Chapter 291

Finally, the butler flashed Pearl a smile. “Let’s set off today. I guess we’ll get there in half a day.” novelbin

Pearl shook her head. “I need to return to the Waldorfs for something. Can you give me two hours?”

The butler nodded, afraid that Pearl might change her mind if he pressed too hard. “Sure.”

Back at the Waldorf Residence, Pearl found Richard waiting for her in the living room. He appeared

rather displeased.

“How did it go? Did they try to intimidate you?” he asked.

Smiling and shaking her head, Pearl looked at Richard’s worried face. “No, not at all. I’m Pearl, and no

one can bully me. But I do need to visit the Jordans now.”

“Must you go?” Richard had a gut feeling that the Jordans might not be pleasant, and he worried about

Pearl facing hardships there.

Sighing, Pearl replied, “Well, I can’t really refuse since they’re quite insistent. It’s better to go. and avoid

any further trouble. Don’t worry. I don’t think they’ll harm me, considering I’m Master Jordan’s

granddaughter.”

But Richard was determined to protect Pearl. “If you don’t want to go, then don’t. I’ll protect you.”

“It’s okay. Besides, I’ll be back soon. Just manage the company well and wait for my return.”

At first, Richard wanted to go with her, but the thought of Waldorf Enterprises held him back. “If that’s

the case, be careful. Let me know if anything happens, and I’ll rush over immediately.

Pearl nodded, bid farewell to Dustan, and got into the Jordan family’s car to leave.

Growing up in a small town in Enswood, she had gone abroad as an adult before returning to

Enswood. She never expected her first visit to Bodgow to be under such circumstances.

Bodgow, as the capital city, was less corrupt and extravagant than Enswood, which was an economic

city, but it was more luxurious and advanced.

The Jordan Residence, situated in the heart of Bodgow, exuded an extraordinary status. When Pearl

laid eyes on the grand estate, she was shocked beyond words.

Her stunned expression earned a derisive comment from Blake. “What a bumpkin you are!”

Raising her brows, Pearl retorted, “You think I can’t afford a place like this?”

Blake snorted. “Even if you’re rich, you’re still an ignorant upstart.”

Pearl struggled to contain her irritation but eventually failed. She glanced at the nearby garden and,

when he wasn’t paying attention, playfully kicked him into a flowerbed.

It wasn’t a forceful or painful kick, but the sight of the noble heir of Bodgow being kicked into a

flowerbed was quite comical.

Consequently, Blake fell onto the dirt, crushing the blooming flowers. It was rather hilarious.

It took Blake a while to regain his composure as he lay amidst the flowers, humiliated by being kicked

by a seemingly delicate woman. After removing a flower from his head, he slowly rose. to his feet,

glaring fiercely at Pearl, who was uncontrollably laughing.

“Pearl Leighton!” He gnashed his teeth and was about to get off the flowerbed to teach Pearl ? lesson,

but out of nowhere, a rock struck his leg, causing it to give way, and he tumbled back into the

flowerbed.

With a dull thud, he crushed the flowers again.

“Blake!” A loud scream came from the distance.

The familiar voice sent a shiver down Blake’s spine as he recalled his current state. He realized he was

in deep trouble, having suffered a huge humiliation.
