A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 551

Suddenly, Patrick looked at Wendy suggestively and asked, "Ms. Trader, why were you flirting with me earlier?"

Wendy acted oblivious as she replied, "Did I? When did I do that?"

"Stop pretending. I could feel it." A lewd smile appeared on Patrick's face.

"Wendy, you love a capable man. I can tell that you're fond of me. Frankly, I am fond of you too. Maybe we can try getting together? You're a beautiful woman, and I'm a handsome man. We're a match made in heaven."

Wendy stopped her pretense. She scoffed and retorted, "How in the world did you get that idea? You're delusional."

Patrick shamelessly said, "If you agree to be my girlfriend, I swear you'll be the only person I'll have my eyes on for the rest of my life. Okay?"

Then, Patrick boldly reached out, trying to lay his hand on Wendy, but Wendy raised her hand and slapped him. "Get lost!"

Patrick was dumbfounded by the slap. He held his face, afraid to utter another word.

Suddenly, Wendy smiled and taunted, "Honestly, I'm not stopping you from pursuing me. If you can lead the company well, go public, and create games like 'Legend of the East,' I might consider your proposition."

"Hmm…" Patrick looked conflicted.

Going public with the company wasn't difficult, but creating a game like "Legend of the East" was challenging.

Patrick had tried leading his team to develop new games, but even after investing a large sum of money, he had still come out empty-handed.

They had developed three games, including one large-scale game. However, this game received criticism for being unrefined and rushed. Even after several months, they had acquired less than 1000 online users.

Meanwhile, the other two games were removed because of their poor quality.

Patrick finally realized how vital Jack was but did not regret his decision.

Although Drakengard Games appeared to be thriving on the surface, it was actually fraught with crises.

Panzer Saga and other similar small-scale games were no longer garnering as much profit as they used to. Even if Legend of the East was still coming in strong, soaring in local markets, its success also attracted many game developers eager to imitate it.

Although these copycats were poor in quality and unable to create any substantial threat to Legend of the East, they eventually eroded the Game's player base.

Besides, they had invested much money in promoting Legend of the East overseas. Eventually, the game was banned, causing them to suffer huge losses.

This string of unfortunate events had undoubtedly placed Drakengard Games in a challenging situation.

With the continuous expansion of its business and massive investment in game development, Drakengard Games was drowning in debt and plagued with troubles.

Patrick called this meeting to encourage his employees to increase revenue and reduce costs, speeding up the development of new games.
