Chapter 90
“She doesn’t need your favor”
After that, Raymond stood up. “If you’re unwilling to cooperate with NK, we’ll postpone this for now.
Let’s revisit the discussion when you’re prepared to negotiate another day “With that, he left the private
room.
Sensing Raymond’s annoyance, Pearl nudged Richard’s arm. “Richard, what’s gotten into you? Why
did you speak so rudely? We’re here for negotiations, not to argue with him!”
However, Richard stared at her intensely and only managed to speak after a long while. “Are you
dumb?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStunned, Pearl asked, “Why are you scolding me?”
But Richard got up and left, refusing to clarify his statement to her.
After B
Richard returned to his room, Pearl decided to take a stroll in the garden, preferring not to return to her
room.
As she wandered to a quiet corner, she dialed Brandon’s number.
“Who’s this?” Brandon’s voice sounded weak. At that moment, he felt incredibly unlucky. He had merely
set fire to Waldorf Enterprises, but someone had set fire to his own home while he was asleep in his
room that night. Miraculously, his family of five narrowly escaped death in the blaze.
Unfortunately, his assets had been frozen the following day due to irregularities discovered while he
was still associated with Waldorf Enterprises. Following an investigation, all his assets had been
confiscated.
What infuriated him more was that Lawson Enterprises abandoned him that day too. As a result, his
family was now cramped in a tiny rental apartment. The endless bickering and complaints had left him
emotionally drained.
“Brandon, do you know who I am?” Pearl’s pleasant voice made Brandon realize who she was.
“So even you want to revel in my suffering, Pearl?” Brandon sneered as he took a long drag on his
cigarette.
“You hired someone to violate my dignity. Do you think I’ll let you off the hook?”
Confused, Brandon repeated her words. “Violate? Who hired someone to do that to you? Don’t make

However, her accusation sent him laughing hysterically.
“Don’t tell me you’re accusing me simply because you can’t find anyone else. Oh, Pearl. Why do you
have so many enemies? If I were you, I would have ended my life and been done with it.”
His words made Pearl realize something was amiss, “You really didn’t do it?”
“Of course not. You’ve ruined my entire family. I’ve lost my home and my job. I can barely afford meals
now. How could I possibly have the money to hire someone to seek revenge on you?”
“Understood.”
After ending the call, Pearl felt perplexed. Brandon seemed to be telling the truth, so it was highly likely
he wasn’t behind the incident.
Then who made Brandon the scapegoat? That person had used Brandon’s nama to commli
