Chapter 574

“What’s going on?” 

Pearl found herself face to face with the person she least wanted to meet at the worst possible moment–Richard. 

She looked at him standing before her and offered an awkward smile. “Nothing much. My car just ran out of gas. I’ve called for a tow truck, and I’ll grab a cab later.” 

Richard frowned and said, “Do you need a ride?” 

In the past, he would have insisted on taking her with him, but now he had to politely offer assistance. 

Pearl shook her head. “No, I can manage.” 

Richard suddenly got excited. “Didn’t you say I’m your boyfriend? Shouldn’t I help if that’s the case?” Although he was reluctant to acknowledge their relationship status, he still held the title, so he felt obligated to do his best. 

Pearl couldn’t help but feel the irony. He was offering help because of their relationship status, not because of his love for her. 

Taking

deep breath, she replied, “It’s fine. I can deal with this.” 

Richard looked at her intently. “Alright, I’m heading off then.” 

Pearl watched as he drove away and felt a sense of sadness welling up 

inside her. 

“Why are you standing here?” 

Another familiar voice interrupted her thoughts. 

Pearl turned around and knew her tears were going to be noticed. 

Damian indeed saw it and rolled his eyes. “Wasn’t that your boyfriend? Why didn’t he help you?” 

Pearl smiled sadly. “Didn’t I already tell you yesterday? Why would he help me?” 

“So why are you still with him? He doesn’t love you anymore, so continuing this just hurts you,” Damian remarked, sounding like he was mocking her, but he still grabbed her arm and pulled her into his car. “Leave your car here, and I’ll arrange for a tow truck to come later.” 

Pearl looked up in shock. “You’re attending the party too?” 

“Yes, I’m a Scott,” Damian replied as he started the engine, resting one hand on the steering wheel and the other on Pearl’s head. “Don’t be sad. If you can’t handle this, I’ll take you back to Aflus with me.” Sadness flickered in his eyes as he saw her in this state. 

Pearl sniffled but didn’t say anything.
