Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 793

Annoyed by Winona's flirtatious attitude, Pearl said, "Did you graduate in finance, Miss Jesselton?"

Winona was baffled by the question and replied, "No, I studied art."

"Well then, it won't be much use to you since you won't understand it."

Pearl's words were blunt and hit Winona hard. Despite being the daughter of a successful entrepreneur, Winona's education had nothing to do with finance. She couldn't even understand contracts.

Winona bit her lip, tears welling up. "I just wanted to check the contract. Why are you being so aggressive, Miss Pearl?"

Seemingly moved by her tears, Richard handed her the contract. "No one's stopping you. Go ahead and take a look." After that, Richard looked at Pearl sternly.

This look left Pearl somewhat bewildered, but she quickly got the message. Richard was warning her not to offend Winona again.

Pearl's anger flared, and she remarked casually, "I do see some problems with the contract."

This caught Hugo and Richard's attention, who were ready to sign. They turned to Pearl and asked, "What's the issue with the contract?"

"I believe Mister Richard pushing someone who has nothing to do with the entertainment industry, with no popularity, to be our spokesperson will result in substantial losses for our company. I suggest raising the price to 40 million dollars."

Pearl gave a sly smirk, barely detectable.

"You're investing in love, Mister Richard. How can that be considered overcharging? The more you spend on Miss Jesselton, the happier she'll be. It's all about love." She countered his words, "Does that mean Miss Jesselton isn't important to you? You won't even spend a few million for her?"

Richard's gaze darkened. "Of course not."

"Well, I'm concerned about Richard's finances, and I don't want him to spend too much," Winona quickly added. Although that was what she said, she knew Richard might be moved by her words, perhaps even grow fonder of her.

She glared at Pearl, as if she were standing up for Richard. "I believe 30 million is already quite a lot, Miss Pearl. 40 million seems excessive."

Pearl twirled the pen in her hand, smiling lightly. "You know, you can tell if a man truly cares by how much he's willing to spend on you. The Waldorfs have tens of millions in assets. If he won't even spend 40 million on you, then maybe being his fiancee isn't all that special after all."
