My Ex-Husband Wants Me Again

Chapter 148

Connor did not expect Pearl to witness such an awkward scene. He was instantly embarrassed.

"You've clearly done a good deed. Why are you still embarrassed?" Pearl teased him with a smile

Pearl glanced at his wet clothes and added. "Your clothes are wet. Change out of them so that you don't catch a cold"

Connor touched his clothes and replied nonchalantly. "It's fine. It'll dry in a while"

Pearl said nothing

Mason came in with two paper bags in his hand as he said, "Ms Woolery. I've bought the clothes"

Pearl gestured, and Mason immediately understood what she meant. He stepped forward and stuffed the paper bag into Connor's arms before he exclaimed, "Ms. Woolery asked me to buy this from the mall nearby. It should. Try it." Connor looked at the clothes in the paper bag and asked in shock, "Pearl"

[ What's this?"

Pearl said calmly, "Go change into it. We still have work to do.

"How much is it? I'll transfer it to you. Connor insisted.

As Connor spoke, he took out his phone and dropped a toffee.

He took it and was stunned

Looking at the toffee. Pearl could not help but laugh. She feh she probably could not get over this joke and took the candy from Connor's hand and said. "This is enough"

"How could I possibly. Connor stammered.

Mason knew Pearl was in a foul mood today after meeting with the obnoxious Lucas. It was not easy for her to calm down. Mason was afraid that Connor would anger Pearl again, and he would not be able to bear the consequences. Mason quickly pulled Connor upstairs as he said, "The discounted clothes I bought weren't that expensive. Besides, you were so heroic today. Just treat this as a reward from M. Woolery"

Mason continued to persuade Connor earnestly. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Isn't Ms. Woolery your master? Then what's wrong with her buying clothes as an elder for her disciple! It's so normal."

He pushed Connor into the changing room without any hesitation.

Pearl peeled off the toffee wrapper and stuffed the sweet into her mouth. Her mouth was filled with the sweet dairy taste instantly.

Connor quickly changed his clothes and went downstairs

The clothes that Mason picked looked good. They were simple and casual. The orange T-shirt matched with beige casual pants. The color was fresh and bright, simple and neat. It looked like the summer laste of orange soda Of course, Connor had the look and figure to compliment his outfit,

Connor could wear a plastic bag to Panin Fashion Week and still look good in it, let alone dressed in casuals

Pearl sized Connor up and nodded in admiration, "You look good."

Connor blushed again and touched his head in embarrassment.

Although Connor had already bribed Pearl with a toffee, she did not relax his demands on him.

Connor started preparing the chicken chowder first. However, the vegetables were placed in the broth too quickly, causing the vegetables to leave a lingering stench in the soup. Pearl insisted Connor stan over again with a straight face.

Her disciple was so frightened that he trembled and immediately prepared the dish from scratch again.

The second time was perfect. Sering

g Pearl nod in satisfaction, Connor heaved a sigh of relief and revealed a cheerful and relaxed smile.

Although it was a rainy day today, there were many customers. Many of them were there to hide from the rain. They were too embarrassed to come in and stand around and decided to order drinks. There were not enough wait staff around that day, and the restaurant started getting busy Peard took off her apron and went to the front of the restaurant to help. Chapter 145

Her appearance attracted a lot of attention and lifted the atmosphere of the restaurant even further

Past had wanted in keep a low profile, but she looked too dazzling.

After work, Pearl came straight from the office. She did not even remove her makeup. She had smoky-pink eye shadow, rose-red hair, and red lips. She poursed an exquisite aura of a mature and intelligent woman.

She had also dressed casually today. She was wearing a red sleeveless tight tank top, a ordinary black high heels.

"Oh my god, is this woman a waitress? She's so beautiful"

"How could she be a waitress? Have you ever seen such a beautiful staff? And look at her asta. She looks exquisite. She was probably born with a silver spoon. She's either the owner or the owner's slaughter"

"I'm so envious of her figure! She's tall and lean, and she looks very p proportionate, Look at the curves on her shoulders, neck, and arms. It's umply perfect

The girls were all praising her non-stop, while the men stared at real long and hard.

Darren lifted the curtains and was shocked by the scene outside.

"Oh my god, why are they fil

filming her?" he asked flusteredly,

Connor ran around in circles, scooping out the crab meatballs he just made. A layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He pressed the bell to serve the dishes, wiped his hands, and looked in the direction where Darren pointed. He saw the quests in the dining room eating while holding their phones and openly taking pictures of Pearl There was also a group of men surrounding the cour

counter. They were all smiling cheekily at Pearl and were short of touching her.

Connor frowned deeply.

What was going on! It felt as if they were watching monkeys in the zoo.

Connor walked straight out of the kitchen and pushed through the crowd. He squeezed to the front of the restaurant, grabbed Pearl's hand before everyone, and dragged her y

Pearl looked at the back of Connor's head in shock, then looked down at his hand that was holding hers

Everyone looked on in confusion. The noisy hall suddenly fell silent for five seconds. When Connor brought Pearl into the kitchen and disappeared behind the curtain, a commotion started outside

h my god, what did 1 just see?"

"Is that handsome man in a white chef's apron a model? I want all his information

"Don't you think that boy looks like Peter? I almost thought that my idol had appeared just now, but Peter isn't as tall as h Peleri

as him, but he does look like

"Wow, he's so handsome! Let me make a guess. That beauty must be his girlfriend. Is he jealous? This is completely a scene from an idol drama" "My god! Both of them are so good-looking! They look so sweet and close together as if they were siblings.

All kinds of chatter could be heard from the front of the restaurant. The sound of the wind and rain outside was loud but did not drown out the commotion. The restaurant was even livelier than a dance hall, making the waiter's ears buzz.

Connor led Pearl into the kitchen stoically and asked her with con

toncern. Tearl, are you alright?" His expression ch

changed in a second. The stoic lion from before immediately turned into a meek sheep

Tm doc. Fortunately, you brought me in: Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to control my temper, Pearl replied.

Pearl hated being surrounded by others. She was not afraid of being photographed. However, Hubert would have to go through the trouble of getting everyone to delete the photos of her. If not for the fact that the restaurant was too busy today, she would not have gone to the front of the

restaurant in serve others.

She also has a stake in the restaurant. It was not a good idea for her to flare her temper and affect the restaurant's business.

She called Hubert and summoned the restaurant manager over. She asked him to gather all the umbrellas in the restaurant and to rent the

on the phone.

Connor watched as Pearl methodically managed affairs. However, his mind was filled with what Pearl had said to Hubert on

"Hubert, numerous photos of me were taken at the Food Delight Diner earlier. Help me deal with it. Keep an eye on what is circulating on the internet. Don't let the photos leak out, Pearl instructed.

Connor filtered out all kinds of messy thoughts in his mind and wondered if he could keep the photo of her he had on his phone.
