Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1485

"What about me?" Darius suddenly interjected with a question.

"You... You've always been like a big brother to me." Joelle heard a faint chuckle from above and looked up, but Darius's smile seemed forced.

"Have I always been just a brother to you?"

Joelle hesitated to respond. "I've always seen you as my brother. Don't you see me as your little sister?"

For some reason, she could vaguely sense something. After all, they grew up together, and she somewhat understood Darius's mood. "Or maybe..." Joelle's face turned pale as she remembered what happened years ago. "Do you see me as..."

Darius's heart sank as he saw her pale face. "No, I've always treated you like my sister. Don't worry. I don't have any other thoughts about you."

As Darius reassured her, Joelle felt relieved, but at the same time, she felt like something was missing.

"Oh, by the way, how's your relationship with that girl progressing lately?" Joelle changed the subject to lighten the mood, teasingly looking at him.

Darius's face instantly darkened. "I have nothing to do with her."

"Why not? She told me that you two were—" Joelle was about to finish her sentence when the car suddenly stopped, jolting her forward if it weren't for the seatbelt.

"Has she come to you? What did she say to you?"

"No, she didn't. It was that time after you drank too much, and I met you two on the road.

She said you liked her, but you guys aren't together yet."

After explaining everything in detail, Joelle thought the misunderstanding would be resolved, but Darius's face became even grimmer.
