Chapter 357

“I had good intentions. Besides, you’re an outsider too, Pearl…” Jenny said, her head hung in a guise

of grievance.

“She’s my fiancee. How can you even compare to her?” Richard’s statement silenced

everyone.

Jenny was the one hurt the most by his words, and she cried as if she had been wronged. “Rick, our

feelings for each other in the past were genuine, even if you dislike me now. Why are you being so

cruel to me?”

Pearl couldn’t resist making sarcastic comments about Jenny’s behavior. “Miss Jenny, you’re talking

about past feelings in front of his girlfriend. Why don’t you explain the reason behind his cruelty?”

Of course, Richard was visibly disgusted.

“1…” Jenny looked down, hiding the hatred in her eyes.

Hugo stepped forward as a peacemaker. “Let’s put the past behind us. After all, Richard and Pearl are

a couple now. I’m sure Jen wishes them well too.”

Jenny nodded with gratitude.

Hugo continued, “Dad’s birthday party is coming up in a few days. I plan to go home and celebrate with

him.”

Mobius clenched his fists. “Go home? How dare you even think of it, Hugo? You angered Dad so much

the other day, and I haven’t held you accountable for that. You have the audacity to come back to us!”

Sean gave Hugo a cold glance and remarked, “Stop bothering with such a shameless person. I don’t

even know what he’s up to.”

It appeared that the Waldorfs had long considered Hugo an eyesore.

However, Hugo paid no attention to their comments, and he departed with a gentle and composed

smile. “Well, it’s settled then. I’ll be on my way. See you the day after tomorrow.”

After that, he got up to leave.

The atmosphere among the other Waldorfs improved once he was gone.

Jenny quickly served some food onto Mobius’s plate to save face. “Come on, eat. Don’t just sit there. I

remember that you love roast pork the most…”

Mobius was still in a daze as he replied, “Thank you, sis.”

“You’re welcome. Enjoy your meal,” Jenny beamed, behaving like the gracious hostess, then turned to

look at Pearl smugly.

Sean, quick on the uptake, gave Mobius a stern look. “What did you say?”

Mobius realized his mistake and awkwardly glanced at Pearl from the corner of his eye. “I’m sorry, I

misspoke.”

Pearl couldn’t hide her disgust for Jenny. She narrowed her eyes and taunted, “Why is Miss

Jenny acting so natural in serving others? If I recall correctly, I’m the one paying for this meal. If I don’t

like it, I can ask her to leave.”

Everyone knew exactly what she meant, and Jenny would have to be incredibly dense not to catch

that.

Unfortunately, Jenny pretended to be confused. “But I remember Rick went and paid for it just now. I’m

sure… it’s not your treat, right, Miss Pearl?”

Pearl playfully nudged Richard with her shoulder and raised an eyebrow. “It’s my treat, he’s footing the

bill. Is that a problem?”

but

Richard wiped his mouth and calmly replied, “No.” His response was a clear show of support

for Pearl.

Enraged, Jenny stood up and sobbed. “If you all hate me this much, then I’ll leave.”

Slowly, Pearl answered, “It’s good that you’re aware of that, but it’s a little too late.”

As Jenny took her first step towards leaving, she slipped and fell in Richard’s direction.

Despite his dislike for her, Richard couldn’t ignore her falling and moved to help her…

Bang!

Quick as lightning, Pearl reached out and prevented Jenny from hitting the floor face-first.
