Chapter 618

Sean gave an understanding smile and let go of Pearl’s hand. “Okay, I’ll stop teasing you. Let’s go.”

Pearl had been maintaining some distance from Sean to prevent any inappropriate behavior. ” We may

be pretending to be a couple, but that doesn’t mean we need to be glued together.”

Sean abruptly stopped and turned to face her with a smirk.

“Sean.” Finally, Pearl had reached her limit. “I think pretending to be a couple for a day is unnecessary.”

Sean was stunned because of her sudden outburst, but then a mocking smile crossed his face. ” That

has always been my idea.”

Confusion flickered in Pearl’s eyes. “You don’t even like me, so why would you want to be my

boyfriend?”

Sean burst into laughter. “Who told you that? My feelings for you are probably even stronger than

Richard’s.”

Naturally, Pearl couldn’t believe her ears. “But you’ve never shown any sign of liking me.”

“Of course not. By the time I realized my feelings for you, you were already in a complicated

relationship with Richard,” Sean explained. “Back then, I couldn’t compete with Richard so I kept my

feelings hidden.”

On the day she had helped him out of his predicament and comforted him, he had realized his feelings

for her. However, with Richard’s obvious affection for Pearl and Pearl’s own feelings for him, Sean had

chosen not to humiliate himself by openly pursuing her.

Although he generally loved to fight against Richard, he knew that he could never get Pearl. Hence, he

buried those feelings deeply.

“So, you’re saying?” Pearl inquired.

“I’m not asking for a long–term relationship or marriage,” Sean clarified. “I just want to be your

boyfriend for a day, fulfill a wish, and then put an end to my feelings.” It was clear to him that he could

never truly be with Pearl.

Standing in the bustling crowd, they locked eyes in silence.

Pearl could see the pain in Sean’s eyes. “Alright, I understand,” she replied after taking a deep breath.

“Our paths were never meant to cross.”

She had initially disliked Sean’s character before she fell in love with Richard. They were like two

parallel lines destined to lead separate lives.

Similarly, Sean took a deep breath. “I’ve come to terms with it. No need to rub it in.” He looked

disheartened as he shrugged helplessly.

Pearl could tell he had accepted the reality, so she offered a faint smile. “But since you want to be my

boyfriend for a day, I’ll grant your wish. It’s my final gift to you as a friend.”

His gloomy eyes brightened at her words. However, they dimmed when he heard that it was her final

gift.

“Yeah, you’re going abroad,” Sean said, trying to hide his disappointment. “So, you won’t be coming

back?”

Pearl shook her head. “I’m not sure about that.”

She had kept her plan to get engaged to Hugo after going abroad a secret from everyone. They only

knew that she wanted to go abroad to cure her mother’s illness, and the uninformed might assume she

intended to temporarily hide her identity abroad.

Pearl was about to change the subject and discuss something happier when suddenly the crowd

around them erupted into panicked screams.

“Fire! There’s a fire!”
