Chapter 139 A new beginning

After sending Ruby away, Pearl knew this matter could not be delayed any longer.

If Adeline knew the truth, she would definitely find a way to investigate it. It would be over for Pearl once Adeline found out about everything.

Thinking of this, Pearl took out a business card from her purse. After hesitating for a while, she dialed the number on it.

Soon, noisy noises came out from the other end of the phone. Gingerly, Pearl said hello.

After a moment of silence, she heard a man's lazy voice.

"Baby, I thought you've forgotten about me!"

Pearl's lips froze, and then she answered in a cheery tone, "Why would I forget about you?"

"No? I saw that you and Edmund are very happy together!"

Pearl felt a chill down her spine. How could she forget that this man was very dangerous?

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "Last time you said that you wanted to work beside me. I've thought about it, but your identity is too obvious. I'm afraid that you'll be in danger."
