Chapter 372

“What do you want to drink, Rick? I’ll go order it,” Jenny said, leaning against Richard and being very

flirtatious, but she no longer looked the same way as when they were in university.

Richard kept his eyes shut, clearly annoyed. “You should go home.”

Unfazed, Jenny continued to press herself against him. “Rick, I just want to spend some time with you.

You’re not that petty, are you?”

Richard finally opened his eyes and pushed her away with irritation. “How did you even know I’m

here?”

Jenny persisted but changed her approach. “Our minds are connected, Rick. But okay, I’ll stop teasing

you. Hugo told me you were here.”

“Why would Hugo know I’m here?” Richard squinted and immediately felt uncomfortable.

Jenny decided to play on Richard’s strained relationship with his brother. “I think it’s because he cares

about you, Rick. You two had that argument, and he wants to apologize. He told me he’d find a chance

to apologize to you.”

Though Richard was skeptical, he didn’t press further. He then noticed Pearl approaching them.

Jenny noticed Pearl too and leaned on Richard’s side, addressing her with annoyance, “Oh, isn’t this

Pearl? What are you doing here?”

Pearl scoffed. “It’s none of your business.”

Jenny continued to provoke her. “Of course, it’s none of my business, but good women don’t usually

come to bars in the middle of the night, especially when they’re dating someone. When I was with

Richard, he never allowed me to come to bars.” She smiled nostalgically at her memories.

Pearl finished her drink in one go and shot back, “Richard never tried to control me like that. Maybe it’s

because you don’t exactly have the best reputation.”

“What did you say?” Jenny was visibly angered. Pearl’s sharp tongue left no room for subtlety. Turning

to Richard, she complained, “Look at your girlfriend, Rick She’s so fiery and not gentle at all.”

Richard kept silent and didn’t want to speak up for her.

Pearl, fed up with their conversation, suggested, “Richard, shall we go home?”

Richard was still silent and slowly closed his eyes.

“Can’t you see he’s not having a good time, Pearl? Why don’t you let him enjoy himself? You’re being

quite inconsiderate.” Jenny tried to appear caring for Richard.

Pearl glared at Jenny. “I’m talking to Richard. You should shut up.” Her typically soft and expressive

eyes now held a fiery intensity, causing Jenny to tremble. Pearl was not one to be trifled with when she

was angry.

Finally, Richard spoke up. “Pearl, you should go home.” He was clearly dismissing her.

Pearl took a step forward, her eyes reflecting defeat and pain. “You want me to leave?”

Richard remained neutral and said nothing

Determined, Pearl took a deep breath and declared, “I won’t.”

Jenny, on the other hand, relished the situation. To her, this was Richard protecting her, and she was

delighted. She believed that if she persisted, Richard would eventually fall for her again.

Continuing to provoke Pearl, she said, “Why are you being so shameless, Pearl? Rick asked you to

leave, so why are you still here?”

Pear! could barely contain her frustration. “Stop with your bullsh*t, Jenny, or I’ll have someone throw

you out!” “Who do you think you are? Who’s going to throw me out? You don’t own this place!” Jenny

scoffed.
