Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 1464

Joelle purposely started avoiding Darius. She always said that she had grown up and they should keep some distance from each other, no matter how many times Darius questioned her.

However, in the days that followed, Darius began drinking more frequently.

Joelle stopped thinking about the past and looked at Darius. But she couldn't find the words to speak. "It's okay, Darius. I'm fine. Please don't force me. I'm begging you."

It was the first time Joelle had ever begged him, leaving Darius speechless.

The silence between them lasted for a long time. Finally, Joelle broke it. "I'll go now if there's nothing else."

"Wait."

Joelle's hand froze on the doorknob.

"I can explain what happened back then... I was drunk that day. I..."

Joelle turned around, trying her best to hide her pale face. "Dar, I was young then. I don't even remember it. Let's leave it in the past. You'll always be like a brother to me."

She didn't say much but managed to widen the gap between them even more.

Darius nodded and said nothing more.

Joelle had no idea how she made it back to class. When she noticed everyone looking at her strangely, she forced a smile.
