Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 1372

"You said he sees me like an uncle, so why would I hurt him?" Luther asked as he casually put his hands in his pockets. "Instead of suspecting me, why don't you ask for my help? I could help you find him."

Pearl felt disappointed. She thought there were only two possible reasons for his relaxed attitude: Either he had kidnapped Darius, or he had never really cared about Darius. Even after four years together, Darius was just a tool to him.

Pearl hated him, no matter the truth.

"Never mind then." She turned to go back inside. But as her hand touched the doorknob, Luther spoke up.

"You might regret going in there."

Pearl clenched her teeth and spun around, furious. "Why can't you just say what you mean? Why do you keep making these veiled threats?"

Luther smiled, his expression still seeming innocent.

When Pearl had lost her memory, she trusted him because he seemed like a good person with a mature demeanor. His kindness had been reassuring.

It was only after her memories returned that Luther, once charming and warm, revealed his darker side.

"Did you know someone once jumped off this roof?" Luther said abruptly, looking off into the distance.

Pearl was not in the mood for small talk. "Just tell me what you want."

Luther chose a chair and sat down, patting the seat next to him invitingly. "Why don't we sit and talk?"

Pearl didn't sit. Instead, she stepped back and crossed her arms, keeping her distance.
