Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 851

Pearl approached the table and noticed an unlocked diary sitting on it. She picked it up and began to read.

The elegant handwriting belonged to her mother, detailing her battle with illness. As Pearl read on, she could sense the weakening of her mother's words, reflecting her declining health.

But what struck Pearl the most were the recurring expressions of longing for her, written at the end of nearly every page.

[Pearl, my daughter. I miss and love you.]

Tears welled up in Pearl's eyes as she traced the words on the page. But it was the letter on the final page that truly broke her.

[Pearl, I might have passed away when you read this letter. I know that it's wrong of me to leave you without telling you, but I did it for your sake. You're still young, and I didn't want you to sacrifice your life for mine.]

[I love you very much, Pearl. As a mother, deciding what's best for you has been the hardest yet the right choice. I chose to let go in exchange for your freedom. I'll always watch over you, even if we can't see each other again. Time is something I have very little of, and Hugo is the only one who could have changed that. So, I chose to embrace my fate early, leaving peacefully before you had the chance to come here.]

[Gigi has been very good to me, a true friend. She's stuck by my side with unwavering patience and has never left me. Her kindness is genuine, and I appreciate her deeply. I'm aware of her job at Dark Bar, and I silently approved because I know the place is under your care. Please, look out for her and treat her well. After I'm gone, I trust you to care for her as if she were your own sister. Finally, I hope you always stay true to yourself, never letting anyone dictate your path or bowing down for the sake of others. Pearl, my dear daughter, I miss you and love you deeply. Love, your mom, Beah.]
