My Ex-Husband Wants Me Again

Chapter 101

Prail and Mare dressed neatly and exited the room.

There was a cafe on the hotel's ground floor, and Quentin sat there with his legs crossed, projecting a commanding presence as he watched the approaching duo from afar, squinting slightly,

kven when walking hand in hand, some couples appeared to be enveloped in a rosy aura, as though they were destined to be the perfect match.

If not for the fact that this man had neglected Pearl for three years and had not treated her well, Quentin personally had thought that these two would make a good pair.

To Quentin, whether it was in terms of appearance or family background, Mare was barely a

a match for Pearl.

Quentin maintained his composure and responded casually with a "Hmm, gesturing for her to take a seat. Marc was about to sit beside Pearl when he heard a cold reprimand from Quentin, who said, "Did I say you could sat

Marc hesitated momentarily but proceeded to sit down firmly, his gaze lacked onto Quentin, seemingly conveying the message, "I am seated now, So, what are you going to do about it?"

Quentin narrowed his eyes icily and issued a menacing warning. "Mare, you better keep your facial expressions in check. The last person who looked at me this way ended up as shark food in the Pacific Ocean."

Mare sneered with a hint of mockery as he retorted, "Coincidentally, the last person who dared to address me like this found themselves in the cycle of reincarnation.

"Do you know that I have the ability to send you back to the womb?"

Quenun retorted in response, "Oh, do you believe that I will toss you into the Pacific Ocean to feed the sharks?"

"Come on, try it." Marc said as he continued to taunt Quentin.

In just three exchanges, these two grown men were on the brink of a brawl. Pearl could not bear it and hurriedly wedged herself between them. pushing them back onto the sofa. Crying exasperatedly, she said, "Enough! Will the two of you ever stop! Are you guys in elementary school?"

Quentin emitted a cold snort, saying, "I've never encountered a man with such immaturity."

Pearl turned to glare at him and warned, "You, say one less word

Marc sneered, "Then, how mature are you?"

Pearl turned around again, reminding sterly, "You shut up too!"

Having consumed a large amount of alcohol the previous night and lacking Emily's hangover remedy, Pearl was now suffering from a mild headache. She felt lightheaded even while standing, and her temper flared. Her complexion paled slightly. Mare noticed her discomfort and promptly moved to her side, asking. "Are you feeling unwell? Come, take a seat"

He assisted Pearl in sitting down and personally fetched a glass of hot water from the front desk. Handing it to her, he gently blew on it a few times, cautioning. "Sip slowly. Be careful, it's bot." Observing Marc's attentive care for Pearl, Quentin allowed a trace of his cold exterior to soften. Regardless of whether he genuinely cared, he could discern the underlying dynamies as a man. Pearl disdainfully brushed aside Marc's hand and sipped the hot water on her own, feeling much better.

Quentin cleared h

Pead raised her gaze and inquired, "What do you mean?"

Ignoring Pearl, Quentin shifted his attention to Marc and continued, saying, "You have made certain missteps and avoided certain responsibilities. Don't tell me you're uncertain about your next course of action" Marc arched an eyebrow in confusion and asked, "What do you mean, Quentin!"

March's choice of words came so naturally that Pearl nearly choked on her water.

On the other hand. Quentin saw nothing amiss with it and found it completely appropriate. "Let's not dwell on the past, Quentin replied as he waved his hand, surprisingly magnanimous. Chapter 101

He cast a sidelong glance at Pearl with a tinge of exasperation, he explained. This girl used to extol your virtues day in and day out, insisting on marrying you. My ears grew calloused from it... Pearl's face flushed, and she protested, "Quentin!"

Just a moment ago, he had advised against delving into the past. Those

e were her private secrets, and the hoped they would remain buried forever.

"Alright, alright, I would not bring up your past, Quentin relented, not eager to further provoke the beloved Pearl.

He turned his attention back to Marc and stated, "Over the past three years, you have not treated Pearl well. As her brothers, we have kept track of it in our hearts. I am not one to harbor grudges, and I look forward to seeing how you will change. Can you make amends through your actions and treat her well!

"Since you have chosen to start anew, do it properly if you wish to date. If you want to be together, be together properly. Should you ever attempt to toy with Pearl, I can assure you that the legend of being cast into the Pacific to satiate the sharks won't remain a myth-it will become your reality."

Quentin's words made Mare turn serious, and it left Pearl utterly bewildered.

She wondered, "What did I just heart Did Quentin unilaterally declare that we're together?

"What does he mean by dating properly? Who'd even want to date him?"

"Quentin, that's absurd. Pearl commented as she furrowed her brow,

She was about to dispute Quentin's statement when Marc interjected. He clasped Pearl's hand firmly and made a solemn pledge, saying, "Quentin, rest assured, from this moment onward, I'll prioritize her and treat her well"

His words were directed at both Quentin and Pearl

Quentin sought only a commitment from Marc.

Upon hearing this promise, he refrained from comment. After all, the young man had spoken these words. If he failed to uphold his pledge. Quentin, as Pearl's older brother, would either compel him to comply or make him suffer the consequences. Pursuing Pearl meant exhibiting corresponding sincerity. There was no free ride in this world, especially when it came to marriage.

Strikingly, Pearl and Quentin were on entirely different wavelengths. They felt as though these two gr seethed with anger, violently disengaging from Marc's grasp, and retoned, "Have you lost your mind? Who'd want to be with your

Mare looked up at her, questioning. Haven't we already...

Pearl replied, Just a night together, if you feel aggrieved, I can compensate you"

As she spoke, Pearl reached for her wallet, but Marc abruptly seized her wrist.

His voice was gruff as he inquired, "Pearl, what am I to your

Pearl yanked her wrist free, her demeanor icy, and retorted, "A mere fling, what else could it be?"

Marc's deep-set eyes abruptly narrowed. Was she attempting to humiliate him in such a manner? She truly knew how to hurt him!

Quentin, standing by, could not help but stifle a laugh. Pearl had indeed matured,

Cutting with words, she had quite a repertoire of skills.

While she adopted this stance, he was not concerned that she would be at a disadvantage. He followed his desires, not his emotions. This was his approach to matters,

Marc perceived the disdain in her eyes, offered a faint smile, and said, "Well, we are a family."

"Family, my foot. Pearl scoffed inwardly.

"Who's family with you?" Pearl retorted, shooting him an icy glare.

She climbed into her car, and before she could shut the door, Marc swiftly followed, buckling his seatbelt.

"What are you doing?" Pearl questioned as she furrowed her brow.

Marc met her gaze and said earnestly, "I'm in pain and do not feel like driving. Can you give me a ride?"

Pearl clenched her teeth and was at a loss for words. Inwardly, she cursed, "I'll drive you to the ends of the earth!"
