Chapter 247


    Although Pearl’s expression was a little odd, Richard assumed she probably liked the gesture. Her


    current reaction might simply be because she hadn’t fully grasped what had happened, and he


    expected her to soon embrace him with excitement.


    With that belief in mind, he said, “I’m d you like it. I’ll send two trucks next time.”


    Pearl’s smile immediately faded. “It’s nice that you’re doing this, but please don’t do it again.”


    Richard was confused. “Why? I thought you liked it?”


    “Richard, what are you going to do with so many roses?”


    He didn’t have an answer for that. “Throw them away?”


    Pearl rolled her eyes. “You’re going to throw away so many flowers? Are you bad with finances,


    Richard?”


    He understood her point, so he took a card from his wallet and handed it to her. “All the money I have is


    on this card. Now that you’re my girlfriend, I’ll let you handle it.”


    Pearl was shocked as she stared at the card, still warm from his hand. She didn’t know how to react.


    “I don’t want your card.”


    “Keep it. One day, Waldorf Enterprises will be ours,” He didn’t say that loudly, but everyone around


    could hear it clearly.


    “Did you hear that? He’s so romantic!” N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    “It’s not that weird.”


    “I guess I realized I don’t love money, but the way to my heart requires money.”


    “When will I meet a man like this…”


    “Tsk. Keep dreaming!”


    Richard heard the chatter and smiled. Pearl was likely thinking along the same lines, and he found it


    touching.


    In reality, Pearl found it awkward.


    “We could give the flowers to the employees,” she suggested, looking at the crowd.


    Richard didn’t say anything, but the people were very excited.


    “Thank you, Missus President!”


    Richard was ted to hear people call her that.


    A group of employees swarmed over to grab some roses, while Pearl and Richard stood there


    discussing their ns.


    “Should we visit Mister Dustan at the hospital next?” Pearl asked.


    Richard shook his head. “No. Sean already went and said he’ll take care of Dad.”


    “Sean?” Pearl never thought the cold and sharp-tongued Sean would do that.


    “Yes. I thought he was going on a holiday, but he has matured.” Richard no longer sounded tired when


    he talked about Sean.” I’ll take over his work so he can focus on looking after the family.”


    Sean had stood up for Pearl during the meeting today, passed his position to her, and was now taking


    care of his father. It was a sign of his growth.


    “Where are we going next then? Back home?”


    Richard’s eyes narrowed. “To see Hugo and find out the truth.”
