Pearl returned to the hotel and knocked on Richard’s door.

“Richard, I need to talk to you.”

Before she could say anything more, Richard cut her off coldly, “I don’t have time.”

Sensing his bad mood, Pearl decided not to say anything more.

The two stood there at the door for a while, and just as Richard thought of softening his tone, a call

came in.

He picked up, and Hugo’s voice came from the other end. “Richard, Jenny is back.”

Those three words were like a pebble tossed into a calm lake, making ripples in Richard’s calm heart.

Hugo and Jenny went to the same university and were quite close, so Hugo’s information was likely

accurate.

Richard immediately said, “Where is she? Tell me.”

The surroundings were quiet enough for Pearl to hear everything.

Jenny was Richard’s first love? She was back? Hugo was right. Richard had never truly let go of her.

“She’ll be back for a short visit and will be on the flight to Aflus tomorrow morning.”

If her flight was tomorrow morning, it meant Richard had time to return.

He said, “I’ll head back immediately.” Richard hung up and, upon lowering his gaze, noticed the

expression on Pearl’s face, which made his heart ache.

Pearl took a deep breath and asked, “Are we still going to talk about the partnership?”

Richard looked directly into her eyes and appeared pensive. “Let’s cancel the partnership, Pearl.”

“The partnership with NK Group would bring a lot of benefits to Waldorf Enterprises. Are you sure you

want to let it go?” Pearl said in a low voice, her heart aching.

The Richard she knew wouldn’t easily give up an opportunity that benefited the company so much.

“I have something urgent to attend to. Let’s cancel it for now.”

“Something urgent? You mean you’re going to see her, right? Richard, I could still close the deal

without you, so you’re free to go wherever you please.”

Richard frowned. “It’s not what you think.”

“Whatever. It’s none of my business.” Pearl wasn’t interested in whatever he was going to say, so she

turned around and left. Richard’s eyes dimmed. He resisted the urge to chase after her and left the

hotel.

Pearl returned to her room, her emotions in turmoil. Suddenly, a call from Wayne came through.

Annoyed, she answered, What?”

Wayne was taken aback by her tone and asked, “Are you alright?”

She frowned and replied, “I’m fine. Why did you call?”
