My ex-husband is seeking a second chance

Chapter 158

“Noah, what are you thinking! Why are you giving Pearl an insurance policy? That is so funny!”

Hubert laughed till he bent over. He could not understand how Noah and Charlie could be so ignorant when it came to girls

They were no better than straight men.

Pearl and Noah shot a glance at Hubert. Their gazes were like laser, instantly burning Hubert to ashes.

Sering that Hubert could not stop howling with laughter, Noah kicked him. “And what birthday gifi did you prepare for Pearl!”

Noah wanted to see Hubert embarrassing himself.

Hubert was laughing so hard that he was on the edge of tears. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and straightened his back. But first. he handed Pearl the birthday gift from his father. “Here, this is a big red packet from the old man. Now, look at it carefully, lest he accuse me of aking the money for myself.

Everyone loved money. When Pearl received the check, she immediately accepted it with a smile. “Thank you“”

for you”

“Little money–grubber look what I’ve got fo

Hubert patted Pearl’s head and led her out the door. Noah followed behind them.

There was a car covered in black cloth at the entrance of Food Delight Diner. Hubert took out the key and handed it to Pearl. “I just brought in back from overseas. It’s yours.”

Noah’s lips curled up at the ends. “Sigh, I was wondering what it was. Just a sports car! Bow tacky.”

Hubert clarified, “This is no ordinary sports car.”

Before he could finish his sentence, the impatient Pearl had already rushed forward. She swung her arm and lifted the black cloth from the ear. It was a freshly painted emerald green Porsche 911. Under the dazzling lights of the diner, the car illuminated.

Hubert was exhilarated when he saw the emerald green color. He jumped down the steps and exclaimed. “How is it? Isn’t the car dashing?” He was like a proud parent showing off his child.

Pearl had an indescribable expression on her face. “Hubert, you have no taste at all.”

Hubert was stunned at her cominent.

Noch storted. This time, it was his turn to mock Hubert.

Noah was no better off than Hubert. In fact, both of them were just as bad. But they like to critique and ridicule each other. They were the embodiment of what a fragile brotherhood looked like.

Apart from the questioning color of the sports car, Pearl had no complaints about its performance, as Hubert had modified them himself Pearl took the car for a ride and drified on the roads. The body of the car was so light that it felt like it was about to lift off the roads.

At this moment. Connor came out of the kitchen with the dishes. He had just walked to the door when he saw that scene. He was so shocked that he envered his mouth and cheered, giving Hubert and Noah a fright.

Hubert smiled proudly. “How awesome is Pearl? I am in awe every time I see this girl behind the wheel. She is so cool”

After saying that, he sighed sofly. “Unfortunately, Pearl has retired from underground racing since a long time ago,”

By then, Connor could not take his eyes off Pearl.

She looked astonishingly ravishing.

Marc arrived at Rose Garden.

He had initially planned to go to Food Delight Diner at Admiral Old Alley to book a candlelight dinner to celebrate Pearl’s birthday

Unexpectedly, when he was on his way there, Thomas informed him that Food Delight Diner was booked out for that day.

Marc’s face darkened. “Even if you have to pay more than ten times the price, you have to book the place.”

Hence, Thomas went back to negotiate with the restaurant manager.

Ehe, it was an unfavorable outcome. “Mr. Males. The restaurant manager said that it’s not a matter of money. The restaurant has been reserved for VIP’s that day. Even if you pay hundred times the price, there is no way that you can reserve the restaurant. He would like you to change to another

Marc’s expressions tumed grim. He pursed his thin lips and said, “Let’s go to the Rose Garden.

The would have to see Pearl first.

Unfortunately, he did not see Pearl when he went to the Rose Garden

Emily was ordering people to tidy up the opened gift boxes and move them to the warehouse. There were gift boxes of all shapes and sizes all over the courtyard, and the servants were extremely busy,

Recognizing the familiar black car, Emily walked over to welcome the guest personally. “Sir, what can I do for y

you?”

Mare looked at the gift boxes in the courtyard. His dark eyes looked as calm as a quiet

He whispered. “Tim looking for Pearl

guy think he was to address Miss Pearl by her first name directly? What

Emily stared at Mare hostilely. She looked a litle displeased. Who did this guy an ill–mannered guy.

“I’m sorry, Miss Pearl isn’t here. If you have her number, please give her a call, or you can come back another day. Please forgive me for not being able to let you in.”

With that. Emily ordered her people to close the gate.

Thomas hurriedly said, “We don’t have any ill intentions. We’re here to give Miss Pearl her gifts. It is Miss Pearl’s birthday today and Mr. Males has prepared many gifts. He just wants to give them to her personally.”

Emily knew who Mr. Males was as soon as Thomas mentioned his name.

With her pair of stern eyes that had seen so many hardships, she stared intently at Mare. He was that heartless man who had caused Miss Pearl to suffer endless grievances for several years. So this was what he looked like!

“Oh, you’re here to give Miss Pearl a gift.”

Emily responded indifferently. She had no intention of letting them in at all. She merely turned around and instructed the servants who were moving the boxes, “Be careful. Those are priceless treasures in the boxes, Don’t break them. Those gifts in the warehouse that are yet to be opened should be sorted and placed properly so that Miss Pearl can open them when she is free.”

After giving her instructions, she turned around and looked troubled.

We do not have any space left. I appreciate your kindness on behalf of Miss Pearl. But you should take your gift and give it to another girl”

With that, Emily turned around and ordered coldly. “Send the guest out

Rose Garden’s gate closed with a bang in Marc’s face.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you guys? Is this how the Woolery family treats their guests?” Thomas shouted angrily. However, Marc dragged him away by his neck.

After getting into the car, Marc ordered the driver to head to Admiral Old Alley with a cold expression.

Since Pearl was not at home, she must have gone to Food Delight Diner. Only she could command the right to book the restaurant and hold the

reservation.

She had booked the entire restaurant. Was she going to hold a birthday party?

Why was he not informed?

Irritated, Marc took out his phone and called Lucas. He cut to the chase as soon as the line went through and asked, “Are you at Pearl’s birthday

On the other end of the line, Lucas replied weakly, “I want to go, but I’m not eligible. She said it was reserved for a family dinner and disallowed me

to go. Moreover, she is cooking personally tonight. Just thinking about the table full of delicious food makes me salivate.”

Marc’s eyes became thoughtful. “Got it.”

Just as he was about to hang up. Lucas asked, “Why Are you going? I need to remind you. Her brothers will probably be there. If you go, there may be blood spilled at the birthday banquet. Be careful not to love your life.”

Marc’s eyes were inenacing, and his voice was slightly cold. “Even if there will be blood spilled tonight, I have to go.”

The line was then cut. Lucas looked at his disconnected phone and sighed silently.

Marc knew that he would die, but he still wanted to court death

Lucas made the sign of a cross on his forehead and chest. He then clasped his hands together and prayed and mourned for Marc. “Amen.”

Since they were close as brothers, he would go and collect his corpse.
