Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 277

Jenny smiled innocently, so Pearl couldn't tell if she really needed it or was just trying to order her around.

"Just get it delivered," Pearl suggested.

Jenny shook her head. "Deliveries are unsanitary. I would feel better if someone went and got it."

"Why don't you go yourself?" Pearl pondered this thought but didn't voice it aloud.

As if she could read Pearl's mind, Jenny gave an awkward look.

Considering it was just this once, Pearl decided to be helpful. She smiled and agreed, "Alright, I'll go get it."

Jenny beamed in response. "Thank you, Pea."

With her bag in tow, Pearl coincidentally ran into Richard as he returned to the office. Before she could wave, he seemed not to notice her and walked straight by.

Observing him, Pearl witnessed Richard approaching Jenny's desk. He bent down to say something to her, and Jenny immediately covered her mouth and smiled.

Pearl hoped she was simply overthinking things. She shook her head and left for the nearby cafe.

It was rush hour, so Pearl's car became stuck in traffic after picking up the coffee. As she watched the seconds tick by, anxiety and worry crept in.

Suddenly, her phone rang, and she answered to hear Richard's voice. "Where are you, Pearl?"

She replied, "I'm getting coffee."
