Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 287

Pearl blinked with disappointment while looking at Richard.

Rubbing her head affectionately, Richard replied, "Yes, I'm aware of it."

"I want to find my mother before getting engaged."

"Don't you hate her?"

Pearl shook her head. "I don't remember much about her because she left when I was very young, but I know she's a gentle and kind woman. She wouldn't have given up on my father and me so easily, and I suspect there's more to her disappearance."

Richard understood Pearl's desire to have her mother present at her engagement and marriage ceremonies. Though her father had passed away, there were still some clues left concerning her mother's whereabouts.

Naturally, Richard didn't object. "Okay, we'll search for her together."

Pearl beamed with gratitude. "Thank you, Richard."

"It's nothing. Let's go home. I think you can ask my dad about what happened at that time. Maybe he can provide some clues."

Pearl nodded, and they headed to the Waldorf Residence, as it was the end of the workday.

Dustan, sitting on the sofa and reading newspapers, couldn't help but feel a touch of melancholy as he watched the couple.

Pearl approached Dustan respectfully and greeted him before cautiously asking, "Mister Dustan, I heard that you were close to my parents. Could you tell me about those days?"

Seeing Pearl's eager expression, Dustan couldn't refuse her request. Despite it being a painful topic for him, he was willing to share.

"Your parents were truly kind people, but unfortunately... your mother went missing when you were two years old. James had a tough time raising you on his own."

Pearl's brows furrowed as her suspicions grew deeper.

"By the way, do you know anything about your mother's family?" Dustan suddenly brought up the topic, catching Pearl off guard.

However, Pearl chose honesty, as she could sense Dustan's genuine concern for her. She withheld the fact that she had met the Jordans, only revealing what she had discovered. "Based on the information I found, it's the Jordans in Bodgow."

Investigating the Jordans had been relatively straightforward, as they were a prominent and wealthy family in Bodgow.

Dustan nodded in acknowledgment. "Yes, it's the Jordans from Bodgow. But they always looked down on your father. So—"

Suddenly, the housekeeper hurried in, interrupting Dustan. "Mister Dustan, a group of people unexpectedly arrived and wishes to meet Miss Pearl."
