Chapter 286

Pearl blushed. At the same time, Richard’s expression took on a dangerous edge, and he let out a low

grunt.

Knowing that she couldn’t hide the truth, Pearl spoke honestly, “I didn’t want you to think I had ulterior

motives… Would you have allowed me to continue working at Waldorf Enterprises if you had known my

true identity?”

Richard answered without any hesitation, “Yes, I would.”

“Alright then. I was being petty.”

However, Richard’s seriousness didn’t waver. “What are your plans now that your identity is revealed?”

He was uneasy, fearing that Pearl might return to Cerubleu after her true role as its president came to

light.

His worry brought out a chuckle from Pearl. “Don’t worry, I won’t go back to Cerubleu.”

Finally, Richard’s gloominess lessened somewhat.

Staring at Richard, Pearl teased, “You once promised to let me have Waldorf Enterprises. Does that

promise still stand?”

She aimed to lighten the mood, but Richard took her question seriously. With an air of determination,

he stood up and calmly stated, “The company is yours as long as you’re engaged to me.”

Pearl gaped and asked in astonishment, “Aren’t you worried about causing trouble, Richard?” She had

never met someone so straightforward, willing to hand over an entire company to her without

hesitation.

Smiling, Richard explained, “I can set up another company, but I’ll lose my wife if you’re gone.

Pearl turned beet red. She had never agreed to be his wife, and he was speaking as if she would marry

him immediately. “Nonsense! I never promised to marry you.”

“Oh? I didn’t quite get that. What did you say?” Richard’s response was filled with somberness.

Feeling the pressure from Richard, Pearl took a step back and confessed, “I haven’t thought this

through. Besides, you can’t force me into marriage. Shouldn’t we let things happen naturally?” She felt

that he was inviting unnecessary trouble for her.

Pulling Pearl into his arms, Richard whispered in her ear, “When are you going to marry me if I don’t

force you?”

“What’s the rush?”

“I can’t wait any longer.” Richard’s temper flared because so many men, including Hanzel, Raymond,

Wayne, and that unhinged Hugo, were coveting Pearl. He felt that they might cause problems if he

didn’t marry her soon.

While Pearl was moved by his words, she still couldn’t be with him with peace of mind. “Let’s not rush

into things. I need to deal with something first.”

There was a matter that deeply troubled Pearl, concerning her mother’s disappearance. She

believed there was more to the story because her mother wouldn’t have left so abruptly, given her

parents’ passionate love for each other.

However, she remained clueless, as there were many mysteries yet to be uncovered. She

couldn’t be at peace until she resolved this issue.

“My mother left due to a conflict with my father. I’m sure you’re aware of that.”
