Mysterious Mr.Richard
Chapter 45 Nobody Could Disturb His Perfect Life.

Alex knew what she meant, although Pearl did not finish.

"How are things between you and him?"

"Who? What do you mean?" Pearl played dumb.

Noticing that she didn't want to mention about it, he didn't ask more. "Nothing, just eat."

Pearl never mentioned Richard when they were studying abroad, If he had not seen them dating by chance when they were in college, he wouldn't know they had been together. After lunch, Pearl and Alex came out from the cafeteria together.

It was in the afternoon. Shehad a bad time with the crew earlier. So she was not in a hurry to go back. She found a cool area in the hospital garden and rested there. "Thank you, Alex. If it weren't for you, I would have nothing to eat. The food is pretty good."

"If you like it, you can come here for lunch."

"It sounds not good. None of the crew is allowed to eat there."

"It's ok," Alex explained, "They just worried that the crew members will disrupt things in the hospital. But you're a doctor, so I'll tell them, and you'll be able to go in."

Pearl originally wanted to decline. After all, it was not good to have this privilege. However, Brandon, who seemed indifferent to everything, loved pork chops the most. So she had the cheek to accept the offer "Thank you."

"Don't be so reserved around me."

They were chatting when a middle-aged man walked to them. He scanned the surroundings before walking to Pearl. "Are you Miss Pearl?" He asked.

Alex and Pearl were stunned.

"Who are you?" Pearl asked.

"Our Madam wants to talk to you. Are you free now?"

"Your Madam?"

Pearl scanned him and frowned. She didn't feel good about it.

Pearl followed him to the hospital's underground parking lot. When the elevator door opened, there was a cold wind whizzing on her calf, which made her tremble. The man stopped two meters away from a car and reached his hand towards it. "Please."

Followed his direction, Pearl glanced at the car.

It was a black Porsche, with cover on windows. It was impossible to peer into the car, but you could see the outside clearly from the inside.

Pearl opened the door and saw the person in the car. She could guess what was going on.

"Miss Yonng, long time no see." In the car, Helena sat upright. She still looked elegant and dignified, as seven years ago.

"Mrs. Zellweger?" Pearl pulled the door with one hand, and her back stiffened.

"Is Miss Yonng going to talk to me like that?"

Helena's voice was cold and a little arrogant. Pearl came back to her senses and frowned. Then she got in the car and closed the door. She breathed deeply and asked, "Mrs. Zellweger, what can I do for you?"

"It has been seven years since we met last time. You're still as beautiful as ever. I heard that you're working in a hospital and is a chief surgeon, right?"

NOW PLAY YOUR FAVOURITE GAMES ON

Her tone was light, and atthough it was a compliment, but her attitude remained the same as seven years ago. Obviously, Helena did not think highly of Pearl.

Pearl composed herself and said in a calm voice, "Mrs. Zellweger, you're not here for chatting, right? What do you want?"

Helena stared at Pearl and retorted, "What do you think?"

"I broke up with Richard already."

Pearl said directly. She stared at Helena and continued frankly, "We broke up seven years ago. You should know that better than anyone else, so I really don't understand why you came here." Helena sneered, "You denied and wanted to get rid of everything from the start, huh? If it was anyone else, I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't know how to reply, and they'll probably think that they're making trouble out of nothing."

"Miss Yonng, you probably knew that Richard is getting married, with your bet friend. So shouldn't you keep your distance from your friend's fiance? Or doesn't it matter for you to flirt around with your ex?" Pearl frowned her eyebrows, and she looked a little mad. "What do you mean?"

"Come on! I've heard all the rumors in the company. If you didn't go looking for Richard first, I believe that he would never be involved with you again. I came here today to tell you to stay away from him." Helena's words were overbearing, and she was trampling Pearl, without caring about Pearl's feelings.

Pearl tried her best to hold her anger because Helena was an elder. While, Pearl finally couldn't stand it when she heard this. She was disgusted and her face darkened, "Mrs. Zellweger, you are still as self- righteous as you were seven years ago."

"What?" Helena scowled and snapped.

"Whenever there's a problem, you'll assume that you and Richard are not wrong at all, and you'll always blame others. What made you think that I went after him? Do you have proof?"

"Proof?" Helena snorted, "Why would I need to check for such a tiny thing?"

"Well, didn't you come here for something so tiny? You've wasted my time for a long time, but you didn't even apologize. So these are your manners, huh?"

"You..."

"Calm down. I'm not finish yet." Pearl took out two hundred dollars from her wallet, and handed it to her.

Helena's face changed, and she hissed, "What's that mean?"

"Isn't this how you do things? You don't need to give me a cheque to leave your son this time. I'll pay you and please leave me alone, Thank you."

"You..."

"I am busy, excuse me." Pearl put the money on the seat and got out of the car, before Helena could react.

Then Helena got out of the car behind her, and the sound of high heels echoed in the big parking lot. "Pearl, stop right there."

Pearl put her hands in her pockets and stopped. She asked coldly, without looking back. "Is there anything else?"

"If you meet Richard again, I'll make you pay price. I know you don't have anything to lose, but how about the Yonng family? Could you abandon them? I heard that Trevino Group is trying to finance to xpand the company."

Helena's words made Pearl's face darkened, and her hands in the pocket also clenched into a fist.

She knew Helena. Seven years ago, she knew that Helena was a woman of her words. If she said that, she would definitely do it.

The footsteps behind her were closer, and Helena's voice became colder and sharper. "It took a lot to get Richard to leave you and return to Zellweger Group. I will never allow others disturb his perfect life, especially you."000
