Chapter 354
Blake knew Ezra very well, and he was aware of the risks involved in Pearl’s plan. He also recognized
that Pearl’s actions might even infuriate Ezra.
Smirking, Pearl said, “I’ve thought it through. Although he’s forbidden me from returning to Enswood,
he can’t keep an eye on me all the time. You can tell him that Glenn has borrowed your helicopter for
some fun. When Master Ezra asks about me, just say that I’ve been staying here with you.”
Pearl was the only one who could come up with such a bold idea.
Heaving a sigh, Blake commented, “I don’t know who you take after. You’re so stubborn and willful.”
Stunned, Pearl tried to figure that out. Her father, James, had always been gentle and had a knack for
mediating conflicts when he was in town. It led her to believe that she might have inherited her
mother’s fiery temper.
“Stop hesitating, Blake. It’s a deal!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBlake agreed, even though it would be the first time he had ever told such a big lie to Ezra. Yet, he felt
surprisingly calm, almost exhilarated by the thrill of doing something forbidden.
Coincidentally, Blake’s helicopter was at Glenn’s place, so Pearl headed there.
When Glenn saw Pearl, a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes. “Blake just called me. Are you planning
to sneak back to Enswood on this private helicopter?”
“Yeah, I haven’t been back there in a long time, and I miss the people and things there,” Pearl replied
eagerly, eager to return to Richard as quickly as possible.
Glenn couldn’t help but chuckle. “You don’t need to explain. I know it must be because of Richard.”
Acknowledging it, Pearl smiled at Glenn. “Yes, absence does make the heart grow fonder.”
“Mhm, you’re right,” Glenn agreed, but a trace of sadness clouded his gaze as he stared at the fallen
leaves on the ground.
Sensing that something might be bothering him, Pearl decided not to press further. “Alright, I won’t
keep you any longer. Bye.”
After getting the private helicopter, she was about to leave.
“Pearl,” suddenly Glenn stopped her. She turned around abruptly, her charming face a
painting in his eyes.
He wanted to ask if she would have fallen in love with him had he met her first, but the words wouldn’t
come out. Instead, he simply said, “Call me if you need anything. Safe travels.”
He had resolved to be her friend and offer help whenever she needed it.
“Okay, bye!”
Unaware of this, Pearl continued on her way, not noticing the usually bright and optimistic Glens had
suddenly become melancholic behind her.
A few hours later, Pearl landed at the Cerubleu headquarters. She had acquired a flying license while
abroad and was quite skilled at flying.
Wayne had suggested throwing a welcome party for Pearl, as he had learned of her return. However,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPearl brushed off the idea and headed straight for Waldorf Enterprises, wanting to surprise Richard.
What she encountered when she opened the door to the president’s office, however, left her
momentarily speechless. She hadn’t expected to find another woman there.
She managed to stammer, “Richard, what a surprise!” It was beyond her imagination that the woman
that she was worried about finally appeared.
Jenny, Richard’s first love, was seated near him, playfully holding onto his arm. On the other hand, the
man Pearl had been yearning for appeared visibly annoyed and gloomy.
Upon seeing Pearl unexpectedly, Richard pushed Jenny away, who had been clinging to him, and
rushed over to hug Pearl. “You’re back!”
Pearl purposely hugged him tightly and teased, “Yeah, I came back to see how you fool around with a
vixen behind my back.”
