Chapter 654
After bidding Hugo goodbye, Pearl confidently walked over to Owen and pretended to say in an
unnatural tone, “Gosh, that pink outfit is really annoying.”
She immediately noticed that Owen was looking at her with curiosity. She had done her research and
found out that Owen disliked pink, especially light pink.
There were rumors that he would have trouble breathing if he wore pink clothes. Although it was just a
rumor, it seemed clear that he didn’t like pink.

Hearing this, Owen walked over to her and asked politely, “Miss, do you also hate this pink outfit?”
Just as she expected, he fell right into her trap.
Pearl nodded, feeling a bit sorry for him. “Yes, I didn’t expect this. I liked the previous outfits, but this
one is just not my taste.”
“Well, it seems we share the same taste. I also don’t like pink, especially the light shade.”
Pearl could hold a conversation well in Ealdasy. If one didn’t know her, they might think she was a
Crieque who had lived abroad for a long time.
Owen began to admire Pearl, not just for her looks, but because they had the same taste. Despite his
less–than–ideal reputation, he was cultured, having grown up in the Adley family.
For the first time, he had no impure thoughts about a beautiful woman. All he felt for Pearl was
admiration. “Would you allow me the privilege of taking you out for a meal?”
Pearl hesitated, wanting to appear reserved, but she didn’t refuse because she worried he might lose
interest suddenly. “Sure, but I have plans for tonight. Can we meet up tomorrow?”
She was indirectly asking for his contact information.
Enlightened, Owen pulled out his business card and handed it to her. “Here’s my contact. Give me a

Pearl played her part well, knowing she had successfully piqued his interest when he looked
disappointed. “Of course, I’ll call you.”
She took his business card carefully and put it in her bag. Then, she pretended to notice her best
friends not too far away and acted surprised. “Oh, my friends are waiting for me over there. I should go
and talk to them.”
Owen looked in the same direction and saw a group of seemingly important men. But he couldn’t show
his displeasure,
“Why don’t you tell me your name and number instead? I’ll call you,” he suggested, not wanting her to
forget about him.
Pearl smiled. “Sure.”
She had successfully lured him into her trap.
