Chapter 698


    The situation in the office was getting more urgent each day. Pearl couldn''t afford any dys, so she took out her phone and


    dialed that familiar number.


    After a couple of rings, someone answered.


    "Hello. How can | help you?" The voice from the other end sounded cold and distant.


    "| have something I''d like to trouble you with—" Pearl began, but before she could finish her words, a colder voice interrupted,


    “Nope.”


    She knew this would be the answer, but it still hurt her.


    "But I—"


    “Rick, guess what delicious food | brought for your lunch today? It''s your favorite roast pork. Give it a try and see if it suits your


    taste." A woman''s voice from the other end cut in.


    Without needing to guess, Pearl immediately knew that this woman must be Richard''s rumored fiancee, Winona.


    "If there''s nothing else, I''ll hang up now." Before Pearl could say much, the call was ruthlessly ended, and the mechanical


    beeping sound reminded her that she truly couldn''t have any contact with him.


    Outside the door, the noise of employees suddenly reached her ears, so she put away her phone. The situation in herpany


    didn''t allow her to sit idly by.


    Even if there was a slim hope, she had to try.


    Since a direct phone call didn''t work, Pearl decided to visit him in the office personally and catch him there.


    Pearl arrived at the front desk of Waldorf Enterprises and asked politely, "I''d like to see your president."


    Pearl wore huge sunsses today. If one didn''t know her well, they wouldn''t recognize her immediately.


    The receptionist had seen Pearl before. With her familiar demeanor, she was surprised. But she still maintained professional


    courtesy, so she smiled and asked, "Do you have an appointment with our president?"


    Pearl looked conflicted. She paused, then took out her phone, showing the receptionist the call record from about an hour ago.


    "Well, he told me toe to the office to see him. But we discussed it over the phone, so there''s no specific record." She was


    very careful with her words, not missing a beat.


    The receptionist seemed convinced. After all, this phone was indeed their president''s personal number. Anyone who could get


    hold of the president''s private number must have an extraordinary identity. Thinking about this, she suddenly felt a sense of


    respect.


    Pearl boldly asked again, "Can | go up to see him now?"


    The receptionist didn''t stop her this time but directly pointed in her direction. "This way, miss. The president''s office is on the


    eighteenth floor."


    Pearl pushed her sunsses and smiled, "Thank you."


    After bidding farewell to the receptionist, she pressed the elevator button for the eighteenth floor.

    floor, and a man over See

    Hearing this voice, the man pretty much confirmed her identity. "Are you okay, Pea?"


    Pearl was slightly stunned when she heard him calling her that name. "You know me?
