"What's the matter? It's just an act, not real. The main issue is that my grandpa is determined to meet my girlfriend. How am | supposed to find a

girlfriend who will satisfy him at this point?" Silas explained, his eyes assessing Pearl from top to bottom, seemingly approving of her appearance. "|

think you're pretty good. Besides, my grandpa kind of likes you."

"Why would your grandpa like me?" Pearl was puzzled.

Silas struggled to hold back his smile as he replied, "Everyone in Enswood knows that the president of Cerubleu is a woman with both beauty and

brains. | bet there's a line of suitors wrapping around the city, eager to marry you."

"Really now?" Pearl knew she had her share of admirers, but she didn't think it was as exaggerated as he described.

Unbeknownst to her, before she got together with Richard, Wayne had effectively discouraged her suitors. After her relationship with Richard, no man

dared to challenge his authority, further solidifying her belief that men didn't particularly like her.

"Of course. After | told my grandpa that | liked you, he was so happy that he insisted on meeting you," Silas replied, pouting slightly. "If you don't help

Pearl sighed at Silas's antics. His words seemed exaggerated, but there was struth to them. Silas was incredibly popular in the company, and his

departure would be a significant loss.

Taking a moment to weigh the pros and cons, Pearl finally relented, nodding. "Okay, I'll help you out."

Silas visibly relaxed and reached out to tousle her hair playfully. "In that case, I'll let you handle the PR and say that the girl in the photo was Celine."

Pearl slapped his hand away. "It's not that easy. Even if | handle the PR, we need to make sure that Celine is willing to go along with it.

Silas chuckled, recalling Celine's behavior around him. As far as he knew, she practically wanted to be with him all the time. "Don’t worry, there's no

way she wouldn't agree."

"Alright, enough stalling. Let's go to the office now." Pearl got into Silas's car.

Silas was pleased to see her finally willing to sit in his car. "Yes, ma'am!"

With that resolved, Pearl and Silas hurried to the office. Celine, however, burst into the room, tears streaming down her face.

Seeing Celine in tears, Silas felt annoyed deep down. He turned away, refusing to look at her.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Pearl asked, concerned.

Celine sobbed as she explained, "Someone commented on my video, saying I'm meddling in someone else's relationship and intentionally trying to

create a PR stunt with Silas. They're callinga homewrecker."

Silas couldn't help but think, "Well, isn't that the truth?" He had grown tired of Celine's constant presence and her attempts to get close to him.

Celine becmore upset. Deep down, she knew the woman in the photo was Pearl, her boss. Pearl also knew that the two of them were in a PR

stunt, yet she chose to get so close to Silas, even getting photographed with him in an intimate way.

She had never experienced such injustice. She had always portrayed herself as a pure and innocent girl in front of others, and now, she was being

attacked. She had lost hundreds of thousands of followers, and her comment section was filled with hateful words.

"Don't worry too much about this. | have a new plan,” Pearl comforted Celine patiently.
