Mysterious Mr.Richard

The Wedding Will Go On As Usual

The whole bathroom was filled with steam. Through its blurry glass door, one could see a woman

leaned her tender body against the back of a man.

"I'll always be by your side, but now it's different. Pearl came back. Richard, I'm really afraid."

Her sobbing voice was mixed with the sound of running water.

Adriana had always know how to be a weak woman in front of Richard.

It was easier for woman being weak to gain a man's pity, especially when she told him that she could

not live without him.

Almost all men would lose their minds in such situation.

The sound of running water inside the bathroom stopped abruptly as Richard turned off the shower.

"Is this the reason why you tried to chase her out of Kityall?"

His voice carried a emotionless, deep, and shuddering tone.

"What?" Adriana asked in shock.

"Didn't you threaten Mr. Watson to extend Pearl's work suspension?"

Richard's voice echoed in the spacious bathroom. His question sounded more like a verdict.

"Richard, I didn't..."

Before Adriana could finish her words, her hands were pulled back. The force pushed her back by two

steps.

Richard wrapped his bath towel around his body and coldly said: "Put on your clothes. Let's talk

outside."

Adriana's face darkened from humiliation as she watched Richard leaving the bathroom mercilessly.

Her heart was now burning with hatred and jealousy towards Pearl.

Richard would never treat her so indifferently if it wasn't for Pearl.

The night deepened as dark clouds covered the moon, blocking all traces of light from it.

Adriana had taken off her clothes before she entered the bathroom. By the time she came out, a bath

towel was wrapped around her. To her dismay, Richard wasn't in his room. A gust from the open

balcony blew against her. Then she saw him smoking in the balcony. What was he thinking about? She

probably would never find out.

Adriana found her clothes put on the sofa. She hesitated, but in the end, she still picked them up and

get dressed.

She had been aware that Richard was never patient, especially if he had to deal with women. If it was

not for her sensibility, she would not have become his fiancee, regardless of how hard she'd tried.

The wind was unforgiving at the balcony as it constantly blew at the lit cigarette held by Richard.

"Richard," Adriana said nervously.

Richard gave her a sidelong glance. Seeing her already get dressed, his expression softened a little.

"I'll let the driver send you home."

Adriana lowered her head, looking uneasy. "Yes, I admit it. I indeed doesn't want her to stay in Kityall

City."

Hearing this, Richard frowned.

In his mind, Richard knew Adriana had all the rights to do such a thing. He hated it when his woman

interfered with his personal affairs, but he understood why she did this.

All because he now was her boyfriend.

"I see."

His words were cold as usual.

Adriana raised her head in shock, but what she saw was still Richard's indifferent back.

A woman's intuition was always accurate, especially when it comes to such things. Adriana was sure

that Richard didn't want to blame her for what she had done. Because he was now thinking about

another woman.

Not many people could make Richard lose control of his emotions. As far as Adriana knew, only Pearl

could to do so.

The photo taken at the zoo flashed through Adriana's eyes and she clenched her fists. She then tried to

calm down and said, "I know you don't like what I did. I promise I won't do it again...

But if you still have feelings for Pearl, I think I'll call off the wedding. I... I can... I can take it."

Hearing this, Richard turned around, frowning slightly.

Adriana's eyes turned wet as she tried her best to suppress her emotions. "Not many people know

about our engagement. It's still not too late to cancel it now."

She lowered her head and wiped her tears.

After a long while, Richard pulled her into his embrace, "The wedding will go on as usual."

It was impossible for him to get back to Pearl. Even if her children were really his, seven years had still

been too long. Pearl was too cruel to have left him without a trace for seven years.

No one was willing to by their love.

In his arms, Adriana's sobbing gradually faded away. She lowered her head, and there was a hint of

satisfaction from her expression.

How could she let go of something that she had worked so hard for so long? It was all part of her plan.

To her, the more she forced it on Richard, he would end up hating he. But if she simply gave in, the

result would be different. As she expected, Richard promised that the wedding wouldn't be cancelled.

On Monday morning, the weather was quite good.

Steve, the butler of Yonng family, took Bonny and Brandon back to Anthony. He said that he wanted his All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

two grandchildren to accompany him at home.

However, Pearl knew why her father had done so. He was afraid that it was too tiring for her to take

care of two children at the same time.

Before Steve left, he looked at the apartment Pearl had been living at, "Miss Pearl, Don't you think the

place is a little too small for four people?"

Pearl was taken by surprise and said hurriedly, "My husband lives near his company, not here. This

place is near the hospital I work."

Steve nodded thoughtfully. "That's true, Mr. Zellweger must have his own residence in Kityall City. But

Miss Pearl, since you two are getting married, I don't think it's nice way to live separately like this.

"We're not formally married yet, right? Let's talk about it another time." Pearl looked embarrassed.

"Steve, I'm running late for work. Take care of them and don't let my father wait too long."

She urged him away, afraid that he may discover the truth.

"Okay, Miss Pearl, if you're free, remember to have dinner with Mr. Yonng back home."

"Sure, I will."

Pearl let out a sigh of relief after Steven had left.
