Chapter 630
“No! Stay away! Stay away” The woman suddenly waved her broom at Pearl after the latter got a clear
look at her face.
“Um-”
“You’re her child. Get out of here!”
Pearl quickly realized she was talking about her mother, Beah.
“Do you have a grudge against my mother?” Pearl politely inquired despite the woman’s hostile
attitude.
The woman managed to calm down somewhat upon realizing what had happened, but she still
sounded annoyed. “I told you not to come here. I don’t like you so stop talking to me or asking me any
more questions.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPearl finally noticed that although the woman wore a cleaner’s uniform, she exuded an air of
refinement. Could this woman have come from a well–off family in the past?
“Ma’am…”
The word seemed to be a trigger, as the woman immediately flew into a rage upon hearing it.
“I told you so many times, stop calling me that!”
Pearl nodded as she watched the woman pack up all her cleaning equipment and quickly left as if she
were running away.
‘What a weird woman.‘ Pearl thought it was odd. Since she was wrapped in thick clothing and only her

district. It was surprising that the establishment he operated was comparatively modest. Upon entering,
Pearl was greeted by luxurious decor that offered some insight. While many shops tried to attract
customers with elaborate exteriors, only to have standard interiors, this one was different. Despite its
small size, the interior was tastefully decorated and alluring.
Pearl was mesmerized when a voice interrupted her thoughts.
“Are you the newly hired escort?”
Startled, Pearl turned around to face a pair of old yet clear eyes.

representatives promptly. However, it seemed that the executive they had dispatched wasn’t in a hurry
to engage in discussions.
In the meeting room, Richard regarded the man with a greasy face with disdain.
“Our president mentioned that we would commence our partnership talks once the agreement was
signed. Is he going back on his word?” Richard’s assistant expressed frustration upon realizing that
only an executive had been sent.
The man appeared unperturbed and maintained his composure even after the assistant’s outburst.
“Well, our president has been quite occupied lately, so they sent me to entertain you first.”
The man emphasized the word ‘entertain‘ as his eyes gleamed with amusement.
