At thepany, Katherine was dressed in a chic urban outfit with her hair styled in big curls. Her ck suit made her look mature and sophisticated.


    Today, she had on bright red lipstick and a slight smile on her lips, making her look even more charming.


    Her graceful figure caught the attention of many high-level managers present. Just as Katherine was holding some files and about to make copies, several high-level managers stopped her.


    “Miss Maltz,” they said.


    Some of these high-level managers were around Patrick’s age but looked very different from him in appearance. Katherine sneered at them but didn’t show itpletely since she was still at work.


    “Mr. Fox, Mr. Steele, is there something you need?”


    Katherine smiled sweetly and further captured the hearts of these men.


    “We just think that you standing here casually can catch my attention,” Kayden Fox said while sniffing around Katherine. “Hmm, even the air around you smells so good.”


    Katherine chuckled while covering her nose. She felt disgusted by Kayden’s oily words deep down inside.


    “Miss Maltz, you should smile more often; this one smile makes me fall head over heels for you,” Phillip Steele exaggeratedly said while clutching his chest as if he were about to faint away any moment now.


    “You two are really joking around; you’re making me blush,” Katherine replied with a shyugh that showed no teeth. Thisdylike demeanor left an impression on both men’s minds forevermore.


    “Oh hey! What are you guys doing? Talking to Miss Maltz behind my back?” At that moment, General Manager Chaim Wilkins walked out from beside them and added, “Don’t mind them too much, Miss Maltz. They’re just interested in your looks.”


    “It’s okay.”


    Katherine’s graceful and elegant demeanor further deepened the good impression in the minds of several high-level executives.


    “Well, you portrayed yourself so well in front of Miss Maltz. I wonder who was admiring her beautyst night,” one executive said.


    The two executives exposed Chaim without any suspense, and he awkwardly scratched his head. “Men are visual creatures, and besides, Miss Maltz looks so beautiful. Her every move has captured my heart.”Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Meanwhile, many female employees pretended to be diligently working while stealing nces at Katherine and the others.


    Although they felt jealous, Katherine’s wealthy background and attractive appearance made it irresistible for anyone not to take a few extra nces.


    On the surface, Katherine could only pretend to be happy. After all, these people were not her goal when she joined thepany.


    Katherine’s gentleness enchanted the high-level executives even more. After Katherine left with the documents, the executives kept staring at her figure for a long time before finally leaving.


    The next day, as soon as Katherine arrived at thepany, she noticed arge bouquet of red roses ced on her desk.


    She picked up the flowers and read the card attached to them, which read, “Dear Miss Maltz, this is my affection for you – Mr. Peg.”


    She was momentarily stunned, holding the red roses, and looked around. The surrounding employees cast envious nces at her.


    “Oh, it seems another executive has taken a liking to Katherine.”


    A few employees gossiped, and their words reached Katherine’s ears.


    She shook her head lightly and ced the flowers aside before starting her work for the day.


    During lunchtime, when everyone was preparing to go for a meal, they coincidentally ran into Chaim.


    Chaim held a ne in his hand. “Miss Maltz, I think this ne perfectly matches your temperament. I thought of buying it and giving it to you.”


    Katherine pretended to be surprised and kept expressing her gratitude.


    “It’s nothing, no need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, would you have lunch with me?” he suggested.


    Chaim gently bowed, extending his hand towards Katherine.


    The female colleagues around them were all inwardly shocked, as they had been discussing Chaim’s gentlemanly nature.


    “Oh, how could this be?”


    Katherine pretended to be reserved, and Chaim took it a step further. “Having lunch with you would be my honor.”


    These words caused a few screams from the surrounding female colleagues. They never expected the usually refined Chaim to have such a scene.


    And so, the two of them entered the restaurant in front of thepany together. Chaim was a perfect gentleman throughout, not only pulling out the chair for Katherine but also personally pouring the water.


    “I wonder if you have a boyfriend?” Chaim suddenly asked halfway through the meal.


    Katherine paused, unsure of what to say in front of someone who was pursuing her.


    “Not at the moment,” she replied.


    Upon hearing the word “moment,” Chaim’s eyes instantly lit up, wondering if he had a chance.


    “Since you don’t, Miss Maltz, please allow me to pursue you.”


    Katherine bit her lip lightly and didn’t respond.


    Soon, after a lunch together, Chaim escorted Katherine back to thepany, and news of his pursuit of Katherine spread throughout the entirepany.


    In the afternoon, when Katherine was preparing to leave for home, General Manager Ramiro Norman rushed over and boldly offered to apany her home.


    In no time, several high-level executives began pursuing Katherine, making her the talk of thepany.


    Soon enough, this matter reached the top floor office.


    Patrick listened to his assistant recount the recent rumors circting in thepany and fell into contemtion.


    He couldn’t believe that Katherine’s arrival had caused such a big stir in thepany. Several executives had abandoned their work and flocked to impress Katherine.


    This displeased Patrick greatly. Thepany hired them to work, not to engage in these methods of pursuing girls.


    Patrick frowned and immediately instructed his secretary to call those executives over. He wanted to question them thoroughly.


    Before long, the executives gathered in Patrick’s office. They looked at each other, hesitant to speak.


    “I hear you’ve been quite idletely.”


    Patrick’s face darkened as he interrogated the individuals in front of him.


    “No, no, we wouldn’t dare.”


    They all lowered their heads, unable to meet Patrick’s gaze directly.


    “Thepany hired you to work, not to chase after young girls. Pansy Group strictly prohibits office romances. Haven’t you learned this rule after working here for so long?”


    Patrick shouted angrily, leaving the executives speechless.


    “There will be no year-end bonuses this year, and if this happens again in the future, you can consider yourselves fired.”


    Patrick left them with those words, causing their pupils to contract in shock.


    It was truly a case of losing more than gaining. Not only did they fail to win over Katherine, but they also lost their year-end bonuses.


    They regretted their actions deeply. After leaving Patrick’s office, none of them spoke, and nobody dared to bring up Katherine’s name again.


    News of Patrick’s punishment for the executives spread throughout thepany, and everyone mistakenly believed that Patrick was jealous, which caused him to explode in anger.
