Chapter 364

When the party was over, Dustan suggested having a reunion dinner in a private room at the hotel to

celebrate Hugo’s return. As the dishes were being served, a person rushed in hastily.

“I’m sorry I’m late.”

Pearl frowned, puzzled about why Dustan had invited Jenny to the dinner.

Smiling, Dustan explained, “I invited Jen. She came all the way back from abroad and put in so much

effort to celebrate my birthday. I couldn’t not invite her.”

To ensure everyone understood the situation, Hugo added, “Jen didn’t just give Dad that watch. There’s

also a Moana Pearl, but it was delivered here late ”

Pearl quickly grasped Hugo’s intention. He must have been trying to help Jenny by gifting the Moana

Pearl to make up for the fake watch.

Dustan grinned “It’s okay. I appreciate it, even if it’s a fake. You’re very considerate, Jen.”

Jenny kept her head down, feeling guilty. “Please don’t say that, Mister Dustan. If I had known it was

fake, I wouldn’t have given it to you.”

“Alright, let’s all take a seat and enjoy the meal.”

Once Jenny was seated, Richard suddenly spoke up, “Dad, are you turning into an old fool?”

His question earned him a stern look from Dustan. “What are you talking about? I’m perfectly fine. Why

would you say that?” “Then why are you doing this?” Richard had noticed that Dustan had been

avoiding Pearl lately, and now he was acting unusually close to Jenny. It was hard for Richard not to be

suspicious.

“Rick!” Dustan rebuked. “It’s my birthday today. Watch your tongue.”

Seeing this, Richard stood up and pulled Pearl with him. “We have some matters to attend to, so we’ll

leave you guys to enjoy your meal. Bye.”

Stunned, Pearl struggled out of Richard’s grip. “Alright, Richard. It’s Mister Dustan’s birthday. Please

don’t be impulsive.” Richard remained silent, his anger somewhat subsiding because he could see how

much Pearl wanted to keep the peace. “What’s gotten into you, Rick?” Dustan was surprised, not

expecting such rebellious behavior from Richard. Ignoring Dustan, Richard continued to drink his wine.

It had been a long time since Richard had been humiliated like that. Hugo, on the other hand, was in a

cheerful mood and couldn’t hide his smile.

Throughout dinner, Dustan chatted with Jenny, making Pearl feel like an outsider at times.

“What have you been doing abroad, Jen?”

Smiling, Jenny replied, “I’ve mainly been shooting movies abroad. I’m sure you’ve heard of them,

Mister Dustan.”

“Of course. You’re an international superstar, and I’ve seen all your movies, especially the one called

‘Napoleon’s Salvation.’ It was amazing.”

“You flatter me, Mister Dustan. I’m just a humble actress and can’t be compared to Pearl. She’s truly

outstanding. No wonder Rick is so taken with her.” Jenny smiled, but her heart was filled with

resentment towards Pearl. She had never even heard of Pearl while she was abroad, and she felt that

a woman with limited fame had no right to compete with her for Richard.

Dustan gave an awkward smile. After all, Jenny had been Richard’s girlfriend in the past, and it was

uncomfortable to compare her to Pearl, Richard’s current girlfriend.

“Yeah, both of you are amazing. By the way, Jen, when are your parents coming back? Didn’t they go

abroad for business?”
