Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1365

Richard remembered feeling cold and distant when he was young. He thought Darius must have picked that up from his mother.

"So, you need to pass my test if you want to be with my mom."

Richard drove calmly, not really worried about Darius's challenge but curious about what he'd say next.

"I'm listening."

"How much do you earn?"

Richard paused for a moment. "I don't earn a salary."

Darius was shocked. "What? You don't have a salary? How will you take care of your family? Do you plan to depend on your wife?" While saying this, he looked at Richard with disapproval.

Richard held back a laugh. "I don't have a salary because I own the company. I pay other people their salaries."

Darius was surprised and then embarrassed. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Isn't it right to answer your questions?"

Darius cleared his throat and quickly asked another question to change the subject. "Have you ever met other women without my mom knowing?"

Richard answered honestly. "Yes, I have."

"What?" Darius had doubted Richard could be a good father if he was unfaithful.

"I've met your grandmothers. Shouldn't I stay in touch with them?"

Darius was young and missed the joke. He felt bad for jumping to conclusions. But it was different from apologizing.
