Chapter 65

Touching her chin thoughtfully, Pearl asked, “Are you trying to win me over, Mister Brandon?”

Laughing, Brandon commented, “Well, I do admire you very much.”

He then took out his business card and slowly pushed it to her table.

“Your abilities charm me, Miss Pearl. Have you ever considered a position higher than director, perhaps

the vice president role?”

With that, Brandon left, leaving Pearl to her thoughts.

The vice president? It looked like the ambitious Brandon had set his sights on the position of president.

Later that night, upon returning home, Pearl found everyone else asleep except for Richard, who sat

alone in the living room reading documents.

After stretching a bit, Pearl sat down beside him and asked, “How’s your hand?”

Pausing briefly, Richard replied calmly, “It’s much better now.”

However, Pearl was skeptical and attempted to check his hand, but he dodged her.

“You won’t die if you let me take a look,” she whispered.

But Richard changed the topic. “What did Brandon say to you earlier?”

Pearl leaned against the sofa and smiled. “Why do you think he came to me?”

“To win you over.

Pursing her lips, Pearl commented, “How boring!”

Richard ignored her response and asked gloomily, “What are you going to do then?”

“What am I going to do?” Pearl looked into his eyes with interest. “I’m going to say yes, of course, since

he promised to make me vice president. Only fools would turn down such a great offer.”

Naturally, Richard wasn’t convinced. He asked, “Aren’t you afraid of exposing your plan to me?”

Pearl yawned. “Stop pretending, Richard. Tell me your plan.”

It was beyond Richard’s expectation that Pearl reacted so fast. Raising his brows, he suggested, “I

want you to say yes.” “Why?”

Of course, Richard had come up with a plan. “We’re going to beat him at his game.

Her interest piqued, Pearl said, “I’m listening.”

“Agree to his proposal and work with him to gather evidence. I aim to rid the company of his

supporters.”

Smiling, Pearl mused, “Ah, you noticed it too. There are many strangers in the company. I thought all

you did was work and you didn’t recognize others.”

Richard was rendered speechless.

“Okay, it’s time to sleep. We’re going to have a fierce battle.” Pearl stood up and walked upstairs.

“Pearl.”

Suddenly, Richard stopped her.

Pausing, Pearl turned around and teased, “What’s the matter?”

“You’re really special.”

She seemed to be an expert in everything, leaving others bewildered. One could never predict the

surprises she would unveil

next.

In short, Richard found her very unique.

Pearl replied languidly, “I’ll assume you’ve fallen in love with me, Richard.”

Her words immediately brought a somber expression to his face. “Don’t jump to conclusions.”
