Mysterious Mr.Richard

After hanging up, Adriana's wicked voice still echoed in Pearl's ears. She was totally different from the one whom Pearl had used to know. 

Pearl soon received the address. It was a restaurant in the Westfield District.

Pearl stared at it for a while before driving towards it. 

On the way to the restaurant, Pearl's arm, which was holding the steering wheel, could not loosen up the whole time. Her back was also stiff. She just couldn't make herself relax. 

Had she not left Kityall for seven years, she would never know that her best friend had feelings for Richard. It was the only person in the university she had ever told about her relationship with Richard. 

Even though Pearl knew Adriana and Richard started their relationship after she had broken up with Richard, she still felt uncomfortable. She found it hard to accept the fact that her best friend had now become Richard's girlfriend. To her, this was like cheating.

Pearl arrived at the restaurant after half an hour. 

The place was very high-class. After telling the waiter her name, she was led up towards a private room on the second floor.

Adriana had already been here.

She was dressed in yellow, looking through the window beside her table. Even from afar, she was brimming with elegance as she slowly sipped from her cup of tea. Men were quick to pity women whose faces were like hers.

The waiter pulled out a chair for Pearl, "This is the menu, Miss."

"Thanks." Pearl sat down.

Adriana, whose attention was on something outside the window, finally turned her head to face Pearl. She put down her cup before greeting Pearl, "Oh, Pearl, you're here! Was there any traffic on your way here just now?"

Pearl's face darkened. "Let's get to the point. What do you want?"
