Pearl thought about it but remained stubborn. “I’m expensive. Are you sure you can afford me?
“Do I need to sell off Waldorf Enterprises to pay for you?” Richard slowly approached her with a
flirtatious tone.
Pearl’s ears turned red. “So what? Even if you do that, you might still not be able to afford me.
“Well, tell me how much you need then.”
Pearl’s eyes darted around before settling on a figure. “Well, if you insist, I’ll give you a good figure.”
“Oh?” Richard gently touched her hair, showing interest.
“A billion dollars. I think that’s a fair price.”
Richard’s face froze when he heard that. “You’re really going for it.”
Pearl had expected him to change his mind, but to her surprise, he seemed to become more
interested. “That’s too low. How about 10 billion?”
Pearl rolled her eyes. “Stop joking.”
Richard pinched her chin to make her look into his eyes. “You’re the one who started it.”
Pearl’s face turned red. “I just want to get away from you.”
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. He was the one who had pushed her away, yet
now he acted as if she were at fault.
Richard was infuriating. None of the Waldorf brothers were good men!
As her tears flowed unnoticed, a rough finger suddenly brushed against her eyes. Richard was wiping
away her tears.
Pearl wasn’t even aware she had started crying, and her tears had escaped from the corners of her
eyes. It was the second time she had cried that day, and she felt deeply embarrassed.
“Alright, you can hate me or dislike me, but you can’t work here, do you understand?” Richard had
never been this gentle with her since he changed. If she hadn’t experienced it firsthand, she would
never have believed it.
Pearl was startled and struggled to find a way to express her feelings. “I have my reasons for being
here.”
Richard frowned. “What would make you sacrifice your body?”
“I’m not sacrificing my body. I have my reasons.” Pearl glared at him with a hostile expression. “Now
that you’ve shown up and disrupted my plan, I’ll need to find a new way to get in touch with that man.”
That man had what she needed. If Richard hadn’t messed things up, she could have lured him into a
room, threatened him, and coerced him into handing over what she sought. Such bad luck!

“Tell me what you need, and I can help you with anything,” Richard offered, a rare display of
helpfulness. “Don’t lie. Dress properly and come with me.”
Annoyed by her revealing attire, he removed his jacket and attempted to place it on her.
“No need.” Pearl shook her head and sidestepped the offered jacket. “I said I have things I need to do.
I’m not leaving.”
Neither of them was willing to yield, and just then, a voice came from behind. novelbin
“What are you doing?”
It was calm, gentle, yet authoritative. This was the first impression Pearl had when she heard the
newcomer’s voice.
