Chapter 268

Pearl gave Esther a reassuring look and tried to calm her down. “Don’t overthink it. Mobius always talks

like that, so don’t

take it to heart”

Hearing that, Esther’s defenses collapsed, and tears welled up in her eyes. “I’m okay,” she sniffled,

attempting to appear

strong.

“Don’t worry. I’ll teach him a lesson for you when I get back,” Pearl assured her.

“Okay. Thank you, Pearl.”

Pearl was concerned that being around Richard might make Esther think about Mobius and become

emotional, so she quickly

left with Richard.

Once they were in the car, Pearl noticed Mobius sulking in the back seat.

“Why did you say that? You really don’t like her?” she asked.

“Yes! Who would like such a foolish and silly woman?”

“You’re just stubborn. Pray tell me why you care if there’s a guy at her house or not. I never knew you

to be so protective.”

Mobius waved his hand dismissively, and Pearl continued, “Besides, you’re upset now because she

lacked you out and kept hanging out with that guy, aren’t you?”

Her question left Mobius speechless.

“Stop assuming things. Tyler is probably still sound asleep there. You’re overthinking it

interfere in her life. He couldn’t quite figure out his feelings.

Suddenly, he looked up at Richard. “Take me to Dark Bar, Rick” Uncertain about his own emotions, he

hoped that a little wine

might help him sort things out

go in. After that, he turned to Pearl with an odd look on his face.

Pearl felt a chill run down her spine from his strange gaze and asked, frowning, “What’s the matter?”

“Tyler is sleeping soundly? How did you know?”

Hearing that, Pearl’s heart skipped a beat. Knowing that it was too late to lie, she explained honestly,

“Wasn’t I led to a room? It happened to be Tyler’s room, and that’s how I saw he was sleeping.

Relief washed over Richard, but a hint of displeasure still lingered

“Why are you still upset?”

Quietly, Richard moved closer to her, but Pearl instinctively pulled back in fear.

“I’m jealous,” he confessed.

Stunned, Pearl couldn’t comprehend his jealousy. “Why are you jealous?”

Richard’s tone softened, but his expression remained somber. “You were alone with him in a room, and

you even saw him sleep. I’m jealous of that.” He added, “You’ve never watched me sleep.”

Pearl was baffled by his words and found them inexplicably childish
