Chapter 191
On the third day, it was Hugo’s turn to visit. Pearl didn’t want to entertain his constant requests to be
with him, so she feigned sleep every time he entered the room, avoiding conversation.
The following day, Hanzel, despite having a busy schedule, cleared his day just to come see her.
He couldn’t help but ask when he saw her lying in bed, “Why did you suddenly get a fever?”
“Maybe I’m just too stressed with work, or because I caught a cold, but I’ll be alright soon,” Pearl said,
noticing the worry in
his
eyes and trying to reassure him.
Hanzel frowned. “Why would you be in the hospital for so long if it’s just a fever? What did the doctor
say?”
“The doctor said I’ve been under too much stress. In addition to the fever, I have low blood pressure,
which is putting extra strain on my b*dy. That’s why I have to stay here for a few days.”
Pearl didn’t want to be there for that long either because it was a waste of time. At the same time, she
was so bored she didn’t
know what to do there.
However, the doctor insisted on her staying and wouldn’t discharge her for at least a week.
Hanzel sighed. “Alright then. The doctor knows best. You should rest.”
But then a mischievous glint appeared in his eyes. “How are you feeling now?”
Pearl answered honestly, “I think I’m alright now. I don’t feel anything bad.”
Hanzel smiled slyly. “Well, how about we go for a walk? Christmas is approaching, and the streets will
be crowded at night.”
Pearl wanted to turn him down, but images of Richard standing up for Sophia flashed in her mind,
annoying her.
“Sure,” Pearl quickly agreed.
They tidied up the room, and Hanzel had a pair of large sunglasses to conceal his identity. Since Pearl
had become quite well- known, she also wore a mask and shades.
Pearl felt much better after being cooped up in the hospital for nearly a week
Hanzel took her out for dinner first. They savored kebabs and beer by the roadside, and it was so
relaxing.
Pearl was surprised. “I didn’t know you like this.”
Hanzel responded with a bright smile, “What, celebrities aren’t allowed to enjoy street food?”
“Of course not. I was worried your fans might see you here and overwhelm the stalls,” Pearl said,
bursting into laughter at the thought.
Hanzel gazed at her smiling face, and his heart skipped a beat. “I usually come here alone, but I’m glad
you’re here with me this time.”
Pearl raised her brows curiously. “No one wants to join the celebrity for some kebabs?”
“Would you come with me again?” Hanzel asked sincerely.
Pearl didn’t hear him at first, so she looked up. However, from the corner of her eye, she noticed two
people standing on the side of the street. She couldn’t tell who they were. novelbin
The woman was standing in front of the man with her head bowed, and her shoulders appeared to be
trembling. In the next moment, the woman collapsed into the man’s arms, but the man pushed her
away.
Pearl immediately recognized them-Richard and Sophia
