Chapter85 Are You Satisfied?
Are You Satisfied?
Before she came back, Pearl'd never doubted that the accident happened seven years ago would have
something to do with Adriana, even though Ethan had reminded her many times to be more cautious.
Adriana still looked quite calm, "I'm just trying to get what I want all time."
It was simply the explanation for the deadly incident that Pearl had experienced with 7 years ago.
Pearl was furious. At this moment, the waiter came over to serve their drinks.
Without a second thought, Pearl grabbed the glass of iced water and splashed it to Adriana.
"Ah!" Everyone in the restaurant looked into their direction.
"Have you insane?"
"Who's the insane one? Me? Or you?" Pearl gritted her teeth, "How could you do such a thing?"
"I...I "
Adriana was about to say something, but when she saw the person approaching standing behind Pearl,
her face changed instantly and she cried out, "Richard..."
Pearl turned around in shock. Richard was standing less than half a meter away from her. His face
darkened, "Pearl, what the hell are you doing?"
Pearl clenched her fists. She didn't want to defend for herself.
Why did Adriana do that seven years ago? As she wanted nothing but this man.
So, if it wasn't for Richard, there wouldn't have been that accident.
At the thought of this, she clenched her fists even tighter. She felt no pain, only numb all over her body.
After a long while, she asked, "Do you know what Adriana has done?"
"What did she do?" Richard sounded extremely cold. Adriana leaned into his arms, her eyes wet. She
looked so pitiful.
"Richard, I only heard that Pearl was having some troubles in her children's schooling so I invited her
out to see if I could help her. I have no idea why she did it to me..."
"Don't be afraid." Richard took a tissue from a waiter and wiped the tears on her face while she
snuggled in his embrace. He was obviously filled with rage, even without saying anything.
Sniffs and sobs could be heard as if she was spilling out endless grievances in her. But Pearl obviously
saw cold light in her eyes.
It was a look of mockery, filled with endless scorn and cold.
She immediately why Adriana invited her here.
Adriana was sure that Pearl wouldn't speak the accident out loud in front of so many people, or telling
what had happened to her to Richard.
Richard's gaze seemed to be burning. He was still waiting for her explanation, glaring at her
aggressively.
Under such a gaze, Pearl's burning anger seemed to be slowly extinguished by cold water.
But what could she say?
Should she explain to Richard that seven years ago, she was dragged by countless pairs of filthy
hands into a dark alley where a heavy downpour ruined her youth forever?
To tell him that the reason she broke up with him back then was because she was unable to tell him the
accident on that rainy nigh?
To tell him that the reason why she left without saying goodbye was not because she cheated on
someone else, but because she was raped and pregnant?
Was she supposed to tell Richard that she refused to get an abortion because there was a tiny chance
that he could be the father, and that she had a huge fight with her family and went abroad to give birth?
To tell him that, she has never forgotten him everyday for the past seven years?
Even if she had the courage to tell him all this, would he even believe her?
What was worse was that Adriana did all these because of him.
Pearl stared at Richard for a long time before she said coldly,
"I have nothing to say. Richard. If you insist, you can believe what you saw, and I have nothing to tell
you. Goodbye, I won't disturb you two."
"Stop there!"
His cold voice came from behind, "Pearl, you humiliated my fiancee in public. Do you think I can let you
go like this?"
The moment she heard this, Pearl felt that her heart was being butchered by a big blunt knife.
After a long while, she turned around again, she lowered her eyes, "Then what do you want?"
Richard expression got even colder.
He truly hated this attitude of hers. She was obviously the one who was wrong, yet she still acted like
she was right.
The atmosphere was almost freezing, and until now, Pearl still showed no weakness.
Looking at her coldly, he said, "Adriana will do what you did to her. She will splash water on you like
how you did to her."
Each table in the restaurant had quite a distance between each other, but there were also a huge
number of people watching the scene in silent.
"Forget it." Adriana said softly in Richard's arms, "Just forget about it, Richard. I believe that Pearl didn't
do it on purpose."
Hearing this, Pearl sneered.
Adriana had no good intentions at all.
Sure enough, she whispered in the next second, "Just let her apologise and we'll be okay."
"Keep dreaming." Pearl blurted out without thinking. Her beautiful eyes were full of disgust. S
As soon as she said that, she picked up a glass of water from the table.
Richard quickly protected Adriana in his arms, he yelled, "What are you doing, Pearl?"
There was no longer any attachment in Pearl's eyes. She raised the glass of water in front of them and
poured it down on her own head.
The cold water covered her face, her chest and her back. She felt as if her heart was soaked too.
With a loud 'bang', she slammed down the glass.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Are you satisfied, Mr. Zellweger?" She stared at Richard coldly.
