Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 44

In an act of protecting Pearl, Richard sneered. "Waldorf Enterprises doesn't need your company."

"We'll see about that." Chet glared at Richard fiercely and stormed off.

Pearl had not expected Richard to step forward. She asked as she smiled, "Were you defending me?"

Richard was moved by her smile, but he quickly looked away. "I couldn't stand him taking liberties with my employee."

Seeing his indifference, Pearl stopped teasing him. "What should we do now? Lawson Enterprises won’t work with us anymore. This is going to be an issue."

"I have a Plan B. Lawson Enterprises is a small fry and can't do anything to us."

Pearl was curious. "What's your plan?"

"I’ve decided to work with a foreign company. It will be a little more expensive, but Walford Enterprises can afford it."

"Why don't you work with Cerubleu instead?"

After a pause, Richard replied, "Cerubleu has always been mysterious, and the projects they take on are completely dependent on their president’s mood. We may waste a lot of time trying to get an appointment."

Waste a lot of time?

Richard had given up after Pearl refused to meet him once. It was outrageous.

Scoffing, Pearl suggested, "I'll handle it. I’ll get us a meeting with their president tomorrow."

"You can do that?" Richard turned his deep-set eyes to her.

Pearl was prepared with a logical explanation. "There's a fierce battle between Lawson Enterprises and Cerubleu. If we cooperate with Cerubleu, we can expand our market, help Cerubleu's development, and bring down Lawson Enterprises. Don't worry. I'm sure Cerubleu won't turn down such a win-win situation."
