Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1356

"I've been wanting to repay Luther for his kindness after I woke up from the accident. So, I decided to work at his company as a manager," Pearl said.

Richard looked pensive upon hearing this.

Before Pearl lost her memories, Luther clearly wanted her to be more than just an employee; he wanted her to be his partner. Pearl's memory loss must have seemed like a golden opportunity for him.

It all clicked together.

Noticing Richard's troubled expression, Pearl grew concerned. "Is something wrong? Do you feel okay?"

"I'm fine," Richard replied, though he decided to keep his suspicions to himself until he had solid proof.

When they arrived at the company, Richard unusually didn't follow Pearl. After saying goodbye, he walked away.

Watching him leave, Pearl felt an unexpected stare on her.

She turned to find Luther waiting at the company's entrance. Only after entering did she notice his warm smile.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Luther asked, a common enough greeting.

Normally, Pearl would have responded with light conversation. However, Richard's recent warnings made her hesitate, and she found herself unable to reply.
