Chapter 102

While they waited for Richard, Abby attempted to engage in small talk to pass the time.

“Pearl, I heard Waldorf Enterprises hit a new high while I wasn’t around, all thanks to you.”

Abby looked at Pearl with adoration, as if she was sincerely praising Pearl for her accomplishment.

“Don’t be modest. Richard told me you’ve put in extra effort. If you marry into the Waldorf family, it would totally be their honor… Oh Rick, over here!”

Richard didn’t expect Pearl to be there either, so his eyes darted around.

“Rick, we were discussing what to have for lunch. Any preferences?”

“Anything works for me.”

Abby smiled and asked, “How about you, Pearl?”

Pearl suggested Jenovian, but Abby suddenly looked hesitant. “Oh… but Richard has a weak stomach, so Jenovian might not be good for him. Let’s consider something else.”
