Chapter 411
The senior manager regretted it very much. "I admit that I took our opponent lightly. But most
importantly, Ryan is so good at ying tricks. I''m afraid that he has long sincee up with the
idea of renting his factories!"
Ryan did have a n, but he has been confronting Roxxon head-on for a month before closing his
factories. No one would doubt that he did so out of desperation!
My colleagues and I were of the same mind, so we didn''tunch an investigation immediately, which
left Ryan a chance to fight back! Now they are earning money by making use of Roxxon''s demands
while Roxxon was losing money!"
A sullen light flickered in Patrick as he said in a creepily calm voice. "Are you saying that Ryan has
longe up with the idea of renting factories?"
The manager licked his dry lips and said, "Yes! When I noticed that something was amiss two days
ago, I asked the owners of those factories diplomatically when they started such a partnership with
Ryan.
And their answers were too shocking!" "When?" Patrick asked coldly.
"They said the second day after the half-off sale of our stores, Ryan approached them voluntarily
and told them his analysis of the situation. After a few days of observation, they all came to realize
that it was a good opportunity to take advantage of Roxxon and deiced to join hands with Ryan
immediately I"

After a few seconds'' silence, Patrick spat out, "There''s a mole in ourpany!"
The manager''s heart was in his throat. "Mr. Hopper, who do you think it could be?"
Patrick fixed his fierce gaze at the manager.
"Mr. Hopper, I can''t be the mole! I am fully responsible for this task. If there is a single mistake,
I would be the first to be suspected and punished, as you are doing now, wouldn''t I? In that case,
how dare I betray ourpany and cause you and Roxxon such a great loss!"
His words made sense. It was just that Patrick was a little disappointed with him.
For Ryan''s being able to rise again, on the one hand, it was very likely that someone had warned
him in advance. On the other hand, it showed that Roxxon hadn''t done enough homework on their
rival!
It wasn''t just his managers. The horrifying part was that Patrick himself had believed that Ryan and
his Dream had run out of their luck. In the end, he
almost had taken all of Ryan''s tricks lightly!
But at this time, Patrick had no time toin about Ryan or to me himself. He ordered
quickly, "Listen up, tell all the managers of our department stores to put all the drinks back on price.
The sale is over from now on!"
"Got it!" Since Ryan had found another way out for his factories, there was no need for Roxxon to
be in a price war anymore.
"After that, have our PR Department contact all the factories immediately and return as many goods
in warehouses as possible. If they ask why, just tell them that Roxxon is oversupplied," Patrick
continued.
The senior manager asked, "What if they refuse us?"
Patrick curled his lips, "They won''t. We''ve sold enough in thest month and a half for them to
respect our decision."
Although the senior manager had a dark look on his face, he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly.
Watching Roxxon keep losing money in drinks, as employees who had been working in Roxxon for
a long time, they were so anxious these days.
Now that Patrick had made trouble, he finally started to fix it. To be honest, it was the first time the
manager had been so happy at their failure!
Before he left, the senior manager seemed to remember something and said, "Mr. Hopper, I don''t
know if I should tell you this."
"At this point, what else can''t you say?" Patrick said solemnly.
The manager seemed to be searching his memories. "Regarding the purchasing of drinks, I once
discussed it with my coworker in the kitchen. That was the only time we talked about it in public.
And two female employees happened to walk into the kitchen then. Judging from their expressions,
I think they must have heard our conversation."
Patrick''s face turned icy. "Who are they?"
The manager replied, "One is your secretary. And the other... I remember it''s Amelia Ramsay from
the sales department."
At that, Patrick felt as if thousands of arrows had pierced through his heart!
At the sales department.
After hanging up the phone, Doris informed Amelia, "Amelia, Mr. Patrick''s secretary just called and
asked you to go to the president''s office."
"Okay, right away."
When Amelia was about to rise from the chair, her cell phone on the table rang suddenly. Seeing it
was Uncle Quartley, she hurried to a corner and put it
through.
"Hello, Uncle Quartley?"
Ryanughed brightly. "Amelia, I''m calling to thank you!"
"Thank me?" Amelia soon realized what he was referring to. "Uncle Quartley, you mean the one I
reminded you to look into Yeats Road?"
"That''s right, Amelia. Thanks to your warning, I had a narrow escape this time. After receiving your
call, I had my people look into the two ces you reminded me of. They did find something wrong."
"Uncle Quartley, how are you doing now? I heard from my associates that you''ve stopped selling
the Dream and shut down your factories?"
"Given our rtionship, I''m telling you the truth. To outsiders, I did close my factories, but in fact, I
was doing business with some drink producers!"
"What?" Amelia didn''t expect Ryan toe up with such an idea. Wasn''t he always too proud to
associate himself with hispetitors?
"Amelia, why do you be silent all of a sudden?" Ryan''s voice came from the phone.
Amelia smoothed it over. "Nothing, Uncle Quartley. I was just thinking that your idea is so brilliant. If
I were you, I would never have thought of it!"
Ryan chuckled. "Anyway, thank you very much. Amelia, how about I buy you dinner sometime?"
"Uncle Quartley, I eat a lot. You''ll be poor if you buy me dinner. I''ll pass..."
Amelia couldn''t agree to dinner with Ryan. She had warned him because she got no other choice. If
Patrick found out that she was still in touch with Ryan, it would be a disaster.
In the face of Amelia''s indirect decline, Ryan could onlyugh it off. "Amelia, I''m curious. Why did
you help me? You''re an employee of Roxxon and Patrick''s subordinate, aren''t you?"
Amelia pursed her lips and said, "Since you were taken to the hospital because Mr. Hopper had
provoked you, I''ve always had a feeling that I owed you and need to make it up to you somehow."
