Chapter 395

That sadness was gone in an instant, leaving behind a feeling of pity and regret.

Could it be that she was just fooling herself? Everyone else seemed to notice Richard’s change of

heart, while she clung to the idea that he hadn’t changed at all.

“After four years, Richard will probably be tempted again. If you don’t believe me, just wait for the day

he dumps you and ends up with Jenny.” Raymond chuckled and let go of her hand.

Pearl’s heart ached. She forced herself to stay composed and turned to walk away.

“Oh, by the way, there’s one more thing I forgot to tell you,” Raymond whispered in Pearl’s ear, “I really

like you.”

Pearl immediately stomped on his foot, causing Raymond to wince in pain. He bit his lip to stifle any

sound.

“Pearl…” He forced a smile. “Even if you don’t believe it, I genuinely like you, just as much as Richard.”

Pearl didn’t bother responding to him. Right now, all she wanted was to find a quiet place to think

As she left the bar, she suddenly saw a familiar figure at the entrance.

‘Hugo Waldorf? What’s he doing here?’ Pearl watched as Hugo entered the bar. She hurriedly followed,

intentionally avoiding Raymond, and sat down behind Hugo.

She kept her head down to hide. When she looked up again, the familiar person in front of her made

her gasp involuntarily.

‘Hugo and Jenny? Why are they meeting here in the middle of the night?’

Before she could react, Hugo spoke, “How have you been lately? Is Richard treating you well?”

Jenny proudly raised her chin. “Of course, he treats me very well. He’s completely ignoring Pearl now

and giving all his attention to me. He’s even helping me with many things. If it weren’t for Pearl not

breaking up with him yet, I would’ve made our relationship official.”

“So, you’re saying that Richard… neglects Pearl to be with you?” Hugo was slightly surprised but then

smiled knowingly.

“Yeah, I get the feeling that Richard isn’t treating Pearl that well. Every time she calls him, he frowns

and hangs up quickly. I think Richard hasn’t broken up with Pearl because she hasn’t brought it up

herself. Otherwise, he would’ve ended things a long time ago.”

Pearl, listening from behind, froze in place. Although Jenny was usually indulgent, what she said didn’t

seem to be false. Was Richard waiting for her to break up?

“By the way, did you ask me to be here for something?”

Hugo nodded. “Yeah, I wanted to find out if you truly like him.”

“Of course, I’ve liked him for eight years.”

“Doesn’t what happened between us last time matter?” Hugo grinned, his smile fading, leaving a hint of

unspoken bitterness that quickly disappeared.

Jenny looked embarrassed. “I slept with you last time because I drank too much, Hugo. I’ve made it

clear afterward that we should forget about it. You shouldn’t use this to threaten me.”

“I’m not threatening you.”

Jenny got up, showing disdain in her expression. “I’ve always liked Richard. He’s good-looking,

talented, and stable. You should let go of any thoughts you have.”

With that, she ignored the madness in Hugo’s eyes and left.

Hugo sat in silence. After a while, he drank the wine in one gulp and left the bar.

Pearl had no idea how she returned to the hotel. When she got back, Esther was already asleep. When

she heard Pearl’s return.

she muttered, “Why are you back so late?”

Pearl couldn’t sleep all night and just lay on the bed.
