Chapter 341 Mr. Pratt Arrives

Nettie had been in a state of annoyance before.

Upon hearing Madeline introduce the man in his thirties who came in with her, it turned out he was Guillermo, the Director of the Business Strategy Department at Eastern District Development Corporation.

She immediately turned around and leaned in.

Because the turn was too sharp, it almost tipped over onto the ground.

Stumbled a few times before finally steadying his feet.

The executives of Ocean Constructions knew.

The Business Strategy Department was one of the three most important departments directly managed by Karina.

Such senior executives within the group headquarters were treated almost at the level of a vice president.

Such a high–profile figure visiting this place was indeed a big deal!

At that moment, Nettie couldn’t care less about Robin, Karina, and Karsyn. She scrambled over to Guillermo.

“Mr. Pratt. I am Madeline’s aunt Nettie May, you can call me Nettie, hahaha…”

Thirty–one–year–old Guillermo, upon hearing nearly fifty–year–old Nettie speak like this, let out an awkward laugh, “Uh… hello.”

Nettie laughed so hard that her body fat jiggled all over, almost pressing a few chunks of it onto Guillermo’s body.

10:10

“Mr. Pratt, Mr. Blair is inside. Oh yes, the young Mr. Blair is the chairman of Ocean Constructions, a subsidiary of your company.”

Guillermo tried hard to dodge Nettie, giving a stiff smile, “Hello, Mr. Blair.”

Felix hurriedly ran out from his seat.

There was no time to blame Robin and others.

In three strides and two rushes, he reached Guillermo and tightly grasped his hand.

A 90–degree bow

He complimented with a smile, “Mr. Pratt, we’ve been waiting for you!”

“A few of our department heads arrived here three hours early today, just to await your esteemed arrival!”

Guillermo looked at the respectful demeanor of Felix in front of him. feeling quite uncomfortable, “Mr. Blair, you don’t have to be like this, everyone just order whatever you want, it’s just a family dinner, there’s no need to be so polite.”

Felix held Guillermo’s hand tightly, “Mr. Pratt, how could you say that? You are the leader, and a leader is like a parent, these formalities are necessary!”

Several junior leaders from Ocean Constructions also jumped up from their seats, tightly surrounding Guillermo.

They practically carried him to the banquet table, pressing him into the seat at the very center of the innermost row.

Guillermo glanced at the seating arrangement and quickly stood up, “I

can’t sit in this seat!”

“Wait a moment. Ms. Huber and Mr. Bruce might still come over, I can’t sit in the boss’s seat. I’d better sit on the side.

Felix thought, “That’s fine, that’s fine, Mr. Pratt, you can sit in this seat. next to Ms. Huber.”

Guillermo didn’t refuse either, he just sat down.

Based on the people Madeline invited today, excluding Karina and Robin. he should have been eligible to sit in this position.

After Guillermo sat down, he noticed that Felix and the others were still standing around. He gestured and said, “Don’t be formal, everyone please sit down.”

However, not a single passionate manager from Ocean Constructions sat down.

You and I, one after another, were eager to introduce ourselves in front of Director Wei of the group headquarters.

The male supervisor kept offering cigarettes.

The female supervisor had no cigarettes to offer, so she had no choice but to lower her neckline as much as possible, showcasing her cleavage.

Wished nothing could bother him, he would have loved to tear those two pieces of meat out and offer them to Guillermo.

Madeline’s mother, Marilyn, also wanted to step forward and greet her daughter’s immediate boss.

However, they were forcibly kept outside by a few enthusiastic junior leaders from Ocean Constructions.

She was extremely anxious.

There were several times when I wanted to squeeze through their gaps, but I just couldn’t get through.

The hairstyle that was deliberately done today was squashed like a bird’s nest.

After many attempts. I almost crawled under the table.

She hesitated for a moment outside the wall of people, then jumped up. waving her hand and shouting. “Mr. Pratt, Mr. Pratt, I’m here!”

Guillermo was already drenched in sweat at this moment, hardly able to notice Marilyn’s call.

“Mr. Pratt! Mr. Pratt!” Marilyn suddenly shrieked as if her tail had been stepped on. in her urgency.

The private room suddenly fell silent.

“Mr. Pratt!” Marilyn called out again, startling Guillermo.

Just after taking the cup of hot water from Felix, it suddenly shook and spilled all over.

Felix and a few junior leaders from Ocean Constructions also calmed down.

Everyone turned to look at Marilyn in the direction of the scream.

Marilyn couldn’t care less at that moment, she forcefully pushed through the crowd to get to Guillermo: “Mr. Pratt! Hahaha….

“Ouch!” Guillermo jumped, the water cup in his hand completely fell to the ground.

10-10

“I am Madeline’s mother, my name is Marilyn May. I was 53 years old, had been divorced for many years, and had two children at home,

Madeline and her younger brother Johnny!”

Guillermo paused for a moment, it sounded like a matchmaking dialogue, didn’t it?

After a brief moment of confusion, he quickly stood up. “Hello, Ms. May ”

Marilyn excitedly said. “Mr. Pratt, you don’t have to call me Ms. May, just use my first name.”

“How could that be? My mother was about the same age as you…”

Marilyn laughed. “Mr. Pratt, you’re the boss, how could you call me Ms. May ?!”

Guillermo was quite embarrassed, but seeing Marilyn’s insistence, he could only squeeze out a sentence from his mouth: “Hello, Marilyn.”

“Sit, leader, sit!” Marilyn pressed Guillermo into his seat, suddenly straightened up, and bowed deeply to Guillermo, “Thank you for Mr. Pratt’s wise leadership, thank you for Mr. Pratt’s meticulous care for Madeline, thank you…”

Guillermo hastily stood up again, “Oh dear, Marilyn, you don’t have to do this, we’re all colleagues…”
