It was not that Pearl had never cooked for Marc before.
In her memory, she had made Marc a few meals and had done it in a unique way every time. Pearl had thought that he would definitely fall in love with her as long as he ate the food she cooked. In the end, he did not even look at the food

called Pearl Shepard.
Now that she thought about it, she wished she could transmigrate back and slap herself hard twice to wake up the woman cal Marc wouldn't love her no matter what. Stop dreaming!
Now that he suddenly wanted to eat the food she cooked. Wasn't he afraid that she would hold a grudge and poison him with food! Pearl sneered and said to Mason. "Then go to the Food Delight Diner. Just let Darren cook two dishes. Also, prepare a cheque for one million dollars out of my personal account."
Mason noted her instructions and asked suspiciously, "If you give him a cheque, can be rake it?"
"It's up to me to give it to him. It's up to him to take it or not."
Pearl thought for a moment and looked at the painting on the wall. She muttered, "If he doesn't want money and I don't want to owe him, I can only trade things for things" Mason followed Pearl's gaze and saw the painting Sunflowers. He was surprised.
"You want to give the painting to him?" said Mason. "Isn't the painting your proud work? Previously, someone wanted to spend two million dollars to buy it but you didn't sell it." Pearl said calmly, "What proud work? It was just casually drawn when I was young. Only my father treats it as a treasure. It's a pity that my current hands can not draw a fake one. Pearl let out an almost imperceptible sigh. But she did not feel too much pity. After all, her interest was more in carving than in forgery. She did not dare to lose her ancestral craftsmanship.

Mare did not leave his room for almost an entire day. He held two video conferences and spent the rest of the time in front of his computer, re- cultivating his computer skills
Lucas looked at Marc who had gone back to his old job and said helplessly. "It's been so many years. Are you really planning to find it? What exactly do you want to investigate? Tll help you do it." "No, thanks," said Marc.
Mare directly refused Lucas "It's better to rely on yourself than on others. You might not be able to find out what I want to find out Lucas's heart broke when he was looked down upon
Seeing that it was about time. Marc turned off his computer and changed his clothes. He even neatly tied a tie and the cufflinks. He was and changed into another pair. Obviously, he took the date seriously. s not satisfied
Lucas crossed his arms and leaned to the side. He kept clicking his tongue. "Okay, okay, You're handsome enough. Those who don't know might think you're going on a blind date"

The next second, Lucas said, "No. You wouldn't take it so seriously if it were a blind date. I still can't believe it. Did you hear wrongly? Pearl wants to treat you to dinner?" "What" said Mare, looking up at Lucas. Do you have a problem with that?"
"I don't have any opinions hot a suggestion," said Lucas
Lucas walked over and chose a new tie for Marc. "You wear

Mare looked at the red and then at Lucas with a puzzled expression, "Are you sure?"

Lucas started tying it up for Marc. He said. "I have more experience with the kind of thing than you do. Where are you guys going to eat tonight Pearl going to cook for you? Can I crash a meal with you?" "No" Marc datly rejected him.

And how much effort did Lucas have to put in to expel Mare from the depths of Pearl's heart?
The difficulty was probably comparable to moving a mountain. Forget it. He did not have the perseverance.

Pearl greeted Marc and was about to get into her car, gesturing for him to follow her. However, Mare got out of the car and grabbed her wrist. Take my car."
I don't think so," said Pearl, frowning slightly and moving her wrist
She did not know if there was something wrong with Mare, When they were husband and wife, he avoided her like the plague. After their divorce. he would not hesitate to hold her hand and make intimate contact with her. He did not despise her now? Mare did not let go of Pearl's wrist. His gaze was calm, but there was an indescribable persistence.
"You take my car, or I take yours. Your choice," said Marc.
Pearl looked at him speechlessly.
Was he asking her to choose freely!
Pearl looked up coldly and said, "Are you driving? I'll get in your car if you're driving."
Pearl knew that Marc's mental illness had not been fully cured since the car accident, although his body had returned to normal. He drove himself since then.
Her request was making things difficult for him.
Marc lowered his gaze slightly and looked deeply at her. Then, he opened the pa

Marc asked the chauffeur and Thomas to follow Mason When Marc was about to climb into the cockpit, the chauffeur and Thomas looked flustered and called out anxiously, "Mr. Males." "It's okay, I can do it"
Mare said calmly, then closed the door and adjusted the seat. He had not held the steering wheel for many years. His knuckles were slightly curled and he felt like it had been a lifetime. Pearl sat in the I
