Chapter 520


    It was the first time Pearl had met Richard’s legendary best buddy, Justin. She had heard that he was a


    He didn’t lock any less impressive than Mobius, especially with his tall nose bridge and stylish gold–


    rimmed sses, which added to his charm. Unfortunately for Justin, he wasn’t Pearl’s type.


    However, Justin’s image quickly crumbled the moment he started talking. “Why do I feel like this


    meeting won’t bring me anything good, Richard?” His frown made him look almost teary -eyed,


    Pearl couldn’t help but chuckle. “I’ll invest 680 thousand dors in yourw firm.”


    Immediately, Justin’s eyes lit up. “Really? Don’t break your word.”


    “Of course not.” Pearl continued smiling. “What’s wrong? Didn’t Mister Joseph Newton give you


    money? Why are you so poor?”


    Justin’s earlier demeanor waspletely gone as he exined, “You see, I’m the only grandson of the


    Newton family, and my grandfather wants me to inherit the family business. But I’ve always wanted to


    be awyer. So, I’m rather short on funds, and I can only rely on Rick.”


    “Couldn’t youe up with another solution?”


    “I did consider selling Newton Group to Waldorf Enterprises in exchange for capital to manage myw

    firm. But when I mentioned it to Grandpa, he got so angry that he threatened to set myw firm on fire.


    So, I stopped bringing it up.”


    Pearl couldn’t help but think Justin was silly and naive. Thankfully, Esther wasn’t interested in him;


    otherwise, she might feel like stabbing him.

    After a brief chat, the four of them entered the restaurant.


    On the surface, it looked like they were on a blind date, with Pearl and Richard ying the roles of


    chaperones. Justin appeared smitten with Esther, who blushed and seemed content with hispany.


    Pearl nced at Richard. “Why isn’t he here yet?”


    Richard cleared his throat and gave her a knowing look. “I guess he hasn’t seen any signs of intimacy


    between them. They need to make it more convincing.”


    Pearl decided to give Esther a subtle hint. Esther stood up and reached for Justin’s hand.


    “Esther!” came an angry roar that stopped her.


    Mobius approached, his cold demeanor radiating intensity, and he held Esther’s hand tightly while


    giving Justin a fierce re. “Why did you go on a blind date behind my back? Did you forget who your


    boyfriend is?”


    Justin trembled and lost his smile. He couldn’t understand why Mobius was ring at him like that. He


    was only doing it for the money and had no romantic interest in Esther whatsoever. Moreover, Richard


    had talked him into it with a promise.

    Mobius appeared ready to punch Justin in the face, causing thetter to close his eyes in fear, fearing


    his handsome face would be ruined and he’d no longer be able to attract women.


    But the anticipated punch never came. Justin cautiously opened his eyes and saw that Richard had


    blocked Mobius’s punch.


    Angry, Richard demanded, “You’re not marrying her. Why do you care who she’s marrying?”


    Mobius roared furiously, “Who said I’m not marrying her?”


    “When?” Richard asked.


    Mobius looked at Esther’s cautious expression, and his heart skipped a beat. “I can marry her anytime


    she wants.”


    Pearl grinned. “Okay, mission aplished. Let’s celebrate!”


    Richard smiled as well. However, Justin wiped away his cold sweat; he was not thrilled at all. It was at


    that moment that Mobius realized it had all been a setup.
