Chapter 352
“I’m fine. Thanks to Pearl,” Blake reassured Raymond. Given their families’ long-standing friendship and their shared childhood, he found Raymond quite friendly.
Pearl, however, couldn’t hide her disdain and sneered, “If I knew you two were teaming up, I would have added something extra to make you feel even worse!” She had assumed Blake was on her side, only to discover that he was childhood friends with that hypocrite.
Blake grinned slyly, clearly enjoying the situation. “I’d be the first to support Grandfather if he decided to pair you two up!”
His comment earned him incredulous looks from both Pearl and Raymond. Raymond appeared surprised, while Pearl’s gaze was… filled with malice.
“Don’t forget, Blake, I still have control over your treatment. If you keep pushing it, I might accidentally prescribe something that’ll poison you to death,” Pearl threatened.
Blake quickly lowered his voice and hunched his shoulders. “I’m only thinking of you, Pearl. Raymond is filthy rich, and he’s my childhood friend. I can vouch for his character…”
Brandishing a fruit knife, Pearl’s smile was devious. Blake immediately kept quiet upon seeing
the knife.
‘Alright, I’ll take my leave if Pearl doesn’t want me here,” Raymond said, rising to his feet with a serious expression.
Pearl smiled. “Bye.”
Blake watched Raymond’s retreating figure thoughtfully. Finally, he remarked, “I’ve never seen him like that before. In the past, he would have sought vengeance on anyone who dared to bully him.”
Pearl feigned surprise. “Is he a gangster or something?”
Blake rolled his eyes. “I’m just saying, Pearl, I think it’s not good for you to be with Richard.”
“Why’s that?”
Blake let out a sigh. “You know Grandfather doesn’t like Richard. If you two end up together, you’ll face many obstacles, and it won’t be just you suffering.”
Touched by Blake’s concern, Pearl nodded.
“Do you think there’s trouble for Waldorf Enterprises for no reason? You’re smart, Pearl. I’m sure you can figure it out,” Blake continued.
Pearl began to understand more after his advice.
“Listen to Grandfather if you care about what’s best for Richard. Richard’s the one who’s going to struggle in silence.” Even though Blake wasn’t fond of Richard due to his weird temper, he kept his opinions to himself since Richard was genuinely kind to Pearl. Besides, he wasn’t the type to interfere in someone else’s relationship.
