NovelAppManager In the study of the Bennet family’s mansion...
"Miss Bennet, who did you say Mr.Sullivan asked you to investigate?" Andy asked, looking at Rachel.
She looked away from the computer screen and met Andy’s gaze.
"The project manager of the KD Group.What’s the matter? Is there something strange about that person?"
After saying that, she looked at the computer again.
Rachel had just returned from the Sullivan Group’s building.
On her way back, she googled the KD Group using her mobile phone, and she now had a general idea of the company.
The KD Group’s headquarters was located in Wall Street, and it started as an oil mining company.
Later on, they bought several mines to exploit raw gemstones.
At present, it was now supplying raw materials for thirty percent of the jewelry brands all around the globe.
The Sullivan Group had been wanting to enter the jewelry industry and create an independent brand.
Recently, the KD Group had been intending to raise funds of their own, and Victor wanted to know who was in charge of
financing the project.
Probably, because he wanted the Sullivan Group to enter the market through participating in KD’s financing The information
scattered on the Internet was varied.
Rachel only skimmed a few of them, but she never found any information on the financial manager of this project.
Obviously, she wasn’t happy about it.
It was acceptable for the manager’s private information like birth date or experience to not be present on the Internet, but it made
no sense that the person’s name and gender couldn’t be found as well.
"Miss Bennet, I think we should give up on looking for this person."
Andy put down a book on economic laws and walked to Rachel’s side.
She then closed the web browser, glanced at him, and asked, "Why? What’s so special about this KD Group?"
"You’re never going to find any information about it because Mr.Sullivan knew that already.He did it on purpose.I’m sure he
wanted to scare you off."
Andy sat down to contemplate for a moment.
Seconds later, he said, "The KD Group is just a supplier of raw gemstones.It’s not the biggest in the world, and there’s nothing
special about them.It’s just that this specific manager is quite peculiar."
Rachel raised an eyebrow but said nothing.She looked at Andy, motioning him to go on.
"This certain project manager became part of the KD Group two years ago.Miss Bennet, you must’ve already searched the KD
Group.Do you know when it began to do well?" Rachel nodded.
"Two years ago, right?"
had made no mistakes in decision-making, which surprised their competitors in their respective industry.Since then, the company
had quickly occupied thirty percent of the rough diamond supply in the market.But there’s one thing you probably don’t know.Two
years prior to the KD Group’s success the company was just a small supplier, barely occupying five percent of the market.In the
past two years, its market share has multiplied.And this achievement had something to do with the peculiar project manager."
Indeed, Rachel knew little about what Andy was talking about.She only skimmed through the company’s development.
Now that she knew that this project manager sounded like a very capable person.
‘But...’
"Is this what makes the project manager so special? I think this only proves the KD Group’s capabilities in hiring the right
people.Of course, this manager must have outstanding business acumen, but what does that have to do with my investigation?"
"Miss Bennet, if you’re one of the KD Group’s competitors and you know it employs a very capable manager, what would you
do?"
Rachel leaned on the table, supporting her chin with her fist, and said, "I’ll find a way to convince this manager to work for me."
After saying that, something dawned on her.
The look on her face froze for a moment, and she put her hand down while looking at Andy.
"Andy, are you saying that..."
"If you’re able to figure that out, then the KD Group’s competitors have already thought of it as well.Many people are attempting
to poach this manager using astronomically high salaries, but after so long, nobody has ever succeeded."
Rachel’s eyes darkened.
She remembered how she didn’t find anything on the web about this manager.
"The reason no one has succeeded is because nobody knows this manager’s identity, right? That’s why even if they offer this
person a high price, it wouldn’t do them any good."
Andy nodded in agreement.
"Over the past two years, this manager has not shown up in any event.Nobody knows the manager’s name and gender aside
from the senior executives of the KD Group.That’s what really makes this person special.Thus, many people have theorized that
the manager never existed in the first place, and it’s all a ruse made by the KD Group."
‘‘That is weird,’’ Rachel thought.
‘‘Nowadays, anyone can find almost anything on the Internet.How has this person hid their identity so well? To top it off, they
managed to do it for two years! How could that not be weird?’ "Haven’t their competitors tried to hire any hackers to investigate
the manager?"
"Yes, they have," Andy replied.
"But they all failed. That’s why I said Mr.Sullivan did it on purpose.He’s asking you to find out all the information regarding this
person within twenty four hours.If those hackers hired for a high price couldn’t find that information for two years, what chance do
we have of finding it? It’s simply an impossible task!"
"If this person really doesn’t exist, then why did the KD Group build up the entire ruse? Are they trying to keep their opponents
vigilant? That makes no sense.As long as this person really exists, I’m sure there will be clues that would lead to his or her
identity.If those hackers failed to do it, it just means they suck." Rachel smirked.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
"Miss Bennet..."
Rachel met Andy’s gaze and said, "Andy, this is the only way we can save the Bennet Group, so I refuse to give up.
Even if we only have twenty-four hours, I’ll try to find this manager no matter how hard it could get.
Victor can’t scare me off, because that word doesn’t exist in my vocabulary."
Andy was surprised to hear such bold words from Rachel.
For a moment, he saw a glimpse of Elisa in her.
Although the Bennet family was rich and powerful, it was nothing compared to the other wealthy and influential families in the
city.
To them, the Bennet family was insignificant.
But despite that fact, Elisa’s name was known far and wide.
She was a beautiful as a fairy.
She was well-bred and gentle, but she always acted decisively.
After the death of her parents, she took over the Bennet Group alone and ran the business on her own.
Back then, everyone thought she was just a spoiled lady who grew up knowing nothing other than having fun, and they thought
Elisa wouldn’t be able to run the Bennet Group.
But against all odds, she made it.
Thanks to her efforts, the company reached greater heights.
Andy remembered how he once went to a dinner party with Elisa, aiming to sign a contract.
As the Bennet Group’s lawyer, he had to be present at all times to prevent someone from tampering with the contract whenever
Elisa was drunk.
That day, before she went to that dinner, Elisa had just finished another socializing activity.
She had drunk a lot of wine, and she was getting a little tipsy while waiting for her client in one of the restaurant’s VIP rooms.
Andy remembered how he poured her a glass of lemonade and said, "Miss.Bennet, I heard past got so drunk that they were sent
to the hospital for alcohol intoxication, but in the end, he didn’t sign their contracts.On top of that, his terms and conditions are
particularly tricky."
"What are you trying to say?"
Elisa put the glass of lemonade on the table.
"Are you persuading me to give up on this cooperation?"
"That’s not what I’m saying.I’m just worried you’ll get hammered tonight, and in the end, he still won’t agree to work with us,"
replied Andy.
Elisa lowered her head in silence.
He couldn’t tell what she was thinking at the moment.
After a long silence, Elisa drank half of the lemonade, put the glass down, and raised her eyebrows at Andy.
"Getting scared isn’t in my vocabulary."
