Chapter 648


    Pearl got back to her room to avoid further distractions. She immediately powered up her tablet and


    started searching for information about Owen Adley.


    C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    [Owen Adley, male, 28 years old. Into horse racing, golf, nightlife, and drinking.]


    Golf was fine, but horse racing…? Wouldn’t his bulky body, looking like over 200 pounds, crush the


    poor horse?


    But that wasn’t her concern. The information mentioned that on weekends, usually the next day, he’d


    head to the racecourse to hang out with ady. They’d then ride together, venture into the woods at the


    racecourse, and typicallye back after an hour. What they did during that time was self–


    exnatory.


    A chill ran down Pearl’s spine, but she pushed aside the goosebumps and kept reading.


    Owen happened to have time to be there this weekend. In other words, all she had to do was be


    an employee at the racecourse he frequented. If he chose her, she couldplete the mission.


    This seemed like a good n to her.


    Without wasting time, she directly asked Zinedine for a day off, nning to visit the


    racecourse tomorrow to check if she could work part–time.


    Pearl slept through the night. Not having to work in the nightclub, she had no obligation to wake up at


    night.


    However, a knock on the door annoyed her.


    “Who is it?”


    “It’s me.” Hugo’s warm voice came, immediately dispelling Pearl’s morning grumpiness.


    “I just woke up. Will you please leave me alone?”


    “Would you like toe with me for tomorrow’s Fashion Week? I can get you an invitation.” Hugo


    ‘Fashion Week?‘ Pearl’s eyes lit up instantly, forgetting all about her grumpiness. She opened the door


    and asked, “Really?”


    “Of course.” Hugo nodded, then nced around. “But you have to do as I say.”


    “Why should I?” Pearl’s excitement deted.


    “Because I’m the one with the invitation.” Hugo raised the envelope triumphantly. “You’ll pretend to be


    mypanion, and we’ll show up together.”


    “If that’s the case, won’t I just be your pawn?” Pearl thought about bing an unwitting tool to anger


    Jenny and felt ufortable.


    Jenny was attending this Fashion Week. If he forced her to be hispanion, it was probably to irritate


    Jenny. Judging by his attitude, he seemed to be holding a grudge for not getting ahead and was likely


    harboring some resentment.

    Hugo rubbed his chin and chuckled. “You’re pretty smart.”


    “Go away!” Pearl mmed the door.


    Lying on the bed and staring at the information on the tablet beside her, Pearl hesitated for about a split


    second, then decisively chose to give in.
