Mysterious Mr.Richard

"Look carefully, isn't this your Dr. Yonng?"

The mobile phone was faced to the crowd intentionally.

She glared at Pearl snorted. But Pearl remained silent.

Mr. Harris was a playboy. So Mrs. Harris always wanted to divorce him to get a younger handsome man. Yet she couldn't find any evidence that her husband was cheating on her before. However luckily, this morning, this anonymous video was sent.

If she took good advantage of this video, she could get a great deal of alimony.

Thinking of that, Mrs. Harris raised her voice.

"Come here, don't be shy. You can take as many photos or videos of this as you want. You can post them online to let everyone know Dr. Yonng is actually a bitch!" Onlookers were always busybodies. They really took out their mobile phones to take photos.

Pearl felt that her cheek was going numb with pain. She looked at Mrs. Harris's furious face and the crowd. She wanted to explain it but did not know where to start. "Richard, it looked like Pearl in the video." Adriana wrapped her fingers around Richard's arm tightly.

Richard still watched this indifferently. But no one knew that there was a hurricane in his eyes,

Onlookers were gathering and started pushing each other.

Richard found restless crowd were going near, so he took Adriana's slender wrist and pulled her behind him. "Be careful!"

"Ah!" Adriana cried in surprise. When she turned around, she knocked Mrs. Harris accidentally.

"Plop!"

Mrs. Harris staggered and her mobile phone dropped into the cleaner's bucket. Water splashed everywhere and the crowd gasped for the phone. Mrs. Harris rushed to save her phone, attracting most of attention from people.

Richard held Adriana's hand. He asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

Richard's concerning actions pained Pearl. She found she could not breathe. "I'm fine." Adriana replied. She lowered her eyes with silent happiness and prides. To others, now she was gentle and considerate.

"All right."Richard responded. But he also turned his head to other side to get Pearl.

In the crowd, their eyes met. Pearl could barely hide her panic. Even though she could pretend cool, Mrs. Harris's behavior was humiliating her.

FAVOURITE GAMES ON

She was in a daze before seeing the long legs next to her.

Richard stared at her when she lowered her face. His eyes were icy.

"Miss Yonng, so many surprises from you everyday."

Pearl's throat was bloody dry. Before she could say anything, Richard added, "I'll send the wedding invitation to you. Please come on time."

As soon as he finished his words, he walked away directly and left. Adriana hesitated for some seconds, but soon she caught up with him hurriedly.

Pearl's neck stiffened as rocks. She did not even have the courage to look at Richard again. She could only look blankly at the mobile phone in the water blankly when the crowd were gossiping around her. Shortly after, some security guards arrived. Mrs. Harris was so angry that she tried to grab Pearl's hair. But the security guards dragged Mrs. Harris away timely. But it was until the dean came personally to mediate did this commotion finally died down temporarily.

Outside the hospital, a car was waiting at the entrance.

After getting into the car, Richard kept quite and staring out the window all the way.

Adriana stole a few glances at him. She hesitated for a while and explained, "Richard, I think it must be a mistake. Pearl isn't that kind of person. I've known her for many years, I know that she treasures herself."

Richard seemingly agreed her.

He recollected the day he met Pearl around Mr. Harris's ward. She was flustered. But he still responded nonchalantly, "Oh?"

"Yes, but..."

Adriana observed Richard's expression. She continued carefully, "But, Pearl also has a wired temper. She got into a serious fight with her family for going abroad. Uncle Anthony got so angry that he even got hospitalized. But she still left. No one can know what was actually on her mind."

Adriana knew better than everyone that Richard was tormented for Pearl's leaving.

But Richard seemed he could not care less.

So Adriana added more stubbornly. "Our friends guessed that Pearl left with a man..."

Richard's eyes darkened. Instantly, his eyes flickered with anger. "Since when did you like gossiping?"

Adriana's heart skipped a beat for his words. She forced a smile. "Just some rumors. I know Pearl is definitely not like that. Besides, back then, she and you just "

Before she could finish, something dawned on her. Her face turned pale.☐☐☐
