Chapter 241


    “How would that not count, Pea? I might need some of those resourcester…” Sophia almost broke


    her teeth from gritting too hard. If it weren’t for Pearl’s connections and resources, why would she even


    be nice to her? She would have just walked


    away.


    “Oh? You can’t get in touch with certain people? You, who graduated from Enswood’s best university,


    are so clever and talented. How could that be?” Pearl tilted her head yfully, emphasizing ‘the best


    university in Enswood.’


    Sophia was too embarrassed to speak, so she just red at her before storming off angrily.


    “Bravo, Pea. This woman always pretends to be vulnerable to gain sympathy, but everyone knows how


    she really is. If she wasn’t the design director, no one would even look at her.”


    Pearl received admiring looks from her colleagues after sessfully sending Sophia away.


    “Oh? That’s how she usually is?” Pearl was intrigued.


    Her colleague nced around to ensure nob*dy was eavesdropping and then whispered, “Sophia is


    from Sanders Group. She always pretends to be innocent and adorable but orders people around. She


    would flirt with our male colleagues while undermining the women. She is so two-faced no one really


    likes her, except those who couldn’t resist her flirting.”

    Pearl nodded and wasn’t surprised. Sophia was a menace, and since everyone knew that, she was


    relieved.


    Just as Pearl thought the world was calm and she could focus on work, a loud voice broke the silence.


    “Who is Pearl Leighton? I want to see the person who seduced my husband in the office.”


    Pearl slowly stood up after hearing her name and spotted a woman in her thirties. She calmly asked,


    “I’m Pearl. How can I help?”


    The woman saw Pearl’s delicate features and elegant demeanor, freezing momentarily before jealousy


    surged within her.” You’re Pearl? You b*tch. Why did you seduce my husband?”


    “First of all, I didn’t seduce your husband, and secondly, I don’t even know who your husband is. Are


    you sure you have the right person?” Pearl was genuinely puzzled by the usation but maintained


    her polite tone.


    Seeing Pearl pretend to be innocent infuriated the woman, who charged forward, attempting to rip


    Pearl’s clothes apart. “I’ll expose your lies. My husband hasn’te home for days, yet you’re


    pretending to be an innocent flower here. I’ll tear your clothes apart to reveal your true colors!”


    Pearl, skilled in self-defense, prevented the woman from getting close. She immobilized her by holding


    her wrists firmly.


    Unable to get her hands on Pearl, the woman eventually copsed to the floor, sobbing uncontrobly.


    “Why is the side piece bullying the wife? Where’s the justice?”


    The surrounding chatter grew louder, with people using Pearl of stealing someone’s husband.


    Sophia watched from a corner, her l*ps curling into a sinister smile. She was excited to see how Pearl


    would get herself out of


    this!
