Time Travel to Become Your Sweetheart novel Chapter 149

"Are you saying that William hasn't gone to work for you all day?"

Pearl said in surprise.

In the celebrity circle, Mr. William was definitely the one who hoped he could work all year long without rest. It was said he went to work after his wedding.

Fever was nothing serious. Everything would be fine once the fever was brought down. William actually stayed at home for Jane. It was really rare.

"Yes."

Jane put on a long face. It was probably more than a day. William would also accompany her these days.

Her company was going to launch a new product and there was a briefing followed. Jane didn't want to miss it.

"I'm jealous."

Pearl shook her head. Few ordinary men would quit work for their sick wife, not to mention a man like William.

"Janie, the necklace you're wearing is a rare pink diamond!"

Jane lowered her head, revealing the necklace on her collarbone. Pearl's eyes immediately lit up. She liked this pink diamond necklace very much. For this, she even went to all the big auctions.

Finally, she got some news, but she missed it again.

The auction house didn't provide personal information. Pearl could only return disappointed.

"This was originally a ring. You changed it to a necklace!"

Yes, it was a diamond, very rare in the jewelry world, as good as "Incomparable".

Compared to yellow diamonds, Pearl liked pink diamonds more because it was purer.

"Janie, could you give it to me?"

Pearl excitedly pulled Jane's hand. She didn't care about the money. She could use her private stash for exchange.

"Sorry, if it was other jewelry, I'll give it to you. But this one..."

Jane shook her head to express her apology.

Although she wanted to satisfy Pearl, this pink diamond necklace was what she treasured the most.

Not only because of its value, but also because it was given by William. He bid it and redesigned it into a necklace.

He understood her preferences. He knew, as a ring, it was a bit of a show.

"So that's the case."

Pearl nodded. If that was the case, she couldn't make this request. She couldn't snatch things from Mr. William.

However, such a cold, unapproachable and strict man would know a woman's likes and dislikes?

It was very likely that everything was a disguise. William might also have strange habits. He might be awkwardly adorable.

Pearl secretly glanced at William and nodded, thinking she saw through the truth.

"If you like it, find a man and buy it for you. Don't steal my wife's things."

William raised his eyebrows and said coldly.

Pearl was rendered speechless.

What about his gentlemanly consideration? His words hurt!

She turned to Robert who was gloating. She stepped hard on his foot under the table, venting her anger at him.

Robert looked at the sky. Who did he offend?

It took Pearl half a minute to calm down. Then she grabbed a handful of melon seeds, saying, "I saw Mr. Andrew and Sophia dating last night when I went to ride."

Andrew taught Sophia how to ride a horse. They rode a horse together and it seemed that they had a good relationship.

If that was the case, it was not surprising. After all, Andrew took "Incomparable" back from Daisy and gave it to Sophia.

"What is so strange about it?"

Their families were bound to be connected by marriage. For their common interest, the basic situation won't change unless the other side went bankrupt.

Andrew hadn't come to William ever since that accident in Princess Faith. They weren't as close as before.

"Daisy is there too, and she is trying hard to please Mr. Andrew."

Pearl smiled sarcastically. Daisy was always arrogant, always used to trampling on others' dignity. Who would have thought that there would be a day when she has to win over a man from an illegitimate daughter?

Pearl just needed to watch the farce. She found out her revenge had gone smoothly. All she needed to do was waiting for Daisy to find trouble for herself.

After waiting for half an hour, all the dishes were served. Roast duck, braised meat, stir-fried bean, stewed pig kidney, spicy chicken, fried bamboo shoot, and the most famous pastries, pea cake and glutinous rice rolls.

They were all the most orthodox dishes, with a good appearance and fragrance.

"I'll forgive your mistake. Come, I'll get you some food."

Pearl glanced at Robert and came up with an idea. She picked up a piece of stewed pig kidney and said, "I know you're weak. Here, it is nutritious."

It was rather to be thought of than expressed.

"Thanks."

Robert gritted his teeth. He knew this woman was up to no good, but he had to bear it.

The dishes were extremely good, but he seemed to lose his taste.

William and Jane remained quiet. It might be that they were trying to refrain from laughing aloud.

"I used a new pair of chopsticks, so you couldn't disappoint me."

Robert stood up, looking gentle and refined. He picked up a rice roll and then put it on Pearl's plate with a smile, "These rolls are like a woman who threw a tantrum, rolling on the ground."

"Here are winter bamboo shoots. Come on. It suits you."

Pearl was almost choked. But she continued adding food for Robert.

"Spicy chicken. I'm sure you'll like it..."

They kept putting food in each other's bowls. Soon, their bowls were piled up.

William calmly took the plate and took Jane to the other side. He totally ignored Pearl and Robert who were competing.

After eating, Robert was already dizzy. Pearl did not drink. Robert just drank one glass.

"He could only drink one glass?"

Pearl couldn't believe it. No way! Was he pretending?

Her chance of revenge came! Pearl came behind Robert and pinched his face, rubbing his face into various shapes.

Pearl couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Jane mourned for Robert for three seconds. Such a poor man.

"This is his address. You are responsible for sending him back."

William handed Pearl a business card with Robert's address on it.

"Why me?"

Pearl protested. It was her kindness if she didn't throw him to the river. Why would she send her enemy back home?

"It can only be you."

William took Jane out.

He would waste at least half an hour to send Robert home. It was cold. He didn't want Jane to bear this, so he asked Pearl to do this.

"Mr. William, aren't you afraid that I will..."

Pearl bared his teeth. There was a cold glint in her eyes.

"You can do whatever you want."

William started the car, and soon disappeared.

Jane was still a little worried. It was a little unfair to leave Robert to Pearl.

"So what?"

William kept a straight face. Robert spoke ill of him in the chat group, totally forgetting that he was the boss. He should give Robert a little punishment.

"Don't worry. He definitely won't be the one to suffer."

His wife always worried about other men, which made William very unhappy.

"No, he's too heavy. I'm worried that Pearl won't be able to lift him. Moreover, it's late at night. Pearl has to take a detour to send him home."

Jane emphasized that she was worried about Pearl, not Robert.

In this way, the atmosphere went normal.

William changed too quickly. Jane couldn't quite catch it. She felt his mood changed without rhyme or reason.

In short, William yielded to soft approaches. She had to coax him often. When he was in a good mood, she would also get the benefit.
