Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 103

The banquet was held majestically. The Louise family booked the entire Mountain Hotel, and had arranged rooms for every guest to rest in.

Richard drank quite a lot and was helped to the room by a waiter. Adriana stayed in the hall as she needed to inform the Louise family that they'er leaving.

Richard usually had a better alcohol tolerance, but for some reason, even though he didn't drink too much today, he felt that his steps were a little weak and his vision a little blurry. 

After lying on the hotel bed with his eyes closed for a while, he took out his phone from his pocket and dialled a number, "Ten minutes later, pick me up at the entrance of the hotel..."

"Sure." Ted said on phone. 

After hanging up, Richard's eyes were still closed. However, the scene of Pearl being surrounded by the Louise family members was still lingering in front of him.

He'd made countless speculations, but he never expected she to be married.

Perhaps it was due to the effect of alcohol, but Richard's usual calm and rational nature had completely vanished. He now felt it impossible to suppress the wild emotions spreading inside his heart as if they were poisoned vines crawling into his heart.

His body heated up for no reason, and his gradually fell into a dream woven by memories.

"Richard, let's break up. I don't want to see you anymore."

In that summer seven years ago, under the shades of the camphor tree in Jaquel East Street i, Pearl had said these words to him coldly. 

Before this, they had been in a cold war for more than a month. This was the longest time they had ever been in a cold war since they got together. However, at that time he'd just started working and was quite busy after graduating, so he didn't notice that there was something wrong with her.

At that time, he thought she was just trying to make a little fuss as usual. It was not until a month later that he finally realised Pearl hadn't looked for him for so long.

A man who had been in a relationship for a long time would know the bottom line of his girlfriend. 

Back then, Richard was no exception. When he realised that something wasn't right, he ] called Pearl right away and rushed over to her house. 

But all he heard was: "Sorry, the number you had dialled has not been answered for the time being. Please call later."

He had heard it quite a few times in the past month. But because he was busy with work, he didn't pay much attention to it. Now he finally realised that something was wrong.

He waited for three days at the her apartment and called Pearl countless times. Finally, after three days, Pearl showed up and said, "Let's break up."

What she said was comprehensive and concise. She was so indifferent and mechanical.

Although dreams were a reflection of the reality, it was more about people's subjective speculations.

In Richard's dream, Pearl's face was always full of pride and loneliness. This was the Richard's impression of her in the past seven years. Every time he had a dream of the past, the pain would be deepened.

Back then, in the face of the sudden breakup, Richard, at the age of 22, didn't realise the severity of the matter. They were both hot-tempered people and usually quarrelled. The words "break up" used to be a common thing.

"Stop making a fuss, Pearl. I'll take you to a trip after I'm free. I was too busy at work."

"I'm not joking. It's my problem."

Pearl stared at him and said, "I have fallen for someone else."
