Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 20

It had been raining for a week. The monsoon season made people gloomy. Everything was seemingly wet and moldy.

But the president's office of Zellweger Group was filled with an aroma of coffee.

Richard just finished a meeting. He signed a document and handed it to Ted. "Get this to the financial department to recheck it. If there's no problem, tell the law department to contact the clients."

"Yes, sir."

"About Mr. Stewart's project, lower 3% of their price. If they refuse this, tell them that Greatsky Group is offering a better price to us."

"Yes, sir. If everything goes well, we'll definitely get Mr. Stewart's project. The sales department has been working on the contract."

"Hum." Richard nodded. He picked up his coffee and took a sip.

"By the way, Mr. Zellweger, Miss Evelina sends you an invitation."

Ted fished out the invitation card from a pile of documents and placed it on the desk. He continued, "This Saturday is her birthday. The Yonng family will hold a birthday party at the Sea cloud Hotel."

"Evelina whom?"

" The lead actress in the film our company just invested. You've met her at one dinner."

Yes, Richard knew Evelina. Evelina was the lead actress of the movie as well as the sister of Pearl.

"I know you're not interested in this party. So I'll prepare a gift for you to her and tell her that you're busy..."

Richard narrowed his eyes at the card. He parted his lips slightly, "No, I have time on Saturday."

Ted was surprised. After few moments, he snapped back to his senses and replied, "Yes, sir, I'll let them know."

Richard did not touch the card. Instead, he got the report of the two children. Ted had prepared it a few days ago.

Richard flipped to the first page. It was the children's date of birth.

It happened to be seven years ago, when Pearl just broke up with him and called off the engagement.

Could he be their father?
