Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 6

Pearl could tell that it was Richard's voice and immediately turned him down. "It's fine. I'm already having lunch with Mister Oliver."

After she hung up the call, Oliver smiled. He was not a busybody and had just learned this morning why she was at the company.

"Pea, I’ve met all the Waldorf brothers, and I think the most excellent among them is Richard. He became the company president and secured many big projects these years. He's steady and exceptional, you should consider him."

After Pearl sipped on some water, a repulsed expression could be seen on her face. "No way. Why would I ever consider marrying that cold man, Mister Oliver?"

In her opinion, Richard was arrogant and indifferent. She had merely said she liked him this morning to infuriate him.

Oliver burst into laughter and then proceeded to tell her about the other Waldorfs. Once they were done with lunch, they went back to the company. Pearl still remained at the security booth for the whole afternoon.

After his meeting, Richard learned from his assistant where Pearl was and frowned. She had claimed this morning that she liked him the most, but then she stayed at the security post the entire day. What was up her sleeve?

Sitting at his office desk, Richard was silent for a few seconds before instructing, "Look into Oliver's background and his relationship with Pearl."

"Right away, sir."

Right after the assistant turned around, Richard added, "And get Pearl upstairs."

Before long, Pearl came up. She looked around his office before asking lazily, "What's up?"

"Dad won’t be happy if he finds out you’ve been at the security booth all day."

Pearl rolled her eyes when she heard his excuse. "Fine. Remember that you’re the one who called me up here. Don't blame me if I distract you from your work." She then sat down on the sofa leisurely.

Richard ignored her and went back to his work. Meanwhile, Pearl took out her phone and started playing a game. She even put her phone volume on the loudest setting, which made Richard frown slightly.
