Chapter 689 Everything has its Cause and Effect

Book:Mysterious Mrs. Pansy Published:2024-6-4

“Mr. Pansy.”
Early in the morning, Patrick had just arrived at the company when several executives came to see him.
“Mr. Gunter,” Patrick responded, leading him to the conference room and introducing him to the company’s products.
It wasn’t until noon that Mr. Gunter left satisfied, shaking hands with Patrick tightly before leaving, “Mr. Pansy, it was a pleasure doing business with you.”
In the afternoon, someone else came to see Patrick about a partnership and for a while, everyone at Pansy Group was busy accompanying clients as stock prices continued to rise.
Meanwhile on another front, Kevin couldn’t find an appropriate partner after losing Maltz Group as a powerful ally in his circle.
He had been running around recently, constantly trying to attract clients in various places.
He took the information from Duncan Group and went to the restaurants in front of various companies in the morning to win over clients. In the afternoon, he attended business gatherings and met various business people.
For a while, he was running around everywhere, almost knowing everyone in the industry, but still couldn’t find suitable allies for cooperation.
Kevin felt a little tired. The conditions of the Maltz Group were already very good before. They had a strong background and support, as well as Katherine, who was easy to manipulate. It was because of her that the Maltz family listened to him and attacked the Pansy Group.
It was only because the attack failed that the Maltz family became anxious and terminated their cooperation with Duncan Group.
After a busy day, Kevin hurried to the restaurant in front of the company.
These past two days, he and Katherine would come to this restaurant every day for dinner, and Katherine was very cooperative, bringing him something new and exciting every day.
For a while, Kevin was deeply infatuated, and every move of Katherine touched his heart.
The two of them entered the restaurant, and Kevin took the initiative to pull out the chair for Katherine, being very gentlemanly.
Katherine lightly supported her buttocks and sat down.
“Mr. Duncan,” Katherine smiled, seeing the beads of sweat on Kevin’s forehead, “You’re sweating. You’ve been working so hard lately.”
Looking at the gentle Katherine, Kevin felt relieved. “I’ve been busy with work recently, but it’s nothing. It will get better in a while.”
Upon hearing this, Katherine couldn’t help but smile secretly.
It seemed that the cooperation with Katherine was broken, and he couldn’t find clients.
Moreover, she had heard something at home today. Kevin had been trying to attract clients recently, and this matter was widely known in the business circle.
But men have their pride, and Katherine couldn’t expose him face to face. Instead, she comforted him, “Running a company seems difficult, especially a big company like yours. It seems being a CEO isn’t as easy as it looks.”
“Miss Maltz, you flatter me, but it’s just a small company.”
“Mr. Duncan, don’t be modest.”
Katherine smiled, and then a waiter approached.
“You can order. I won’t eat tonight.”
Looking at Katherine’s slender figure, Kevin immediately denied, “How can that be? You’re already very slim. If you lose more weight, you’ll turn into a skeleton.”
He looked at Katherine’s figure. Today, she deliberately wore a tight dress, perfectly outlining her body.
“Miss Maltz, you look beautiful tonight.”
Katherine sweetly smiled. Her next goal was to gain Kevin’s trust and lay the groundwork for obtaining the information she needed.
“Ah…”
Just then, a nearby waiter spilled a drink on Katherine’s dress. Katherine quickly stood up, about to reprimand the waiter, but helplessly noticed that Kevin was still watching.
Seeing the frightened waiter falling down, Katherine could only suppress her discontent and approached to help her up. “Are you okay?”
“I’m so sorry, miss. I’ve stained your clothes. This dress must be expensive. Do you want me to compensate you?” The waiter noticed the stain on Katherine’s dress and had a terrified expression, hurriedly apologizing.
But Katherine had an indifferent expression and smiled, “It’s okay, it’s just a piece of clothing. Are you not hurt?”
Looking at the dignified Katherine, Kevin was momentarily fascinated.
He couldn’t believe that Katherine, a wealthy young lady, could be so composed. He stroked his chin, looking at the woman in front of him, and found it increasingly difficult to understand her.
On the other hand, Patrick discovered Kevin’s recent movements.
He could almost see Kevin’s figure in any place, and no matter where he was, he always had a document in his hand.
This caught Patrick’s attention, and he even sent someone to investigate what Kevin had been up to lately.
“Mr. Pansy,” the assistant inquired after checking, “Those who have interacted with Mr. Duncan all say they were discussing company matters, and the content was roughly the same.”
Patrick nodded. It seemed that Kevin had lost his partners and was trying to attract clients everywhere. This was a good development and a positive sign.
Kevin’s proactive approach to attracting clients indicated that there were some issues in his company recently.
Moreover, there were rumors circulating that the Maltz Group had already split from the Duncan Group. Seeing Kevin’s anxiety, it seemed that the rumors were true.
Patrick lightly curved his lips. It appeared that the plan for the Maltz Group and Duncan Group to attack him had failed. The Maltz Group became anxious and terminated their cooperation with Duncan Group. He didn’t expect things to develop like this!
Thinking about Duncan Group’s arrogance, Patrick felt extremely dissatisfied and determined to teach them a lesson.
Patrick returned to his office and called his assistant. “Go and find someone who looks like a CEO and bring him to me.”
The assistant was puzzled by this statement and asked, “You want me to find someone who ‘looks like’ a CEO in the company? How can I do that?”
Looking at Patrick’s sharply defined face, nobody in the company could compare to his good looks.
“Since there are so many CEOs, can’t I be one?”
Patrick spoke, and the assistant finally understood his meaning. He nodded and went to search within the company.
After some time, the assistant brought a man with a handsome and composed face to Patrick.
“Not bad.”
Patrick nodded and then had the man come before him.
After a conversation, the man suddenly realized the situation and agreed to Patrick’s request. He understood that there was no other solution to this matter and could only continue like this. After all, obtaining what he deserved was the most important!
A slight smile formed on Patrick’s lips. Since Kevin was currently trying to attract clients, he would send a major client his way.
With Kevin’s company in a troubled state recently, if he sent a big client at this time, it would entice Kevin even more.
The assistant scratched his head. Although he couldn’t fully comprehend Patrick’s intentions, he had no choice but to follow his instructions.
