Chapter 334
Hearing the suggestion that they would share the bed made Pearl’s face flush with embarrassment.
She shot a glare at Richard. “Fine, then leave.”
Richard turned his face away casually. “No.”
“I’ll prepare the guest room for you.” Pearl beamed.
“I’ve grown quite fond of your bed. It refuses to let me go,” Richard replied, shaking his head playfully.
Pearl’s lips twitched. “Try talking to it and see if it responds.”
Richard sat on the bed and leaned forward, teasing, “Are you willing to let me go?”
To Pearl’s amazement, the bed was jolted three times, producing loud creaks.
Richard continued, “Do you want to let me sleep with Pearl?”
Once again, the bed was shaken, and the creaking sounds grew louder.
Richard shrugged. “See? I told you, the bed wants me to stay with you. Otherwise, it gets upset.

“You’re behaving like a child, Richard.” Pearl rolled her eyes.
“And if you sleep alone, monsters will crawl out from under your bed and stare at you you sleep-”
Richard started trying a different approach.
Pearl slapped his head. “I’m not afraid of monsters!”
“But I am, I don’t want to sleep alone.” Richard looked sadly at her.
while
Pearl raised an eyebrow, puzzled. “Who are you trying to scare, then?” Seeing how adamant he was,
she eventually relented. She pointed at him and declared, “Fine, you can sleep here, but you sleep on
the floor, and I’ll take the bed.”
Richard opened his mouth to respond, but before he could say anything, Pearl gave him a
out!” stern look. “And if you try to sneak into my bed, I’ll kick you
With Pearl’s scent on the bed, Richard didn’t want to leave it. He agreed to sleep on the floor, as long
as he could be in the same room as Pearl.
That night, Pearl couldn’t sleep well. It was her first time alone in a room with a man, and she felt
nervous and uneasy. In contrast, Richard slept soundly, seemingly undisturbed by the situation.
After a night of restless sleep, Pearl looked at Richard with dark circles under her eyes. He observed
her for a moment and asked, “Did you have trouble sleeping last night?”
“All thanks to you.” Pearl yawned and sounded annoyed.
Their conversation caught the attention of a passing butler, who almost slipped in astonishment.
Pearl noticed the butler’s shocked expression and knew he must have misunderstood the situation.
She quickly clarified, “It’s not what you think!”
Richard, however, remained composed and looked at the butler with a smile. “Don’t be embarrassed. I
won’t bring it up again.”

The butler stammered, “Didn’t I prepare the guest room for Mister Richard? Why…” He started shaking
because Ezra asked them to sleep in separate rooms, yet they ended up sleeping together.
“Richard, you had the guest room for yourself, right?” Pearl’s eyes were filled with rage.
Richard moved his wrist around and said with a neutral expression, “The guest room bed is too hard. I
don’t like it.”
Pearl couldn’t fathom what kind of bed would be considered harder than the floor. She
clenched her jaw, her irritation growing. “You’re quite talented at making excuses, aren’t you?
“I
Richard chuckled and teased, “I know I am, but there are other people present, so let’s not discuss it
further.” He glanced discreetly at the butler, who wore an awkward smile while breaking out in a cold
sweat.
