Chapter 544
But he couldn’t prevent Pearl from having this relationship. After all, it was her past, and he showed up too late.
Pearl suddenly stopped, walked up to the desk, picked up his phone, and took a glance. Then she froze.
In the photos, she was brimming with affection for Damian. How did Richard get these photos?
Pearl gritted her teeth, clearly infuriated. “These are clearly from the past. What could he possibly threaten you with?”
Listening to this, Richard shook his head helplessly. “Keep swiping.”
Pearl continued swiping through the photos and found recent pictures of her and Damian at a bar, sipping drinks in the dimly lit surroundings.
“He said these were enough to prove your disloyalty in our relationship. But I know you’re not like that, so I agreed to his terms.”
With that, he stepped forward and put his arm around her shoulder. “Don’t dwell on it. Losing a company is nothing compared to you.”
Pearl’s heart was in turmoil, and she was speechless. She knew Richard did it for her sake, but she hadn’t expected him to go this far.
She was overwhelmed, and tears welled up in her eyes. “Thank you, Rick.”
This was the first time she had called Richard so affectionately. A warm feeling surged through Richard, dissolving the frosty expression on his face.

Richard shook his head. “Not yet. I was planning to meet Jenny and give this to her.”
“I’ll take care of this. Don’t give her the contract yet.”
Richard frowned. “What are you planning to do?”
Pearl smirked. “Didn’t they come and provoke me first? Since they did such a thing, I’ll return it exactly as it is.”

Pearl turned her head and asked, “Is there any blank page in the contract? Let’s take it with us. I want to see if Jenny dares to sign it today.”
The two arranged to meet Jenny at an open–air seaside restaurant.
There was a dazzling array of seafood on the table. Richard gazed at the woman before him with disgust in his eyes.
“Rick, I assume you’ve learned about the matter I discussed with Hughie, right?” Jenny stroked her hair as if she was holding the winning ticket.
