“We haven’t seen each other in years, and the first thing you do when we meet is throw a punch at me. Seriously!”
He looked at the aloof man sitting on the sofa with a face full of sorrow.

“Is that really Pearl With that bright and stunning appearance and those cold and mocking words! Seriously?” he wondered
He found himself deeply engulfed in doubt,

Lucas sat across from him, lit a cigarette, and continued to complain. I got beaten up by your woman last night and got punched by you this morning. I’m really having a run of bad luck. I mean, you two are really a fierce couple, like a perfect match. So, the question is, why did you get divorced?”
Marc raised his gaze and said coldly, “Ex–wife”
He was correcting what Lucas said about “a couple.”
Lucas choked on a puff of smoke, raising an eyebrow as he looked at Mare. “Why did you rare about your ex–wife so much to rush over here just because I said she was in Mansion Bro, you’re being a bit too conflicted with your words.”
Marc frowned and ignored Lucas gloating teasing. He said in a cold tone. “Stop talking nonsense. Who on earth is Pearl Shepard?
“What Pearl Shepard? Her surname is Woolery, and her given name is Pearl. Pearl Shepard‘ is totally a fake name.”
Lucas opened a bottle of red wine and poured two glasses. With a sympathetic smile, he looked at Marc, who was giving him a cold stare. He felt sorry for Marc, who had been deceived for three years. He couldn’t bear to break the news to him. “She is the legitimate heiress of the Woolery Group, Pearl Woolery.”
The name Pearl Woolery was like a magic bullet that exploded in the cars of
cars of Marc, leaving him perplexed and astonished
Various details and doubiful points these days intertwined and merged into a thread. The woman who disappeared and appeared suddenly and the other details fit together.
“Pearl Woolery. So, this is her true identity; said Mare inwardly.
Upon seeing her ex–husband early in the morning, Pearl was feeling extremely complicated emotions.
As a result, her mood worsened even more upon seeing Manfred in the office, especially when Manfred sat in her chair with a smile and called out “Pearl” emotionally.
She felt goosebumps forming all over her body upon seeing the disgusting man.
Pearl’s expression turned cold before turning her head. “Who let him in?”
“I apologize, Ms. Woolery. It was due to our negligence. I will handle it immediately!
The general manager’s assistant, Mason Turner, apologized and called for security to take away Manfred forcibly.
Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Manfred immediately stood up from the chair and walked i matter, Pearl! I just arrived, and you want to chase me away!”

He spoke with a nasal tone, acting all girly like a big, tough guy trying to act cute. It was unknown if Tina fell for this kind of thing, but Pearl had no other thoughts except us kick him out
“Three years passed, and this man has become even more cheesy, she thought to herself.
As Manfred approached her. Pearl frowned and said coldly, “Stay away from me!
Manfred couldn’t help but feel cibarrassed when Pearl said this,

He stood three steps away from Pearl gazing at her extraordinarily beautiful face. He couldn’t help but find her extremely charming and irresistible.
The Day family and the Woolery family had been lifelong friends. Pearl and Manfred practically grew up together, like childhood sweethearts. Pearl was the most beautiful among the Woolery family’s three daughters. She had always been a beauty since she was young.
It was commonly said that women would go through a transformation at the age of eighteen. Those who were pretty when they were little might not be pretty anymore when they grew up. However, this was not the case with Pearl, who not only retained her beauty but blossomed even more. Shedding her baby fat, she had evolved from an adorable and playful child into an exquisite and lively young woman. Her figure had also become sexier. Furthermore, she now exuded a hint of laziness and charm. Just by beholding her, Manfred felt his heart racing and a primal urge to conquer and devour her.
“Pearl. I know you have some misunderstandings about me. I’m here today to explain what happened back then.”
Manfred looked grave and solemn, especially after the security guard arrived. He said with a serious face, “I’m serious! That incident back then was all planned by Tina. She deceived me into doing it!”
Pearl looked at him coldly and knew he wouldn’t speak the truth. But when he tried to blame everything on Tina, Pearl was curious to hear what more lies he could come up with
She waved her hand for the security guard and assistant to step back. “Leave us alone.”
