NovelUpdateChapter 1147 Theo's expression darkened, and he frowned. "Grandpa, it's not that I don't want to listen to you, but this situation is already affecting the company. I need to give the shareholders an explanation. Several of them confrontedtoday." Just thinking about the scowls on those shareholders' faces irritated him. He knew full well that they didn't take him seriously. Seven had the nerve to compare him unfavorably to Jane.
Pedro stared at him coldly. "A few complaints from shareholders, and you're already falling apart? What will you do if the company faces a real crisis?" "Grandpa, if you keep stirring things up like this, we might not need to wait for a real crisis-the company could collapse any day now," Theo countered.
"Say that again?" Pedro growled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFacing his grandfather's icy glare, Theo instinctively shrank back, muttering under his breath, "I'm just stating the facts..." "Get out!" Pedro hurled a file at his feet, his face livid with anger.
Theo sighed helplessly. "Grandpa, getting mad won't fix anything. You insisted on breaking off the partnership with Prospectus Technology, and now I'm stuck cleaning up the mess." "If you say one more word, you won't need to show up at the company tomorrow!" Pedro threatened.
Theo fell silent. So much for speaking the truth...
He turned and left the study.
His phone rang the moment he stepped out of the house. It was his secretary. "Mr. Wilkie, since we terminated the partnership with Prospectus Technology, our production line has ground to a halt. Inventory is piling up, and if this continues, the company's cash flow could dry up at any moment," his secretary reported.
Every day the factory sat idle cost millions in losses. The Wilkie Group, still recovering, didn't have much cash on hand. Another month of this, and they'd be staring down bankruptcy again.
Theo frowned. "Understood. I'll head back now." In Damon's office...
Spencer stood before him with a report. "Mr. Sumner, after ending the partnership with the Wilkie Group, we're struggling to meet product demand. We need to find a new partner quickly." "I understand. Schedule a meeting with Mr. Guinness from the Watson Group," Damon instructed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSpencer nodded. "Got it. I'll arrange it right away." Damon picked up a document and began reviewing it.
Not long after, Spencer returned, knocking before stepping into the office. "Mr. Sumner, contacted M Guinness, but he's 'said he's been swamped lately. Their production is maxed out, and they can't take on new projects." Damon put down his pen and looked at him. "Alright. Reach out to other companies and see if anyone is willing to work with us."
After Spencer left, Damon walked over to the window and made a call.
"Mr. Guinness, you've been preparing e to work with Prospectus Technology for a while now. Why is it that back then you had surplus capacity, but now you're suddenly overloaded?"
There was a pause on the other end before Percy Guinness replied, sounding somewhat helpless, "Mr. Sumner, it's not that don't want to O work with you. The truth is, we recently landed a massive order. Our production lines are running day and night, and we really don't have the capacity for more. I suggest you try reaching out to someone else." "Understood." After ending the call, Damon immediately contacted Tom. "Check whether the Watson Group has recently signed any large contracts. If so, find out with whom." Tom, caught off guard for a moment, quickly replied, "Alright. I'll look into it." After the call ended, Tom leaned back in his chair, feeling slightly dazed.
