FreeNovelChapter 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.

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

in someone else’s relationship.
“Why are you so concerned about Richard? Did he give you something good?” Pearl raised an
eyebrow, curious about Blake’s unexpected interest.
Blake’s lips twitched. “Can’t you see it in a positive light, Pearl?”
Confused, Pearl tilted her head and asked, “Ugh, are you in love with him?”
For a moment, Blake was at a loss for words, then eventually chose to stay silent on the matter.
Despite this, he did encourage Pearl to return to Enswood.
After bidding Blake farewell, Pearl headed to Bodgow Airport alone. After purchasing her ticket and
waiting at the boarding gate, she was approached by members of the Jordan family’s staff, who had
tracked her down.
The family’s butler stepped forward, wiping his brow nervously. “Miss Pearl, please stop running
around. Come back with me, if you will.”
