Chapter 192
Pearl’s eyes narrowed. Has Sophia taken up that special space in his heart? They looked intimate.
Was this how Richard showed his desire to be with her?
His affection was too cheap.
A mix of emotions overwhelmed Pearl’s heart, leaving a bitter taste in her mouth.
Hanzel followed her gaze toward Richard, who was standing there with Sophia, and asked, “Who’s the
girl next to Rick?”
“An employee,” Pearl replied in a flat tone and looked away.
Hanzel grinned. “They look more than just employer and employee.”
“Whatever.” Pearl was no longer in the mood for dinner.
Hanzel secretly felt pleased seeing how intimate Richard appeared with another girl. As long as
Richard gave up on Pearl, he might have a chance.
Hanzel suggested, “I’ll take you to see some Christmas lights later. You can write your wishes on the
decorations, and they say
your wishes will come true. A lot of people are doing it…
Pearl suddenly stood up and said in a low voice, “Let’s go back”
Hanzel was shocked. “But we haven’t seen the Christmas lights yet.”
“I don’t want to do that anymore. I’m feeling a bit tired and want to rest,” Pearl said, looking drained and
in a foul mood.
Hanzel couldn’t help but ask, “Pea, have you fallen for my brother?” He hoped it was just a crush, as
that would mean he had a novelbin
better chance.
Pearl denied it. “No.”
“No?” Hanzel challenged, “If you haven’t, why do you care so much? You should just admit it.”
It might be love, but so what? Richard didn’t love her back. He was merely infatuated, and once that
infatuation faded, he would return to his old self and perhaps fall for someone else.
Pearl said with a cold expression, “It doesn’t matter. Don’t ask me that question again.”
Hanzel was about to say something more when Pearl turned and walked away.
The next day, it was Mobius’s turn to take care of Pearl. He had always been hot-tempered, but after
Pearl helped him, his attitude toward her had changed drastically.
Mobius smiled. “Do you want an apple? I can peel it for you.”
Pearl shook her head. “No. Also, I don’t need anyone here to take care of me. You should go back to
school and leave me.”
Mobius understood she said that out of concern for him, so he replied, “I promised to look after you, so
I won’t leave until the day is up.”
Pearl was about to say something when a knock on the door interrupted her. She looked toward the
door and saw Sophia, dressed in a white outfit, looking pure and demure, with a smile on her face.
“I’ve come to visit you, Pearl.”
Pearl nodded. “Well, you’ve done that. Can you leave now?”
