Chapter 191 David came to the office on the thirty-sixth floor. Then, he sat in the general manager’s
office and listened to Pearl recount the situation to him.
However, Pearl hid the fact that Gunther was trying to take her to bed. She only said that he wanted
them to sell the land to him at half the price.
David actually thought it did not matter, and he actually wanted to sell it at half off!
What he wanted was not to make money, so it did not matter if he lost out or made a profit. He only
wanted the lavish points.
As long as he spent the money and got the lavish points, everything else was trivial.
However, doing so seemed to be a bit of a blow to Pearl and the others’ confidence.
Plus, he would also create p a cowardly image of himself. If word about this got out, everyone would
line up to bully him so how would Pearl continue to work in Springfield?
How would the East League Capitals continue to grow?
What was the point of even having the system if he continued to live so cowardly?
Hence, he had to give the opponent a strong counterattack on this matter.
He had to teach the other party a lesson to make them an example to others.
Also, it would give East League Capitals some prestige in Springfield and make Pearl’s job much
easier.
“Miss Pearl, make an appointment with the landlord and schedule a meeting with that Gunther person
from Prosperity Properties. I will buy the building first and then go to see him,” David said.
“Okay, Mr. Lidell,” Pearl replied.
Then, she started making calls.
However, the landlord of this office building was busy for the time being.
Hence, David had to meet Gunther from Prosperity Properties first.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPearl called Gunther again.
“Miss Warner, have you thought it through? If you knew it would come to this, so you shouldn’t have
done that in the first place. You’re just upsetting everyone. See? You still have t o obey me at the end
of the day,” Gunther said in a lazy voice.
He felt that Pearl must have heard about his identity and background and was now taking the initiative
to call him to apologize.
“Gunther, my boss is here, and he wants to see you,” Pearl said bluntly.
“Oh? Your boss is here? What a coincidence, I’ve wanted to meet your mysterious boss for a long time.
Once your boss agrees, I want to see how you’ll escape from me. Wash up and wait for me,” Gunther
said teasingly over the phone.
Pearl did not respond to Gunther’s teasing.
In the end, the two parties made an appointment to meet in a teahouse.
Pearl had just hung up on Gunther when Rhonda pushed open the door and walked in.
“Rhonnie! What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you to wait outside? I’m talking to the boss,” Pearl said
to Rhonda as the latter walked in.
She did not expect Rhonda to suddenly push the door open and come in.
“I came in to see the man that my Pearly was thinking about all the time. I want to see what kind of
charm he has that’s able to fascinate you,” Rhonda said with a smile.
“Rhonnie, what nonsense are you talking about? It’s my boss you’re talking about, get out now! We’re
talking business,” Pearl said as she pushed Rhonda out.
“How am I talking nonsense? Pearly, you often call out his name in your dreams. Oh, this upsets me so
much. You’re calling another man’s name when you’re with me.”
“Rhonnie!” Pearl exclaimed with a flushed face and slightly red eyes.
Rhonnie had actually said such a thing in front of David and had embarrassed her completely. How
would she face David in the future?
She wanted so badly to jump down from the 36th floor.
Rhonda also felt that the joke went overboard and quickly said, “I was just kidding. It’s all a joke. Um…
your name is David, right? I was just joking, don’t take it seriously.”
David was also a little dumbfounded at this time.
He noticed this woman named Rhonda right from the start.
This woman was unique, and it was as if she was exuding a kind of magic that attracted the attention of
men.
Her figure was even better than Pearl’s.
“Miss Pearl, who is this?” David asked as if he had not heard their conversation.
“Mr. Lidell, this is Rhonda Rogers, my classmate from university and also my best friend,” Pearl also
recomposed herself and replied.
“Hi, Miss Rogers. Thank you for taking care of Miss Pearl in Springfield,” David said magnanimously to
Rhonda.
“You still have a little conscience, but you don’t have to thank me. Pearly is closer to me than you and
we have known each other from way back then, so it is only right I take care of her.” Rhonda said.
“Anyway, I still have to thank you. Miss Rogers, when are you free? I’ll treat you to a meal!”
“No need. You should solve Pearly’s problem quickly. She has been so down these days. If you didn’t
come, she would have been forced into bed by that Gunther person!”
After hearing Rhonda say this, David looked at Pearl and asked, “Miss Pearl, what’s going on?”
“N-Nothing, Mr. Lidell.”
“Tell me,” David said flatly.
David’s tone made Pearl feel as if she could not reject him.
Even Rhonda noticed the change in David’s attitude. The moment she finished speaking, she clearly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfelt a cold light sweeping over her.
David doesn’t seem like an ordinary person.’
Only then did she start looking at David seriously.
After David heard what Pearl said, his whole body was seething with rage.
Originally, he thought that Gunther was only seeking money, and if that was the case, they could still
discuss it. Wasn’t it just money? He had a lot of it anyway.
However, now the other party dared to foster bad intentions toward Pearl. He was obviously courting
death.
He was a little fortunate now that he had sent Wayne and Gordon to protect Pearl, otherwise, the
consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Mr. Lidell, I didn’t suffer since I was protected by Wayne and Gordon. On the contrary, several of
Gunther’s bodyguards were knocked to the ground by Wayne and Gordon,” Pearl said in a low voice.
“Miss Pearl, in the future, I hope you can report to me in time. If Wayne and Gordon were just a few
days late, could you imagine the consequences? What could I change even if I cut Gunther into eight
pieces?”
“I-I got it, Mr. Lidell. Are we still going to see Gunther then?”
“Of course, why not? Since he dares to do this, he should be prepared to pay the price,” David said in a
calm tone.
“Mr. Lidell, I didn’t suffer and Gunther’s background is very strong. We are not from Springfield after all,
so let’s forget it!”
After David finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the window. Then, he said, “Is he? I would
like to see how strong he is to have the balls to mess with my people.”
At this moment, Pearl looked at David’s back in a daze.
This was the man she admired, and he dared to become enemies with everyone for her.
Rhonda was also stunned at this moment.
When David spoke, it made her feel like he was looking down on the world.
How could someone so young make her feel this way? It was so incredible!
