Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483 

“Alright, there’s nothing I can say if you want to get engaged, but I have a request. After you do that, I need to pull myself out of this.” 

Eric couldn’t stand having to deal with Richard, but Pearl smiled, so he swallowed what he was going to say. He didn’t want to be Pearl’s bootlicker and kept following her around. 

“Alright, don’t worry. Your reputation will be intact.” Pearl suddenly remembered Jenny and asked, “By the way, There’s something I never asked. Did Jenny do something recently?” Eric’s head ached when he thought of Jenny. “Let’s not talk about her. She had been calling me crying. I can’t stand it anymore and got a new number. I’ll send my number to you.” 

Pearl knew Jenny’s actions and behavior. Once she lost Eric’s protection, she would have lost all her trump cards, so she wouldn’t be stupid enough to offend him. 

As for Richard… Richard hadn’t been on her side since a long time ago. 

“Do you really like Jenny?” 

Eric scratched his head and hesitated. “I think since we’ve been together for three years. Although she was a celebrity I paid to live with, I still have some feelings for her.” 

“Do you know her history with Richard?” Pearl asked. Eric was her friend, so even though they weren’t best friends, she still hoped Eric wasn’t tricked by Jenny. 

Knowing Pearl was going to ask that, Eric replied, “I’m the son of an oil baron. Do you think I didn’t look into her past before getting involved with her?” He then looked at Richard and smiled. “Also, when I was with her, I knew she hadn’t broken up with Richard yet, but I don’t have principles. I just get what I like.” 

Richard’s eyes turned a little darker but quickly returned to looking calm. 

“Do you know about her and Hugo then?” Pearl rubbed her hand anxiously on the blanket. Hearing this, Richard sighed. Why would she say something like that? 

Pearl was worried Richard would pick up the knife for fruits and stab it into his chest, so she changed the subject. 

At the mention of Hugo, hatred flashed across Eric’s eyes, but he was still smiling. “Naturally.” 

“If you’re still not angry about that, you should change your name to wuss,” Richard remarked. 

Eric’s smile froze. 

“You’re so nice. You’re not even angry about that, but if it was Richard…” He would not only kill the man, he would take her head too. Pearl didn’t finish her sentence as she had sensed the sharp glares aimed at her. 

“Although I’m her boyfriend, I’m just annoyed by the betrayal. That doesn’t mean I love her, okay?” 

“If I were to make her my enemy, would you stand against me?” she asked.
