Mysterious Mr.Richard

The atmosphere between Richard and Pearl turned a bit awkward, so Pearl tried changing the topic once again. "Are Bonny and Brandon still here in campus? I'm sorry, and I'll pick them up now."

"Ted took them for lunch. Do you know what time is it now? How could you leave the kids starving. Are you still their mom?" Richard answered coldly.

Hearing this, Pearl didn't refute.

Richard had been acting very indifferent towards her after she returned home from abroad. Whenever he was around, she always felt uneasy and guilty for no reason. 

"Okay, let's go."

"Huh? Where?"

"I thought you were going to pick up your kids?" Richard's gaze darkened as he said, "Or you'd like to have a chat with Alexander again? If so, how about I'll send the kids home later?"

His words made Pearl tongue-tied. She forced herself to follow him.

Richard answered a phone call on the way to the restaurant. He looked like he had just turned something down on the phone.

After Richard hung up, Pearl said hurriedly, "If you are busy, you can just tell me where the restaurant is. I can go there myself. Don't worry."

"You're overthinking." Richard replied without even didn't even look at her, "I need to go to lunch anyway."

Hearing this, Pearl pursed her lips and followed Richard behind.
