Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 80

The heavy downpour took away the scorching heat that had been terrorizing Kityall City for days. There was a rainbow at dusk. 

After they arrived at Pearl's apartment, they saw Richard's assistant when they came down from the car. He nodded at Pearl by way of greeting when he saw her.

"Let me do it, I'm sorry to trouble you today." Pearl took the sleeping Bonny from Richard. 

"Let's go up. The wind's acting up again." He said faintly. 

They had been playing the whole afternoon and the weather was also bad. It was easy to catch a cold. 

Pearl nodded, "Well, you'd better go back early. Remember to drink some hot tea after you get back. Don't take too many propulsid. It has some nasty side effects."

"Okay."

Thinking that Richard had plenty of servants and a fiancée to take care of him, Pearl forced a smile before holding Brandon's hand and went upstairs. 

Richard didn't stay here too long. He ordered his assistant to drive him home after Pearl entered the building. 

In the car, the assistant carefully said, "Mr. Zellweger, Jacob called you just now."

"Really? What's going on?"

"Miss Wood's waiting for you at home."

Hearing this, Richard frowned, "What day is it today?"

He had been with Adriana for two years. Apart from necessary occasions, Adriana would never go to his apartment. 

"I don't think today is any special day." His assistant said. 

Richard stopped asking any further questions. He leaned back on his seat and closed his eyes to have a short rest. He thought she just had something to discuss with him and that was it.

But Ted felt inexplicably nervous.

He felt that something was going to happen recently. Ever since Dr. Yonng showed up, his boss had become a totally different person. He now wasn't even sure if the wedding could be held on time. 

Now the night fell. 

Pearl closed the windows, settled the two kids into their beds and closed their room door. She then took out a can of beer and settled down on the sofa.

White foam shot out from an opening on the beer can after Pearl jerked it open. 

Pearl raised the can and took a sip. She then curled up and leaned against the pillows with her eyes looking at the wide ceiling. Soon, she was lost in her thoughts.

Her phone had notified her that she had received some messages. At first, she thought it was sent by Ethan so she didn't to bother to have a look. For now, she would finish her beer first. But to her surprise, Alex turned out to be the sender. Her eyes widened as she saw "Alexander" name in his message. 

Alex asked, "Alexander suddenly asked me for your messenger account from me. What do you think of it?"

Probably because she didn't reply, another batch of messages reached her phone.

"If you're not willing, I'll turn him down."

"Oh right, have you thought about Dr. Morgan's offer to teach at the university?" Alex then asked. 

"You don't have to be so awkward to become Alexander's coworker, you know. You two did two different majors so you may not have to get along with him." 

Alex was a thoughtful person. He would always take care of important people around him. He usually went into great detail in everything he did for his friends so that they would never feel mistreated.
