Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 1471

Joelle didn't want to continue with this topic, so she shook her head and pretended she didn't mind. "No. I think our relationship is very normal."

"We've always had a normal relationship. I'm saying the way we interact isn't."

Joelle's heart skipped a beat as the memory of what happened between Darius and the other girl after they got drunk flashed in her mind. She suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness. "Don't think so, you're overthinking. Maybe you're too busy so we don't have a lot of time to talk."

"Is that really it?" Darius didn't buy it. "Why do I have a feeling that you're avoiding me? You're making it too obvious, Joelle. Can you tell me what's on your mind?"

Joelle shook her head. "Nothing. I really think you're overthinking."

"If you won't be honest with me, don't blame me for doing something to you." Darius walked closer to her, put his hand behind her waist, and pulled her into his arms. "I'm giving you one last chance. Are you going to tell me or not?"

This was the first time they were so close to each other after the previous incident. Joelle felt a little dizzy when she smelled his familiar scent. She wanted to push him away but realized she didn't have the energy. Maybe she was too nervous and forgot how to do it.

"You're rebelling now?" Darius moved closer to her face, and the sudden surge of memories made Joelle turn pale and close her eyes.

"Dar."

That pulled him back to reality, and he let go of her. Joelle quickly took a few steps back to put some distance between them.

"I don't want to continue like this." Darius sounded tired. "Please tell me what's on your mind, no matter what it's about, okay?"

Joelle stared at her toes and didn't say anything for the longest time. Hearing the man sigh, she finally looked up.
