Chapter 203

“You said you saw me hug Sophia. Can you tell me who you went out with?”

Richard’s inquiry was met with Pearl’s silence.

“It was Hanzel, wasn’t it?”

Pearl couldn’t waste time arguing with Richard now. She turned and left with the others when Hanzel

was pushed out of the room, leaving Richard behind in contemplation.

When Pearl arrived at the ward and saw Hanzel’s tightly closed eyes and pale lips, guilt surged within

her. If only she hadn’t texted Hanzel, he would still be energetically filming on set, not lying motionless

in a hospital bed.

Pearl had used the best herbs to stop the bleeding and had applied Simon’s detoxification secret

formula. In theory, Hanzel should be awake by now, but he remained unresponsive.

As if in response to her thoughts, Hanzel began to stir. His fingers twitched, and his eyes slowly

opened.

“Pearl…”

Pearl was in a trance, but she leaned over when she heard him. “What’s wrong?”

Hanzel, relieved to see Pearl safe despite her tired appearance, replied, “Nothing. I’m just glad you’re

safe.”

Pearl rolled her eyes at him. “That’s not a reason for you to risk your life to save me. You’re not a child,

okay? You should take better care of yourself. Why did you save someone who’s not even relevant to

you?”

Unexpectedly, Hanzel became serious. “No, you’re not irrelevant. You’re as important to me as my

parents, Pearl. Even though you may think I’m not serious about you, as if it’s just a passing fancy, I’ve

never seen you as prey. I genuinely care about you.” Hanzel’s confession left Pearl bewildered.

“Okay, you must still be recovering and not thinking straight. We’ll talk more when you’re fully awake.

Are you thirsty? I’ll get you some water.” Pearl tried to change the subject.

She stood up and was about to leave but noticed Richard standing at the door as soon as she opened

it. Richard looked gloomy as if he was in a bad mood.

“Watch over Hanzel for me. I’ll be back later.” Pearl waved a cup awkwardly and left when Richard

remained silent.

In the blink of an eye, Richard and Hanzel were the only ones left.

Richard, looking displeased, blurted out, “I heard your confession just now.”

Hanzel, however, didn’t seem the least bit embarrassed. He smiled and replied, “What’s wrong, Rick? I

simply confessed my love for the girl I care about. I didn’t force her into anything. Why are you mad?”

“You know that she’s your future sister-in-law,” Richard pointed out.

Hanzel’s lips curled into a sarcastic sneer. “I used to believe that you were good for Pearl, but lately,

I’ve seen her in a bad mood because of you. I’ve come to realize that my compromise was a mistake.

Pearl won’t be happy with you.”

“How can you be so sure she won’t be happy?”
