. "Didn't you confirm again and again that the reservation was successful? You broke your promise! I'm going to sue you!"

The AI replied.

Sorry, I may have misunderstood the situation earlier. I'm only an AI assistant and cannot directly contact rental platforms or reserve vehicles on your behalf. You may call the rental number I provided and make the reservation yourself.
