Mysterious Mr.Richard

The screen wasn't bright, but the moment Pearl saw "Zellweger Group", she still felt that her eyes were stung. She became so emotional that she almost broke down.

"It's really Zellweger Group." She gritted her teeth.

"You've suspected Richard's mom before?"

"Besides her, is there anyone else from his family who hates me? She's the only one who may do this."

Ethan's gaze landed on her hands, saying, "If I remember it correctly, you told me before that Richard's mom once talked to you privately at that time, as his brother had a car accident." "Yes," she frowned, "He has a brother five years younger than him, who would be the heir of Zellweger Group without that car accident. Richard... Richard Zellweger told me about this." Pearl called him by his full name, changing her words awkwardly and deliberately.

Ethan looked at her thoughtfully, "He's five years younger than Richard and was still a teenager seven years ago. How can you be so sure that he would be the heir?"

At that time, Casper Zellweger, was only 16 years old, a teenager.

"Richard told me that his brother'd showed great talent in management since young. Their mother had always raised him as the heir."

"He was really interested in running a company at such a young age?"

"I have no idea. I don't know much about their family."

He pondered, "When I was young at home, I did hear my parents talking about the Zellweger family."

The Louise and the Zellweger family were both included in the Four Great Households of Kityall City.

"And what did they say?"

"When their father, Wilson, divorced their mother Helena, Richard's grandma was very dissatisfied. She withdrew most of his shares and drove Wilson out of the company."

It was well-known that Richard's grandmother, Cicely Zellweger, was the true owner of Zellweger Group. Richard had never been close to his parents since young, only close to Cicely. "You think that my incident has something to do with Cicely?" Pearl asked.

"No," Ethan denied, "I mean, after Helena got divorced, she continued to stay in the Zellweger Mansion as the hostess."

"After all, she gave birth to two sons named Zellweger."

"Yeah, that's what I meant. All the shares that Cicely took back from Wilson are still in her hands."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Pearl didn't understand business management.

Ethan said, "There aren't many true feelings when it comes to political marriage. It's clear that Helena just wants the company. She's not from the Zellweger family, so she can only rely on her two sons after divorce. Do you understand what I mean?"

Pearl would be a fool if she still didn't understand by now.

"That's why when Casper got into a car accident, Helena stared to placed all her hopes on Richard."

And it was why she went to talk to Pearl in the uni.

Being silent for a while, Ethan said: "This is just my speculation."

After all, to do such a thing to her son's girlfriend in order to make him return home, wasn't something that an ordinary person could do. However, Pearl was sure that it was Helena. It was highly possible that she was the one behind the incident, based on the current evidence.

"Ridiculous." She felt that everything was ironic.

Her suffering in the past seven years were all because of Richard. Since this was the case, why should she feel guilty? The ones who should feel guilty were the entire Zellweger family.

"Calm down. Although the car is under the name of Zellweger Group, you still can't be sure who exactly used the car back then. I'll let Rickey investigate it as soon as possible." Ethan poured a cup of tea for

her.

Pearl nodded and held the tea. her head was down and she kept silent. Under the dim light, her beautiful face looked desolate. Seeing this, Ethan couldn't help but frown.

"We will find it out. Don't be afraid."

"Sure, I'm not afraid."

"My mother invited the Zellweger family for her birthday party at the end of this month. Helena will probably come. I'll see what kind of person she is for you."

Hearing this, Pearl's gaze darkened a little, saying: "No, I'll go with you."

Ethan had already told her about Victoria's birthday, but she refused previously. She could pretend to be Ethan's wife his family, but if she couldn't face the whole high society in Kityall City by such fake identity. Her plan was to say that she would be busy in the hospital so that she couldn't attend it. It was enough to prepare a birthday gift for Victoria.

She thought about it again. She had been hiding in fear for seven years. If she continued to be like this, she probably would never be able to find out the truth until death.

"Okay then." Ethan answered nonchalantly.

He rarely refused Pearl's requests.

It was very difficult to meet such a friend who would treat her like a family member. Ethan was family to Pearl.

"Ethan, thanks very much."

"Oh, are you touched?" Ethan immediately switched to his usual, playful demeanour, "Do you decide to give yourself to me?"

"Just keep dreaming." The rims of her eyes were still wet.

"We're already married, so what are you going to do? Divorce?"

"Shut up!" She picked up the pillow behind her and threw it at him.

"Alright, that's enough. I've been analysing the situation for ages that I'm now starving. Have you ordered anything? It's your treat today!" Ethan said.

Pearl rolled her eyes on him, "I'm so poor now and you even ask me to treat you? Ethan, be a man, would you!"

"Well, my wallet is cleaner than my face." Ethan said.

"Come on, haven't you received the research funds? It's totally 50 thousand dollars!"

"But yesterday I bought a Dior handbag for my ex-girlfriend."

"You just won't change!"

Having known Ethan for seven years, Pearl knew his personality very well. He didn't like to be sentimental and emotional. And he could not even accept a word of thanks properly.0000000
