Chapter 502
Pearl did not want to take advantage of the director, so she suggested calmly, “I’ll buy it from you at the original price.”
A sigh of relief escaped the director. In short, he would regain his funds.
“Okay, you can leave now. I’ll ask someone to come to you to sign the contract tomorrow. If you break your word…”
“No, I’ll wait for that person at any time.”
After saying some nice words, the director wiped away his sweat and left in a fluster. He found that he could not afford to provoke Pearl. It was a great loss that he had provoked such a big shot for Jenny’s sake.
Since the issue was resolved, Pearl said nothing much and dismissed the people around her. She was about to leave with Feather when Camden stopped her.
“It’s been a while since we last met. How about we go somewhere else to chat?” he said.
Pearl frowned. “We aren’t that close, are we?”
“Well, I know you probably don’t take someone like me seriously, but I’d like to treat you to a meal to repay your kindness.”
Their relationship was neither close nor distant. She had bought him a meal when he was in a tough spot. Back then, he had been young and proud, refusing to take a single bite of the pasta she had bought for him.
“I don’t take free meals.‘
“But you’re starving. Don’t say that nonsense. You can repay me after you eat it.”
Pearl was young at that time and was amused by his actions.
“What’s your name? I’ll repay you in the future.‘
Pearl raised the hem of her dress and smiled. “I’m Pearl Leighton. We’ll meet again if it’s written in the stars. No rush.”

Pearl’s l*ps twitched. “So, you’re the one who’s been depositing money into my account over the years?”
Camden avoided her question, his gaze slightly uneasy.
“Forget it. It looks like you’ve done quite well with yourself. A few hundred thousand dollars in today’s economy is hardly worth mentioning. I won’t make a fuss about it.”
She took the money and lied about it.
Observing her actions, Camden found her very interesting. Unfortunately, she had a fiance…
“Yes, you can treat me to a meal, but I’m already full tonight. There’s no need to go for anything fancy. Let’s just have some pasta. And please, no more random deposits into my account. I don’t want people to think you’re my sugar daddy.”
Ending things with a plate of pasta seemed fitting, considering that uney

Pearl nodded. “Okay, Fifi. You can go back on your own. And watch the house for me.”
Feather, under Pearl’s command, had no intentions of intruding on their evening or pondering whether it was appropriate for them to be alone together, or whether Richard would be upset if he found out…
Camden leaped onto his motocross and handed a helmet to Pearl. “Here. Get on.”
After a moment’s hesitation, Pearl accepted the helmet and mounted the motocross behind Camden. Sitting behind him, she placed her hands around his waist. She told herself it was because she was worried about falling off.
After they were gone, Feather went home alone. However, she spotted a black Maybach parked outside the door. It was likely Richard’s.
Anxiety gripped her heart. As expected, she saw Richard sitting upright on the sofa after she entered the house.
He exuded a cold aura, and he sounded aloof.
