Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 262

Richard scowled at Pearl, his concern evident. "Don't do it again and make me worry."

When Pearl saw his terrified look, she smiled mischievously. "What would you have done if it had been me in there?"

"I would have gouged out their eyes and thrown them into the sea," Richard responded with a fierce tone, but his underlying protective concern for Pearl was unmistakable.

Pearl chuckled confidently. "Well, it wasn't me. I'm smarter than most people." She paused for a moment before asking, "But how did you know it wasn't me in there?"

Pearl and Sophia shared some similarities in appearance, making them easily mistaken for each other.

Without even blinking, Richard answered casually, "Her hair is different." Sophia had smooth, straight hair, while Pearl's was black, glossy, and wavy. Additionally, their temperaments were distinct.

Pearl then remembered that the people in the room were naked and quipped, "You didn't peek at her, did you?"

Richard's expression changed, but it wasn't one of embarrassment. Rather, it conveyed deep disgust and disdain. "She's not my type."

He had quickly discerned that it was Sophia's scheme and that Pearl had narrowly avoided being drawn into it. This revelation left him thoroughly disgusted.

Respecting Richard's feelings, Pearl refrained from teasing him further. Instead, she took his hand and returned to the downstairs hall with him.

"Yeah, Sophia will never do that kind of vulgar and shameful thing! Someone must be behind this!"

Their description of the incident as vulgar and shameful stung Sophia, but she remained resolute, having faced numerous hardships before.

However, Pearl's unexpected laughter caught the attention of the crowd, leaving them bewildered as to why she found the situation amusing.

"Are you absolutely sure you want to tempt fate, Sophia?" Pearl's words served as a final warning to Sophia. If she persisted in causing a scene so audaciously, she would ultimately pay the price.

But Sophia couldn't accept such a defeat and insisted on implicating Pearl.
