FreeNovel"I'm not. | can't call you my sidekick, can 1?" Pearl teased.
Richard's expression turned serious. "You better not."
"When did you two get together?" Hanzel observed their closeness and the groceries they bought, acting like a married couple. He was genuinely
surprised. "Didn't your wedding just get called off, Rick? Why are you back with Pearl so soon?"
Richard's face darkened. "Do you think your life is a little too comfortable now?"
Knowing his brother was angry, Hanzel avoided saying anything and instead glanced at Feather.

Feather promptly knocked his head with her knuckle. "I told you to just mind your own business."
Pearl couldn't believe the change in expression on Feather's usually cold face. She recalled their first meeting, when Feather seemed uninterested in
anyone or anything. The girl back then wouldn't have engaged in interactions with people or gotten a boyfriend. Yet here she was now, more
animated, all because of Hanzel.
While she was away, the young lady actually becromantically involved... It was a pity that she missed that.
Richard wrapped an arm around Pearl's waist, his tone still sharp. "Stop thinking about others." Knowing Pearl's nosy nature, he didn't want her to
dwell on how Hanzel and Feather got together.
"Why didn't | know you were so jealous before?" Pearl remarked.
Richard lowered his voice. "You know now."
"Alright, I'm not interested in your PDA. Fifi is very shy and doesn't want to show our love in public,” Hanzel said, trying to lighten the mood. But he
immediately got a slap after saying that. "Not the face. | need it for my job."
Feather's cold expression made her warning sound ominous. "If you continue, | might not stop at your face."
Hanzel feigned sadness but secretly enjoyed the attention. "This feels kinky..."

Pearl rolled her eyes and raised her chin at Feather. "Discipline him. If he acts up, beat him up."
Richard nodded in agreement.
Feeling outnumbered, Hanzel pretended to be crestfallen, hoping for sympathy from Feather. "Look how sad | am. No one's on my side, so you can't
bully me. If you do, there'll be no one to feel sad for me."
Feather realized she might have gone too far and was about to speak up when Pearl suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, it's Hanzel Waldorf!"
The quiet grocer overheard and becexcited. "Hanzel? Where is he?"
