Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 288

Puzzled, Pearl asked, "They want to see me?"

The housekeeper nodded, describing, "There are over ten men who look like bodyguards, dressed in fine attire. I have a feeling they're not your average folks."

Suddenly, a daring idea dawned on Pearl. "Please go and see what they want, Miss Pearl."

Pearl nodded and went out, concerned about causing undue trouble for the Waldorfs.

When the leader of the group spotted Pearl, a smile appeared on his otherwise cold face. "You must be Miss Pearl, correct? Mister Allan has an appointment with you and sent me to escort you."

Pearl recollected that she had agreed to visit the Jordans in a few days, but her plans had been delayed by a month due to her recent busy schedule.

With a chuckle, she replied, "You must be the butler. I'm genuinely sorry, but I can't go right now because I have some pressing matters to attend to."

The butler smiled back. "Not to worry, Miss Pearl. Mister Allan mentioned that I should persuade you to accompany me even if you decline."

It was evident that Pearl was expected to go, regardless of her wishes. Frowning, she felt that this wasn't Allan's usual style.

Furthermore, since the butler worked for the Jordans, it was likely that the decision was influenced by other members of the family, perhaps even her grandfather, whom she had never met.

Pearl's expression turned inscrutable, her eyes narrowing. "Are you trying to force me?"

However, the butler remained unfazed. He glanced around and proposed, "Could we have some privacy? I need to speak with you alone."
