NovelEnglishWhen the call finally connected, Pearl heard a familiar voice that froze her in place.
"Richard, is that you?"
"Yes, how can | help you?" Richard replied calmly, his voice unwavering.
Pearl began to piece together that the company founding the software in question was likely Waldorf Enterprises. "You are the boss of this company,
right?"
Richard confirmed, "Yes."

"Then can you tellwhy you banned Silas's account for no reason?"
Richard maintained his composure as he asked, "How are you involved in this?"
"I am his boss, and he works for my company. His livestream account was banned for no apparent reason, and it will have a huge impact on the
interests of our company,” Pearl lied, exaggerating the situation. Silas alone wouldn't create significant consequences, but she needed Richard's
intervention.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, he calmly said with a hint of disdain in his voice, "I would never guess your company is relying on an influencer to
maintain its profits.”
Richard's remark was both mocking and dismissive, which angered Pearl. She retorted sarcastically, "I didn't expect your company to ban someone's
account for no reason. I'm sure your employees are doing this because the person at the top of the management isn't very ethical.”
Her comment seemed to hit a nerve with Richard, causing his expression to darken.
"I'm not interested in small talk. Unban the account now," Pearl asserted boldly, surprising Richard.
"Who are you to giveorders?" he retorted.
Pearl continued stubbornly, "I told you that if you ban the account for no reason, | have the right to complain against you."
"Then you go ahead. I'll accept the loss if your complaint works."

Pearl felt frustrated and helpless. "Richard, why did you turn into this kind of person?" she couldn't help but ask.
Richard, who had been signing documents, paused when he heard her question. "We have nothing to do with each other anymore, so you have no
right to question me," he replied dismissively before hanging up.
Meanwhile, Winona had been listening outside the door. She entered and pretended to have just arrived.
"Richard, why do you look so unhappy? Did something happen?" Winona put on a soft, caring demeanor, speaking with the tone of a loving partner.
"Nothing. Work is just a little messy so I'm in a bad mood," Richard responded coldly.
Winona stepped closer, placing her hands on his shoulders and gently squeezing them. "I know you love work, but don't tire yourself. It would hurt
me."
Richard felt an urge to brush her hand away but resisted the impulse. Instead, he turned his head and forced a smile. "Thank you, Winona. I'm so
lucky to have you."
