Chapter 204

“Pearl and I saw you hugging another woman. Also, did you even come to visit Pearl when she was

sick and in the hospital? Mobius told me that your company’s newly promoted design director came to

challenge Pearl under the guise of visiting her. Don’t tell me you’re so lovey-dovey with that woman

now.”

Richard retorted coldly, “It’s not what you think.”

“I might not know the whole truth, but I do know that Pearl needs me right now. You’ll just end up

making her miserable.” Hanzel snorted. “She texted me first this time. One day, I’ll be more important to

her than you.”

Although it sounded childish, Hanzel was dead serious.

Realizing that arguing with Hanzel would be pointless, Richard didn’t bother to say much, especially

given Hanzel’s confident look. He got up and left the ward.

When Pearl returned with the water, Richard was already gone. She asked, “Is he gone?” Hanzel

casually replied, “Yeah, he left after hearing what I had to say. Too ashamed to stay.’ “Okay, don’t get

out of bed and rest well. I’ll take care of you until you’re fully recovered.” Flattered, Hanzel asked, “You

want to take care of me? What about your work?”

The mention of her work brought a wave of bitterness to Pearl, but she concealed her emotions. “It’s

fine. After all, I’ve lost my job, and someone else is the new design director. I have the time and energy

to look after you.”

“I knew that Richard was unreliable.” Hanzel muttered through gritted teeth, vowing not to let Pearl slip

away again. He then looked at Pearl and said, “Just focus on resting here for now. By the way, I have a

suggestion for you now that you’re not working. Would you like to give it a try?”

Pearl, masking her sadness, asked, “What do you suggest?”

Grinning, Hanzel proposed, “My agent had to take a one-month leave because of family matters.

Would you like to be my temporary agent?”

An agent? Pearl was stunned. Despite owning an entertainment company, she had never worked as an

agent.

“Forget it. I don’t have any experience in that.”

However, Hanzel refused to give up. “You’re taking care of me, aren’t you? It won’t be too much to

handle it for a little longer, right? You’re the best, Pearl. Look at my injuries. They’re so painful. Can you

really send me to the set alone?” His acting was so obvious, he couldn’t even muster up a tear.

Helpless, Pearl said, “I’ll find you a suitable agent.”

“No, I don’t want to. I’m sure nobody wants it since it’s just going to be a month. Besides, ordinary

people can’t do it given my identity…” Hanzel grabbed Pearl’s arms and swayed it, begging her.

Hearing that, Pearl nodded helplessly. “Okay, I promise. But you’ve got to rest well so you can get out

of the hospital sooner.” “Will do.”

Over the next few days, Richard never visited the hospital again while Pearl took care of Hanzel.

Occasionally, Hugo paid a visit to Hanzel.

Hanzel was unaware of Hugo’s schemes and still regarded the latter as his gentle and quiet brother.

The day Pearl went out, Hugo came and chatted with Hanzel under the pretense of checking up on

him.

“You know what? Abby is dead.”

Although Hanzel had suspected as much, his heart skipped a beat upon hearing the news.

“Abby deserved it. She tried to harm Pearl numerous times, even plotting to kill her. She would just be

trouble if she lived.” Hanzel trembled with anger as he recalled the things Abby had done to Pearl.

“It looks like you care about Pearl so much. Don’t tell me you’re in love with her.” Hugo probed,

pretending to chat casually

with Hanzel but actually attempting to gauge his feelings.
