Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 636

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.

"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.

"What are you doing?"

It was calm, gentle, yet authoritative. This was the first impression Pearl had when she heard the newcomer's voice.
