Mysterious Mr.Richard

Pearl had two operations this morning, and she kept busy until 1 pm. When she finally left the operation room, she was so tired that she couldn't even lift her arms. She then get changed and went to her office.

"Dr. Yonng, someone is waiting for you in the office."

Before she arrived at her office, she was stopped by a nurse at the duty desk, who then asked: "Is that your husband? He looks so handsome."

A name flashed across Pearl's mind. But she denied the thought in the next second. 

The nurse had met Richard before and she knew that his girlfriend was Adriana. 

She understood who the man was after she opened the office door. 

"Alex, why are you here?" Pearl greeted him. 

It was Alex, dressed in a refreshing blue casual suit. He tapped on the lunch box he put on table with his slender fingers and smiled, "Let's have lunch together."

Pearl's office was decorated in a very plain style. She had just resumed her job and was so busy that she seldom had time to have lunch in her office. She never even bothered decorating her office.

The food that Alex brought was home-cooked, which looked very yummy. 

"This is really good." Pearl commended as she ate. 

"My mother made this meal."

"Really? Her cooking is such good?" Pearl asked in surprise. 

"She's already retired and had a lot of spare time. She loves cooking and is always afraid that I don't have time to eat well at the hospital."

"Wow, I'm jealous of you."

"About what?"
