My Ex-Husband Wants Me Again novel Chapter 9

Pearl spent the morning inspecting the various departments. She had a career now and Marc was in the past.

The Woolery Group began as a luxury jewelry brand. Ken was the founder and later expanded the business into various sectors. The group dominated Nanston once. Woolery Jewelry was also the designated retail partner for Diamonto, the world's largest diamond trading company, and the exclusive diamond merchant for Ridge International Mining, an international mining company.

Only the Males Group in Machodean was on par with the Woolery Group. Both steered clear of each other.

Employees pretended to work diligently while occasionally peeking at Pearl. "Wow! Ms. Woolery has a great figure," one of them remarked.

Pearl wore a navy blue suit-style jumpsuit, which highlighted her graceful figure. She appeared both mature and beautiful.

One of the employees couldn't help but discreetly photographed Pearl from behind and posted it online. She remarked, "Even her back makes us want to bow to her." The employee was an internet celebrity on Instagram with over 200,000 followers and loved to show off. Her post immediately garnered much attention.

Comments overflowed with praises. "Wow. Is this real? She looks like a celebrity."

Another remarked, "I'm gonna send my job application to them now. Can't wait to meet her."

Pearl entered her office in her high heels. Samuel followed, closing the door.

Pearl collapsed on the couch, checking her aching feet.

Samuel laughed. "You walked plenty today. They must hurt."

Pearl sighed. "Everything is in chaos. I have to press on."

Samuel took out a medical kit and approached her. "No need before me. Let me help you." He knelt on the carpet, removed her high heels, and gently treated her blisters.

Pearl was surprised. It had been long since anyone cared for her. When she shook herself from her thoughts, Samuel was done. He also found her a pair of flats.

Pearl chuckled. "You're good. Thanks. You must have courted many girls."

Samuel smiled, not replying. He blew on her feet, making Pearl's toes curl. Pearl frowned, pulling her feet back. "That tickles. Let them dry themselves."

Pearl's feet were small and slender, but her toes were plump, which made them look cute. Samuel smiled warmly. "It's great that you're back."

Sitting cross-legged, Pearl avoided his gaze and changed the topic. "It's not good that I've to clean up the mess."
