Chapter 376
‘So that’s why…’
Jenny and Richard had both left for Hazelton, and Pearl’s world suddenly grew quiet. She decided to
apply for leave and moved to Brilliance.
Clem looked at her curiously. “What brings you here? You’ve never managed Brilliance before, and
you’ve been focused on Richard and Waldorf Enterprises.”
Pearl chuckled at being called out. “My mind is clear now.”
Clem got down to business. “By the way, about the series I mentioned last time, we’ve signed it, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfilming will start soon.”
Pearl nodded. “Keep an eye on it.”
Clem hesitated, then added, “But there was a condition.”
“What condition?”
Clem wasn’t sure how Pearl would react, but he had to share it for the sake of the project’s success.
“They said… I have to bring you along for them to agree to work with us.”
Pearl felt a sudden headache coming on. “Who is that person?”
“The president of NK Group, Raymond York”
Pearl was frustrated. Raymond York was a constant thorn in her side.
She slammed the desk angrily. “He’s such a nuisance!”
Clem was relieved that Pearl knew him. “I’m glad you’re familiar with him.”
“We don’t only know each other, we’re enemies.” She emphasized on the last word.
If Raymond knew she left Enswood and was now in Brilliance, it meant Ezra knew about that too. But
why didn’t he send someone to capture her?
Clem carefully asked, “So, what’s your plan? Will you go?”
Pearl’s mind was a blur, but she saw how enthusiastic Clem was about this partnership, so she
reluctantly agreed. “Yes.” Clem was overjoyed. “We should get some rest. If filming starts tomorrow,
we’ll be heading to Hazelton.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘Hazelton?’ Images of Richard and Jenny crossed Pearl’s mind.
“Yes, that’s where the shooting will take place,” Clem confirmed.
Pearl couldn’t back out now, so she simply nodded and went along with the plan.
As she boarded the plane, Esther took the seat next to Pearl, while Hanzel sat behind them, looking
rather gloomy.
“Pearl, I heard this is a great director. I’ve been on his shows once, and he’s really nice. All the shows
he’s worked on turned out great!” Esther excitedly shared, talking like a little bird.
Pearl nodded since she had also heard positive things about the director. She smiled and added,
“Jenny Sullivan will be at the same location where we’re headed. She’s filming a different series.”
Esther felt annoyed when Jenny was mentioned, recalling what Pearl had said.
Pearl’s hand froze. “What’s wrong with her?”
“Nothing, I just don’t like her. She’s a snake,” Esther bluntly stated, forgetting her surroundings.
Fortunately, they were in first class, so only Hanzel and Clem overheard that.
