Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Pearl’s expression turned icy. “You did a terrible thing by hacking everyone’s computers and falsely acc

using me, didn’t you? Now, not only will you not become the manager, but you’ll also lose your job due

to your malicious actions.”

She glanced at an assistant nearby. “Inform the president that there’s someone harming the company h

ere, and ask him to

come.

Knowing that the president would be notified of her scheme, Ruby was crestfallen.

When Richard arrived on the scene, he found Pearl seated calmly, watching the drama unfold with inte

rest. Ruby, on the other hand, was on the floor, crying and walling, displaying deep remorse.

Pearl teased Richard, “Mister Richard, your seasoned employee tried to frame me, but I uncovered her

plot. What do you think should be done with her?”

Richard responded emotionlessly. “Understood. I’ll fire Ruby according to the company’s rules.”

Ruby, in tears, threw herself at Richard, clutching his leg. “Please don’t fire me, Mister Richard. I’ve bee

n with the company for so long, and I don’t want to leave. Please give me another chance.”

“Release me immediately, or your punishment will be far more severe than just leaving the company,”

Richard warned sternly.

Panicking, Ruby let go, fully aware of Richard’s power.

The incident concluded with Ruby leaving the company in disgrace.

After that, Pearl turned to her colleagues and offered a warm smile. “Don’t worry. I’ll help you

guys restore your computers

now.”

Her coworkers were amazed. “You’re 50 awesome, Pearl!”

They already considered Pearl an incredibly capable woman, but now she was also skilled at fixing co

mputer viruses, leaving them wondering if there was anything she couldn’t do.

Smiling, Pearl explained, “I’ll create a code in my computer and transfer it to your computers. You don’t

have to do anything.”

“Just where did you learn this skill? It’s so cool!” Pearl’s male colleagues surrounded her

in amazement. They felt that Pearl was just like a hacker in movies..

Smiling shyly, Pearl elaborated, “It’s nothing special. I picked up some knowledge from a foreigner whe

n I was abroad. It’s just basic stuff.”

Richard, watching the attention Pearl was receiving, felt a pang of annoyance.

“Aren’t you going back to work? If you don’t return to your desks now, I’ll dock a month’s salary from ea

ch of you,” he declared coldly, his mellow voice carrying a commanding tone. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

His threat compelled the men to timidly return to their workstations.

However, Pearl playfully teased him with a sly grin. “Are you jealous?”

“Get back to work.”

“Don’t be so stem. I know men rarely say what they mean.”

Richard shot her an indifferent look, a hint of emotion flickering in his eyes. “You’re actually a hacker.”

Others might think she had only acquired some basic skills, but Richard saw something more. Only a to

Pearl shrugged, spreading her hands. “You got me.‘

“You’re impressive.”

“Well, I’m sure there are many more fupressive people out there,” Pearl gracefully returned to her seat.

In the evening, as Pearl stepped out of the company, someone blocked her path as she attempted to ha

It was Hanzel, whom she hadn’t seen in two days due to his filming commitments.

Hanzel flashed her a bright smile. “Get in the car, Pearl, I’m taking you somewhere,”

Pearl shook her head. “No, I’ve got something to do later.”

“Come on, Pearl. Ilmow a place with a beautiful night view. I’m sure you’ll like it!” he urged.
