Pearl had anticipated this situation, but hearing it from him still stirred a hint of panic within her. "Why?"
Wayne bit his lower lip, confusion evident in his deep, black eyes. "I suspect it's because they think you're dead. They're trying to team up to suppress
Cerubleu, either by annexing us or forcing us into bankruptcy.”
Pearl's gaze turned cold. Did they really think Cerubleu was defenseless?
"What about Damian? Didn't you approach him—" She stopped herself mid-sentence, realizing her mistake.
Damian hadn't even sorted out his own affairs yet. He wouldn't have had the tto attend to Cerubleu's troubles.
Pearl sighed deeply. "Let's head back to the office. | need to figure out how to handle this."
Wayne nodded, and they drove straight to Cerubleu.

Pearl's return to Enswood this twas certain to reveal that she was still alive. The news might not reach the others immediately, and the Jordans
likely wouldn't take action against her for the tbeing. Therefore, she decided to attend the impromptu emergency meeting.
In the meeting room, everyone was shocked, except for Wayne.
Several female colleagues who were on good terms with her were dumbfounded. "Miss Pearl, you're not dead?"
The news of Pearl's death had spread throughout Enswood, and everyone had mourned her loss.
"What's going on? If I'm dead, then who's standing right in front of all of you? A ghost?" Pearl laughed and glanced at the stunned woman.
"You're finally back, Miss Pearl! You have no idea. Many companies are bullying us now, and our finances are in serious trouble!" a man said with a
gloomy expression. He was the head of the finance department and understood the company's financial situation best.
"It's not a big problem. How long can the company's funds sustain us?"
After careful consideration, the man reported a figure. "Probably about twenty days."
"Alright. In these twenty days, all of you just continue working as usual.”
People around her were puzzled. "How do we solve the company crisis?"
Pearl asserted confidently. "Don't worry about it for now. Trust me, | can pull the company through this crisis.”
Indeed, Pearl was the president of this renowned company! She had established such a large conglomerate before turning twenty and had propelled
it to the forefront of Enswood in just two years. As long as Pearl was in charge, nothing could bring them down!
After dismissing them, Wayne expressed his concerns, "Miss Pearl, you're well aware that this situation is quite grave..."

"l understand it's serious. That's why | told them not to panic and to carry on with their work.” Pearl knew that discussing this matter with them
wouldn't make much of a difference. This emergency meeting was mainly to reassure them, prevent panic, and maintain normal operations.
The current situation was intense, and it was clear her enemies were targeting her. They were exploiting her supposed death to act recklessly, and
whatever she said wouldn't make a difference.
Wayne voiced his worry, "So, what's your plan?"
At present, all the companies in Enswood, except for Waldorf Enterprises, were putting pressure on them. It felt like they were being surrounded.
Pearl lowered her head, carefully contemplating the situation carefully.
After a moment's pause, Wayne continued, "By the way, Miss Pearl, you had sconnections with Richard before. Can't you ask him for help?
Considering the past, he should at least offer shelp. After all, he hasn't been pressuring our company.”
Wayne's thoughts were still somewhat naive. At this point, he didn't know what had happened between her and Richard yet.
