The relaxing atmosphere immediately turned tense when the words 'seven years ago' were spoken out.
Pearl clenched her fists and forced a smile. She tried to sound as calm as possible, "Kind of, but not entirely. I was planning to go on my education, but applying for an university takes many days."
She watched as Richard's eyes turned ice-cold.
After all, they had a relationship of five years before, so they knew each other well. They knew how to change the topic; they also knew exactly how to hurt each other deeply.
Richard stared at her coldly. He waited for an explanation, but she didn't plan to say more. Pearl lowered her head and drank some water. She had no intention of apologizing for what happened.
"Waiter, check the bill please." Richard stood up.
On the way back, Richard didn't say a word anymore. The atmosphere in the car was terrible.
Bonny was still carefree. She couldn't sense the tension between the two adults, and kept saying childish things to herself. When they arrived, she was already fast asleep in Richard's arms.
Getting out of the car, Pearl was about to wake Bonny up. But out of her surprise, Richard carried Bonny out of the car and even asked coldly, "Which floor?"
Pearl was taken aback for a second. "The 12th floor."
"Go."
She stood rooted to the spot with a shock. Brandon tugged at her skirt. "Mom, let's go home. I'm tired."
After the elevator reached the 12th floor, Pearl went to unlock the door and led Richard into the house. They headed directly to the children's bedroom to lay Bonny on her bed.
Seeing the water dripping off Richard's shirt, Pearl apologized awkwardly, "Sorry about your shirt.
Richard shot her a cold look and said, "So easy for your to apologize for such trivial matters."
Pearl pressed her lips speechlessly.
