Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 706

Pearl's eyes welled up with tears.

Blake gently touched her forehead, feeling sympathy for her. "Alright, no need to get so emotional."

"I'm not emotional. There's just something in my eye," Pearl said, wiping away a tear as she scolded him with a laugh.

"Fine, fine. I won't argue with you about it." Blake shrugged helplessly.

Raymond redirected the conversation back to business. "So, how's your company doing?"

Pearl's expression soured when her company was mentioned. "Cerubleu is in debt for 41 million dollars because one company claimed our products were subpar and canceled our contract. Additionally, all the Enswood companies terminated their cooperation with us. It's become impossible for us to make ends meet."

Blake couldn't hold back his frustration and cursed, "Those b*stards! I bet they're all lackeys of Lawson Enterprises!"

"Richard didn't come to your aid even in such dire straits. It's clear he doesn't care much about you," Raymond remarked suddenly.

Pearl lowered her head and spoke calmly, "There's nothing between us anymore."

Raymond realised he had touched a sensitive nerve and stopped discussing the topic. He tried to offer some comfort. "Alright, take some rest for now. If you trust me, let me handle your company."

"You guys came to help me when my company was in such a bad state. Of course, I trust you." Pearl then glanced at Wayne. "Raymond will be the acting president from now on. Follow his instructions in the company."

"Sure." Wayne recognized Raymond's competence and didn't object. He nodded in agreement.

However, Blake frowned in dissatisfaction. "What about me? I came here to help you. I want to contribute too!"
