Chapter 806
"You''re getting married so quickly?" Pearl mumbled almost to herself.

"Yeah, I''m getting married next month. Do you want toe?"
In Pearl''s mind, marriage had always seemed like a distant topic. She and Richard had agreed to
get engaged first, and they would only marry after Pearl found her mother.
But their rtionship ended when they found her.
Seeing the wedding invitation now, she felt a sense of loss and mncholy. "Oh, I won''t go."
Pearl had been considering if Richard was protecting her exclusively, but the harsh reality shattered
her fantasies. His rtionship with his fiancee was good, so of course he was too busy to care
about Pearl.
She silently scolded herself for her misced hopes, realizing she had been fooling herself.
"Alright." Richard ended that topic.
Soon, they arrived at Cerubleu. As Richard parked the car, Pearl opened the door and hurried out
despite the rain.
Her haste moved Richard. "It''s raining outside. Take the umbre."
"Thank you, but I''ll be fine." Pearl shook her head and held the documents securely. Then, she
braved the heavy rain and rushed into thepany.

Meanwhile, Estre followed Ss closely.
Ss was growing frustrated because he felt Estre was walking too slowly. He turned around with
a gloomy expression, the ck umbre shielding his face. "Can you walk faster? You''re so slow.
Are you a turtle?"
It wasn''t the first time Estre had heard such harsh words. She didn''t argue but replied gently,
"Alright, I''ll pick up the pace."
As they spoke, it felt like they were transported back in time.
The awkwardness that followed made it hard for Ss to say anything more. He silently extended
the umbre to cover her.
In the confined space of the car, their awkwardness reached its peak.
Estre could have distanced herself from him, but she hadn''t, so the umbre didn''t provide much
protection, leaving her shoulders and half of her hair drenched.
Seeing her sitting there like that, with her wet body, Ss couldn''t bear it. He grabbed a piece of
clothing from the back and draped it over her.
He had done it impatiently, but Estre was still moved. "Thank you."
"I don''t want you to get a fever before we arrive."
Estre thought of something and blurted out, "Are you worried about me?" But she regretted
asking the question as soon as it left her lips.
As expected, Ss looked incredulous. "What nonsense are you thinking? Pearl asked me to drive
you home. If you get sick and it affects the shooting, it will impact her ie."
"So, you''re doing this for Pearl..." Estre lowered her head in disappointment.
"We''ve broken up. Logically, we shouldn''t have any ties left. It''s just a coincidence today. Let''s forget
about it."
Suddenly, Estre''s eyes became watery. "Did you stop loving me when we broke up?"
Ss was stunned, as he hadn''t expected her to ask that question.
