Pearl fought to hold back her tears, but she just couldn't help it. She blamed it on the cold weather for making her eyes dry.
She clicked on Richard's profile and unfriended him, proceeding to unfollow him on all social media platforms. She then opened a game and noticed his familiar profile picture, indicating that he was online.
Her heart raced, and she immediately switched to stealth mode. Richard rarely played games because of his busy work schedule, but they had played together a few times in the past.
Many people had added her because of her identity as Pearlbelle, and Richard, being possessive, had formed a close in-game relationship with her, spending a significant amount of time together.
Without thinking much, she checked his game records. Scrolling through the pages, she noticed that he had been playing with a girl recently. She played the support role exceptionally well, and the two of them were steadily ranking up together, showing great synergy.
Pearl couldn't quite pinpoint her feelings, but her fingers trembled, and she immediately removed him from her list of friends.
After that, a surge of emotions overwhelmed her, and she was consumed by darkness.

A few days later, Pearl and Hugo successfully held their engagement ceremony.
Gigi's facial scar had almost healed, and she expressed her desire to be the most beautiful bridesmaid when Pearl and Hugo got married.
Despite Pearl's untreatable illness, she refused to interfere with Richard's commitment and Hugo's plans, avoiding any discussions about her own marriage with Gigi.
Lately, Hugo seemed to be getting busier and was spending less time at home. Pearl, curious about his activities, asked him when he returned early one day, "What have you been up to lately, Hugo?"
