Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354 

Blake knew Ezra very well, and he was aware of the risks involved in Pearl’s plan. He also recognized that Pearl’s actions might even infuriate Ezra. 

Smirking, Pearl said, “I’ve thought it through. Although he’s forbidden me from returning to Enswood, he can’t keep an eye on me all the time. You can tell him that Glenn has borrowed your helicopter for some fun. When Master Ezra asks about me, just say that I’ve been staying here with you.” 

Pearl was the only one who could come up with such a bold idea. 

Heaving a sigh, Blake commented, “I don’t know who you take after. You’re so stubborn and willful.” 

Stunned, Pearl tried to figure that out. Her father, James, had always been gentle and had a knack for mediating conflicts when he was in town. It led her to believe that she might have inherited her mother’s fiery temper. 

“Stop hesitating, Blake. It’s a deal!” 

Blake agreed, even though it would be the first time he had ever told such a big lie to Ezra. Yet, he felt surprisingly calm, almost exhilarated by the thrill of doing something forbidden. 

Coincidentally, Blake’s helicopter was at Glenn’s place, so Pearl headed there. 

When Glenn saw Pearl, a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes. “Blake just called me. Are you planning to sneak back to Enswood on this private helicopter?” 

“Yeah, I haven’t been back there in a long time, and I miss the people and things there,” Pearl replied eagerly, eager to return to Richard as quickly as possible. 

Glenn couldn’t help but chuckle. “You don’t need to explain. I know it must be because of Richard.” 

Acknowledging it, Pearl smiled at Glenn. “Yes, absence does make the heart grow fonder.” 

“Mhm, you’re right,” Glenn agreed, but a trace of sadness clouded his gaze as he stared at the fallen leaves on the ground. 

Sensing that something might be bothering him, Pearl decided not to press further. “Alright, I won’t keep you any longer. Bye.” 

After getting the private helicopter, she was about to leave. 

“Pearl,” suddenly Glenn stopped her. She turned around abruptly, her charming face a 

painting in his eyes. 

He wanted to ask if she would have fallen in love with him had he met her first, but the words wouldn’t come out. Instead, he simply said, “Call me if you need anything. Safe travels.” 

He had resolved to be her friend and offer help whenever she needed it. 

“Okay, bye!” 

Unaware of this, Pearl continued on her way, not noticing the usually bright and optimistic Glens had suddenly become melancholic behind her.
