Chapter 560
Alan seemed at ease with the idea of Pearl being with Drew, but his words caught in
Pearl’s throat. She couldn’t help but wonder why everyone wanted to push her towards
Drew, and if there was some hidden meaning behind it.
Confused, she turned her gaze towards Drew, who blushed and looked away. She wished
he would explain the situation instead of blushing like that.
Pearl mustered an awkward smile and replied, “Mister Alan, that’s not necessary. There’s
nothing romantic between Drew and me. Plus, I already have a fiance…”
Hearing that, Alan’s face sank, and he glared at Drew. “You disappointed me!”
However, he quickly softened his expression and turned to Pearl with a kind smile. “It’s
alright. Nothing is set in stone until you’re married, and even then, you can get a divorce if
needed, right?”
Pearl was left with chaotic thoughts. She couldn’t comprehend why this family suddenly
became so hostile and said things she couldn’t understand. Was it a good thing to be so
modern–minded?

with a deep breath, offering a smile. “I have a fiancee too.”
Alan sighed upon hearing the mention of Drew’s fiancee. “Let’s not talk about your
fiancee. I heard she doesn’t want to marry you and claims to be in love with someone
else. She’ll probably come over and break off the engagement soon.” His face turned red
with anger at the thought of the engagement being canceled.
Drew, however, remained calm. “It’s alright, Grandpa. If she wants to cancel the
engagement, then we should cancel it. We don’t have any feelings for each other.
anyway.”
Alan nodded and dropped the subject.
As the party got underway, Alan took the stage to manage the event, while Pearl retreated
to a corner to sip tea and chat with Drew.
“I’ve heard some things about you recently. You seem to be quite famous here. But what’s
the deal with your fiancee? She doesn’t seem interested in you?” Pearl inquired.
“I don’t know. Maybe the guy she’s interested in is a better match for her. I didn’t propose
the engagement in the first place, but I have to end it now. I hate it.”
“It’s alright. Maybe she’s not happy with it either, and that’s why she wants to end it. By
the way, I heard you’re involved in research. What’s your area of expertise?” Pearl had
initially thought Drew was a basketball player, but it turned out he was a researcher. Well,
one could not judge a book by its cover,
“I’m developing new technology, and I work at the National Technological University at
Solvosin.”
The university’s reputation extended beyond Solvosin, and it was known for its significant
research contributions. It was clear that Drew was highly accomplished.
An idea suddenly struck Pearl. “Would you consider collaborating with me on a research

Drew hesitated for a moment. “I have more than enough resources for my research.”
He was doing research because of his interest. Besides, his family had great business and
wealth, so he didn’t need any funding.

Pearl persisted, dropping hints. “Your family’s wealth and earned resources are two
different things.” She blinked at him, silently urging him to agree.
Looking at her mischievous face, Drew smiled and was moved.
As Drew contemplated the proposal, a sudden cold laugh interrupted their conversation
from behind. “I haven’t canceled our engagement yet, but it seems there’s a vixen
cozying up to my fiance.”
