NovelFinishChapter 1347 What mattered to Richard now was finding a way to help Pearl regain her memories, hoping this would bring back her feelings for him.
Upon hearing that he was about to have a father, Darius perked up. "How can I help?" "Just talk aboutto your mom," Richard suggested. "Say good things." "So, you wantto make things sound better than they are?" Darius sneered. Was Richard expecting him to do that without him doing anything? "No, I'll still do my part," Richard assured him. "But it would help if you could speak positively about me." Darius nodded, though he seemed reluctant. "And then?" "That's all I need from you. I'll handle the rest." It seemed simple enough.
