Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 895

Pearl rolled her eyes at Richard. It was all part of the gradual process, bound to happen sooner or later. Being nervous ahead of time wasn't a big deal.

"Of course not. I'll give you the most spectacular wedding," Richard assured her.

Pearl wasn't impressed by the grandeur. Even though she had control of his money now, she still felt hesitant to spend it. "Don't go overboard," she snorted.

"How can you say that? My wife deserves the best," Richard whispered in her ear. "Tell me, what kind of wedding dress do you like?"

"Number 36, number 36!"

The announcement from the staff interrupted their conversation.

They tidied up their clothes and held hands as they walked in.

As they walked out of the marriage bureau with their certificates, Pearl hadn't fully grasped the reality of being a married woman.

"Why do I feel like I've aged ten years right after getting the marriage certificate?" Pearl expressed her exasperation. Being married and being single were vastly different. She didn't want to be addressed as 'Mrs.' just yet. After all, she was only twenty-four, in the prime of her life. She couldn't stand the kids calling her ‘Mrs.’

Seeing her frustration, Richard grabbed her waist and said, "Nah, you'll always be a kid to me."

Being labeled as a kid sounded off to Pearl. She looked at his smug smile and couldn't shake the feeling that he was acting out of character.

Richard had always been serious and composed, rarely cracking a smile. How could he suddenly be grinning ear to ear like this?

"Are you sure you're the Richard I know?" Pearl blurted out, unable to contain her curiosity.
