Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 228

"Why do you insist on me going back to Waldorf Enterprises?" Pearl couldn't quite comprehend why Richard was offering her such an important position. Becoming a vice president was no small matter and essentially meant taking on a significant role within the company.

Richard looked tenderly at Pearl. "I want you to be close to me because I like you."

After much contemplation, Richard had come to realize that he could offer Pearl something even better. While he couldn't change Sophia's position, he could grant Pearl a position equal to Sophia's.

"Please, don't be upset with me anymore. You're the future boss of Waldorf Enterprises, and I'm willing to give up the entire company for you." After that, he let out a long sigh. This had made up for his displeasure these days.

"I…" Staring at Richard in a trance, Pearl found herself at a loss for words. Frankly, Richard's heartfelt confession moved her deeply. She cared about his feelings toward her and how much he valued her.

"Alright, Richard." Dazed, she didn't know what else to say. She felt somewhat sensitive at this moment.

When they arrived at the villa, Richard didn't immediately get out of the car. Instead, he pulled Pearl into his arms.

This time, Pearl didn't resist but instead nestled against him, listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat and inhaling his comforting scent. A sudden impulse overcame her.

She lifted her head, gazing at Richard's strong jawline, and then boldly brought his face to hers, kissing him on the lips.

Their kiss ignited an intense, passionate atmosphere between them.

Richard, overcome by desire, took the lead in deepening the kiss, leaving a mark on her lips. Eventually, Pearl went limp in his arms.

"Oh, my rocking chair broke, so I came over and sat on yours. Ugh… I'm really sorry." Smiling, he asked, "I'd like to know if you've reconsidered working at my company. I can offer you what Richard can and more. Would you like to think about it again?"

As Pearl was about to decline, Richard suddenly appeared and glared at Raymond. "Don't worry, Mister Raymond. Pearl is doing just fine in my company, and she doesn't need to work for you."

"I'm asking for Miss Pearl's opinion, not yours, Mister Richard. Please don't interfere in others' affairs."

Raymond's statement successfully riled Richard. With possessiveness, Richard pulled Pearl into his arms. "What if I told you she's my fiancee? I don't see any issues with me getting involved in my fiancee's interactions with someone who clearly has ulterior motives."

If Raymond didn't have a good temper, he might have fought against Richard there and then.
