Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 11

Sean was caught off guard. He then smiled awkwardly. “Please don’t.” When they got to the office, he dived into work while Pearl spent the whole day at the security booth again. On the third day, it was Hanzel Waldorf’s turn. Hanzel was a mega-celebrity with millions of fans. Today happened to be his birthday and also the tenth anniversary of his debut. He was busy rehearsing for tonight’s concert and had no time for Pearl. The Waldorfs would be attending the concert that night too. Abby arrived at the Waldorf residence in the afternoon. After waking up from her nap, Pearl went downstairs. Abby smiled and went up to her. “Hey, we’re heading to the mall to buy some clothes and a gift for Hanzel. Want to come with us?” After dwelling on it, Pearl agreed to go with them. At the mall, Abby then led Pearl to a branded women’s clothing store. “I’m sure you’d look stunning in a dress since you’re so pretty, Pearl.” The guards were waiting for them at the entrance. Abby glanced at them before picking out a dark green dress. “This is nice. Why don’t you try it on?” Pearl noticed that the dress would make her look old. Abby picked another dress when Pearl remained quiet. “How about this one instead?” Pearl narrowed her eyes at the skimpy dress. She said straightforwardly, “Abby, if you don’t like me, you can just stop pretending. You don’t have to use such methods. Although I come from a village, my taste in clothes is no worse than yours.” “Pearl, I think you’ve misunderstood me…” Abby’s face became dark. She had assumed that Pearl knew nothing about fashion since she came from a village. She thought Pearl only wore ordinary clothes. This was unexpected. Pearl ignored Abby and continued browsing the dresses in the store, asking the salesperson to pack up the clothes she liked. When it was time to pay, she took out her phone. Suddenly, a person handed the cashier a black card. “Swipe this.” It was Richard. His handsome face stunned the cashier. After a moment, she hurriedly accepted the black card. “Thank you,” Pearl said. Richard said indifferently, “Don’t get me wrong. I’m only doing what Dad told me to.” He turned and left, leaving Pearl speechless. Abby saw the exchange between them and clenched her fists in anger. As they left the mall, the b*dyguards behind them struggled with the shopping bags. Today’s expenses were over 400 thousand dollars. Mobius said calmly, “Some people are so impudent and spend money like water. As expected from those who come from small places. They just don’t know how to behave themselves.” He wanted to take revenge on Pearl for calling him a kid the other day. Though he was the youngest Waldorf, he was already eighteen. Abby chimed in before Pearl could speak. “Mobius, you can’t say such things. Pearl was just doing some light shopping.” “There’s nothing light about this,” he replied. Pearl snorted and retorted calmly, “Did I use your money?” Mobius became embarrassed. “It’s my brother’s money.” “Yeah, it’s your brother’s. He’s not complaining, so why are you?” She got into the car. A few people behind her chuckled. Pearl was unexpectedly so pushy and unforgiving. She really was interesting.
