The crowd had dispersed, Patrick helped Pearl up and inquired,
“Are you alright?”
Pearl shook her head,
“It’s alright sir.”
“I’ve booked a room here. You can go wash up first. I’ll have someone buy you a new
set of clothes. After then go to the hospital. You have many injuries.”
Pearl stared at Patrick in a daze. Although she was always clinging to Gabriella, she
had never spoken to Patrick.
Pearl thanked him with a pale face,
“Okay, thank you sir.”
Patrick left the room for Pearl and went to socialize. It was a presidential suite.
Pearl had never lived in a presidential suite. Everything thing here made her feel the life
of the upper class. Soon, Patrick’s secretary came in with a dress.
Pearl looked at the brand. It was an international brand. She entered the bathroom and
took a shower. She washed away all the dirt and humiliation that Gabriella had left on
her body.
She looked herself in the mirror. Her slapped face had reddened. But that couldn’t stop
hide her beauty.
Thinking of the humiliation that she had faced, she clenched her fists. Because she
came from a poor family, everyone could bully her.
She did want to live such life anymore. Now, she had the golden opportunity right in
front of her.
She wanted to be with Patrick!
The thoughts of her becoming a Hart, and Gabriella and Olive’s step mother made her
smile.
Patrick has returned to the presidential suite after the party. He drank a lot of wine and
fell on the bed.
His phone rang, and it was Monica calling. He didn’t answer the call. Since the last time
he had slapped her outside the hotel, Monica had been making trouble with him.
Monica had the capital. I’m recent years, she had used her connections to secure
Patrick lots of buisness deals. But he still couldn’t forget his ex–wife, and that made
Monica furious.
The phone was so loud that Patrick immediately turned it off, ignoring Monica.
He took out his wallet and stared at the picture in it. In the photo was Olive’s mother,
Trisha.
The picture was taken on a certain summer afternoon, Trisha was sitting on wicker chair
which was covered with flowers, she held a medical book.
Olive looked so much like her. Patrick’s fingers fondly caressed every inch of Trisha’s
eyebrows.
Pearl walked out of the bathroom and came to the bedside. Patrick was already asleep,
but he murmured Trisha’s
name.
Pearl reached out and took off Patrick’s clothes. Patrick though in his forties, had been
exercising frequently. His muscles hadn’t slack at all, and he was mature and powerful.
Patrick suddenly grabbed her and said,
“Who are you?”
Pearl didn’t expect Patrick to wake up, she panicked,
“Uncle, it’s me, I…”
“Trisha, are you back?”
Patrick pulled Pearl into his arms and pressed her under him.
Chapter 32 Many Woman Around Him
***
Olive heard about Gabriella’s violent beating of Pearl. The plastic sisters really couldn’t
stand the test at all. Neither of them disappointed her.
Olive didn’t feel the slightest sympathy for Pearl. Pearl could have lived with dignity, but
she was greedy and vain. Olive planned to go see Pearl, but Derrick saw her and then
walked to her.
“Olly, I finally found you.”
“Derrick, why are looking for me?”
Derrick grabbed Olive’s little hand and said,
“Let’s go. I wanna take you to see someone.”
Olive quickly avoided his pull and took a step back.
“Derrick, you look so impatient. Don’t touch me, if you want me to go with you.”
Derrick obviously was in a good mood, he didn’t care much about her attitude. He took
his hands away from her and said,
“Let’s go then.”
Olive followed.
They arrived at the door of a luxurious room. Derrick pursed his lips,
“Olive, see for yourself.”
Olive looked into the room. There was a smell of smoke inside. They were all Los
Angeles dignitaries. Several men were playing cards, amongst them was a familiar
figure, Elvis Augustine.
He hadn’t gone home for two days.
