Chapter 175

Placing his hand on Pearl’s shoulders, Richard asked nonchalantly, “What do you think?”

“You can’t do this. Aunt Susan wishes you to marry me, not Pearl. What will she think if you do this?

She’s still in a coma at the hospital. How could you be with the person who pushed her down the

stairs?” Abby’s voice turned sharp as she refused to accept the situation.

“I’ve told you a long time ago that I’m not interested in you. Don’t attempt to manipulate me by

mentioning my mother or trying to push all the blame to Pearl.” Taking a step forward, Richard sounded

impatient. “Don’t you think it could have been you who pushed her, Abby?”

But Abby continued with her act. “Do you really think I could do something like that? I would never

harm Aunt Susan, Rick. She’s been so kind to me. How could I-

“Just stop. Don’t ruin my last good impression of you.” After that, Richard pulled Pearl to his office,

leaving Abby behind with her fear and anger.

Pearl leaned against the office table with curiosity. “Why did you suddenly speak up for me today,

Richard? Haven’t you always believed it was my fault?”

“I know you didn’t push my mom down the stairs.”

“Why the sudden change of heart?”

Richard looked out the window at the traffic outside and said, “The other day at the hospital, you were

so eager to prove it wasn’t your fault. You took care of my mom and even asked Mister Simon to come

one-sided accusations, and my heart will always be on your side.”

Warmth overwhelmed Pearl. She didn’t expect that Richard would take her side without any conditions.

“What are you thinking, Richard? Do you really want me to be your secretary?”

Richard looked at her and asked, “Why not? Isn’t being my secretary a good job?”

“But I’ve never been a secretary before. Why are you so sure everyone wants to get close to you like

Abby does?” Pearl rolled her eyes, clearly annoyed.

“Abby won’t remain the design director for long.” Richard kept his head down, his frustration hidden.

“Once I find evidence of her harming my mom, she’ll pay for it.”

Pearl nodded in understanding “Okay, I’ll bite the bullet and be your secretary for a few days.”

“Good. Start by making me a cup of coffee, no sugar.” With that, Richard settled into his office chair

and started reading

contracts.

“So fast, huh?” Cursing, Pearl went out to the coffee machine with Richard’s cup.

However, as Pearl left his office to fetch the coffee, she overheard Sean’s gossip.
