Chapter 568
After the initial shock, Sean felt like he had been hit by a massive blow. “Who are you…”
“Hello, Sean. I’m Drew Cooper.”
Drew? Sean found himself taken aback, he had no idea who this man was.
Once he had regained his composure, he asked, “Why do you look exactly like me?”
Drew seemed to be more accepting of their resemblance, but he was still amazed. “Could we be twins?”
“No, I’m a Waldorf! How could we possibly be twins?” Sean had set aside his usual calmness and friendly smile, replaced by an inexplicable sense of bewilderment and shock.
“I had a hard time believing it too, but after overhearing a conversation between Pearl and your mother, I sensed that something wasn’t right. So, we should get a DNA test to confirm whether we’re twins or just a bizarre coincidence.”
Drew was logical, and Pearl nodded in agreement. As for Sean, he was deep in thought and finally forced himself to agree with Drew’s suggestion.
Suddenly, he noticed the tear stains on Pearl’s face. “What happened? I’ve never seen you cry before. Did someone bully you?” Though it was meant as a jest, he was genuinely concerned.
“It’s nothing.” Pearl was reluctant to answer.
However, Drew became animated. “Nothing? Tell him, Pearl. That ungrateful Richard has forgotten all about his love for you. If you weren’t absolutely sure that he had lost his feelings, I’d have thought he was faking it. He just wanted to break up with you!”
Sean hadn’t been aware of this development. He had intended to inquire if Richard had
awakened, but it seemed that he had and had forgotten many things.
However, this was not necessarily a negative development for Sean. If Richard had fallen out of love with Pearl, then….
Suddenly, long–suppressed feelings surged to the surface.
With a smile, he remarked, “Don’t worry about him. Richard is ungrateful. How could he forget about you so easily? But Pearl, you have plenty of excellent men to choose from, don’t you?”
His teasing earned him a fierce glare from Pearl. “Alright, enough of that. Let’s head to the hospital for a DNA test now. While waiting for the results, you can visit Richard.”
Sean was willing to go, but his busy schedule prevented him. “I have an important meeting scheduled later. It’s related to the company’s future development. Since Richard fell ill and couldn’t attend the shareholders‘ meeting, the company employees have been worried about the company’s fate. I’ve been swamped lately, dealing with those crafty old men from the company while trying to reassure the staff.”
Indeed, he was quite occupied.
Pearl raised her brows. “Those people are causing trouble again, huh?”
2/2
“I suspect there’s someone inciting discord and deliberately creating tension within the company.” Sean’s expression turned gloomy.
Both of them knew who the likely culprit was.
“Well, it’s not like we don’t have a leader here. Hugo is so impatient.” Pearl’s eyes lit up, and she smirked. “Take me with you to the meeting. I own twenty–five percent of the shares in this company, so I believe I have the right to participate in the decision–making process.”
“Yes, but if they criticize you”
Pearl stood up, her smile gone. “I want to see who the troublemaker is… Do they think they can rebel just because Richard isn’t around?”
