Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 1297

As the car stopped at the company's entrance, Pearl heard a gentle tapping on her window before she could step out. She lowered the window and saw a smiling face outside, but it didn't look familiar to her.

"Excuse me. Who are you?" she asked.

Upon hearing this, Luther's eyes narrowed in amusement. "You're very smart, Miss Pearl. But I came to see you today for a reason. Would you be able to spare some time to chat with me?"

Seeing Luther's determined expression, it was apparent he had been waiting there for a while. But Pearl didn't know him, so she had no intention of dealing with him. "I have to go to work now. We can talk later."

But Luther was persistent. "It won't take much of your time, and I believe you'll be interested in what I'm going to say."
