Chapter 43

“Abby, please understand it’s impossible between us.” Richard looked cold. “I think it’s best if we cut

contact if you insist on behaving this way.”

When they arrived at the Flores residence, he told her to get out and left without another word.

A hatred burned within Abby as she watched him speed away. ‘It must be because of that b*tch!

Otherwise, Rick wouldn’t be so cold toward me. You will pay for this, Pearl!”

It was one o’clock in the morning when Richard got home. Pearl coincidentally came downstairs for

water. When she saw him rush into the house looking exhausted, she teased, “You’re finally home,

Richard?”

Richard asked in answer, “Why are you still up?”

“I just came to get so

some water. Did you think I was waiting for you to come home?”

Her words vexed him. “Go to bed early. I want you to come with me to sign the contract tomorrow.” He

went to his bedroom without waiting for an answer.

Richard and Pearl woke up early the next morning to head to the hotel as the business partner they

were meeting was usually punctual. Lawson Enterprises, their new business partner, specialized in

jewelry, and they were only inferior to Cerubleu. Chet Lawson, the vice president of Lawson

Enterprises, came to discuss the contract with Richard and Pearl. He kept glancing at Pearl out of the

corner of his eye while reading the contract.

“The contract’s good. Did you draft this, Miss Pearl?” Chet smiled suggestively while staring at Pearl.

Although she felt disgusted, Pearl nodded. “Yes, I did. Please tell me if there’s anything you’re

dissatisfied with. We can discuss it ”

Chet placed his hand on Pearl’s. “You seem really friendly, Miss Pearl. How about we have a meal

together and discuss the project further?”

Richard angrily stared at Chet’s on Pearl’s. He then quietly pulled Pearl into his arms. “You can discuss

the project with me, Mister Chet. I understand Pearl’s thoughts as she’s my fiancee.”

His remark made Pearl’s eyes go wide with shock. When did she become his fiancee?

But she kept silent as she did not want the old pervert taking advantage of her to sign a contract.

Chet’s face sank. “I didn’t know you two were engaged.”

Richard answered, “We will be sooner or later.”

Chet said with dissatisfaction, “I think we can call off the project if you insist on annoying me, Mister

Richard.”

Pearl snickered. “We spent a whole week drafting up this contract, Mister Chet. You want to call it off

just because you’re upset?”

Lawson Enterprises isn’t begging for this contract. It doesn’t bring it much anyway.” Chet got up to

leave but he suddenly stopped and smiled at Pearl “If you come to me, Miss Pearl, there’s a way

around it.”

“That won’t happen, Mister Chet.” Pearl icily watched Chet’s expression sour.

“Don’t flatter yourself. Waldorf Enterprises will never work with Lawson Enterprises,” Richard said.
